A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life.
Started July 1st 2019 for contests, etc. as other blogs are filling up and have other purposes.

I'm starting a new blog because

Anything I'm not happy about or that I don't want in my main blog!
#997339 by Kåre Enga in Udon Thani

BOOK
Enga mellom fjella  (13+)
Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

is where I put my flash fictions. Maybe someday I'll figure it out and have enough good ones to publish. Ratings vary and some are hidden from view.

I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.

*Worry* MY THOUGHTS

I wish I weren't so riled up by the insanity of the last three years, the total incompetent response to coronavirus, the erosion of protections and human rights in the USA. Yes, this too shall pass, but it will pass over many a new-dug grave.

*Mountains* WEATHER

*Sun* 17°. 2 p.m. in Missoula
*Clouds* 9°. 4 p.m. in Buffalo
*Sun* 29°. 4 p.m. in Fayetteville, NC
*Sun* 12°. 1 p.m. in Port Townsend, WA

I have family in Buffalo, Fayetteville and Port Townsend.

*Baretree* IMAGES

One thick dandelion root with multiple leaves and a crown of 22 dandelions. Looked like a golden bouquet.

*Chicken* POULTRY

We play the agogô.

dada DAA dada DAA

Two notes:

one high, one low.

dada DAA dada DAA

Our bodies squeezed together,
ache a third,
to sing, to sigh, to moan,
to make our music sweeter.

... The entire poem is here: "April 8 prompt: the sound of a bell (Agogô)

*Reading* READING

"Guardian of the Veil" by Gregory Spencer, page 89.

*AsteriskBr* QUOTE

"There are stories in this waters ... tales of struggles and fears. I feel the voices between my fingers. I'm carrying their tears." p. 63

*CoffeeO* MY LIFE

Separation disorder? I mentioned this to Raelene on spacebook. I feel like all my friends have moved away. This brings back memories of being 12 ... and although I hadn't moved ... my friends had. I wasn't good at making new friends and my parents didn't help.

*Coffee* SENIOR CENTER and *CoffeeR* COFFEEHOUSE

Pulled pork? Hell yeah! I stood in line behind a red car.

*Angry* O PINIONS!

As I commented to Charlie ~ : "Well, they lied. Masks provide a physical distance (like in TAIWAN ... does anyone ever listen to me?). That said, there is no excuse for everyone to not have a mask. Taiwan is manufacturing 15 million per day. My friend Allen is allowed 9 per week. The USA can't even satisfy the needs of medical personnel ... after how long ... 6 weeks, 8 weeks?

I did see people (about 10) wearing masks in the grocery store today. Only one stocker had one on last week. Quite a mix of store bought and hand-made. People are getting the message ... a tad late imho.

And then there's the choice of word "social distancing". Turning off spacebook is social distancing. What they meant was physical distancing. Which is what masks and banning gatherings do!

Mark my words: some churches will be packed for Easter. *Angry*

*Cow* WATT'S GNUS

Bernie Sanders bows out of running for president. In a way that's good. IMHO, He's best fighting the Good Fight from outside the establishment. He's desperately needed. I do hope Biden realizes that the progressives need a voice on the ticket. Warren might do, but there are younger female progressives who might be suitable for the job as well.

*Meh* BLOGVILLE

I have been doing the Dew with the Dew Drop Inn poetry challenge. I'm not doing the 30DBC and I haven't been commenting as much as usual. That means I'm receiving very few views and hardly any comments.

A thank-you to those who have stopped by one of my blogs or reveiwed something since Fools Day: QPdoll , MirandaCookies COLLEGE SOON , Paul , Rhyssa , Katya the Poet , NOVAcatmando , SB Musing , concrete_angel, Cappucine , somik1, Spiritual Dawning and Elle - on hiatus .

For my blog "Nurture your Nature"
