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

BOOK

Anything I'm not happy about or that I don't want in my main blog!

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

FOLDER
Flash Fiction  (GC)
Short 300 word, more or less, "stories" .
#2190336 by Kåre Enga in Montana
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.

I needed to start a folder for contests as there are so many deadlines and details to remember.

Wet clothes festoon my room. They'll dry by morning or evening. It doesn't matter much. I have plenty of options now and this was the last batch except for some strays ... like maroon shirts I don't dare wash with anything else.

I don't have plans this week except to keep on keeping up.

Goals for the week of May 10-16:

1. Enter contests due by the 14th.
2. Write at least 1000 words for my silk punk story.
3. Look at ALL my partially written prose and poetry and write as much as I can.
4. Continue with my goal of uncluttering and cleaning. Clean out the fridge.
5. Call family and friends.

A comment left for Hooves re auctions and promises "Auctions Caution:

"I don't do raffles, auctions, etc. I do enter contests and that's an issue for me as I wait and wait.

I don't offer anything here specifically but then... I don't offer much anywhere. I get distracted and am not diligent enough to always pull through. I'm not exactly dependable. I can be... but anxiety, depression... yeah, all the excuses. So, I don't.

Years ago, on another planet that resembled this one, I supported a friend's effort with a neighborhood project teaching virtues to children. I bought food. Lots of it. It was a donation not an obligation. When someone suggested I keep track of my donation I balked. Another friend had to explain my madness to others. As I told folks... I would do it my way or not at all.

All of this suggests that I have 'issues'. And I do. I've had to deal with my own issues for a lifetime. It's not always pretty when I involve others so I try not to.

And I agree that sometimes it's wise to not mention names. The drama in life and on social media just isn't worth it."

Only 38 calm sunny degrees at 8:27 *Sun* but it will warm up this week *Smile*. 48 at 10:44.

I took my shower. Before noon, I'll hunt down friends and maybe bread and milk. I'm still drinking my boiled coffee. Strong with milk. I should probably eat.

I got up reasonably early today and the sunshine is energizing me.

54 degrees with sun and clouds at 1:15.

Sat with Kathi, Ben, Bill, Don, Phil, Dalton and Laxmi. A bit chilly but good to see everyone. I scored some 'meatloaf' which I have now finished. Time for some red velvet cake!

It's approaching 6 pm. and it's a pleasant 57 degrees. I lay down and rested and dreamed. It's now 8:14 pm. and 56 degrees approaching sunset at 8:59.

Note to self: the sun isn't coming as far into my room as much as it did in winter. My geraniums are starting to snooze and I should cut back on watering until early September when the sun returns.

Frustrated by facebook. Can't download a key photo to my chromebook which means I can't upload it here. Very frustrating.

I want it for a poem.

Now I'm eating yogurt because I ate too much already.
