Rated: 13+ · Book · Personal · #1311011
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.

Ferry boat between Solvorn and Ornes across the Lustrafjord i Sogn og Fjordane.




I'm starting a new blog because
BOOK
L'aura del Campo  (13+)
Online journal capturing the moment and the memory of moments. A meadow meditation.
#982524 by Kåre Enga in Montana
had over 1,200 entries and that was getting close to full. I don't want to trim it by deletion. I did that once, much to my dismay. Will be used more for poetry.

BOOK
Hoarfrosts from Hell  (GC)
Anything I'm not happy about or that I don't want in my main blog!
#997339 by Kåre Enga in Montana
is still hidden from the public and will remain so. It's more personal and full of angst. Was used for 30DBC for May 2020 and now used for Blogville.

BOOK
Enga mellom fjella  (13+)
Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.
#1317094 by Kåre Enga in Montana
was full... until the number of entries was increased. A mixed blog, mostly stories.

I'll be linking to
BOOK
On The Write Path  (13+)

BOOK
O Pinions!  (XGC)
May my opinions gather wind under their wings and fly, perchance to soar.
#1501776 by Kåre Enga in Montana
is for my opinions. *Laugh*

BOOK
Nurture your Nature  (13+)
Look around. Let Nature nurture your Soul. I record images I sense and share them here.
#1439094 by Kåre Enga in Montana
was set up for nature observations and musings.

 
BOOK
Watt's Gnus  (18+)
On topics and today's gnus. Definitely opinionated. Set to 18+ for a reason.
#1439092 by Kåre Enga in Montana
come out of a need to share interesting stuff I come across. When I was young I did a small newsletter named as such. (or was it column in the newsletter? Been 30 years... I think.)

 
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.
STATIC
Space Cadet - the never ending journal  (18+)
Journeys of an Alien Space crew.
#2226611 by Kåre Enga in Montana


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

A place to keep track of in progress works and up-coming deadlines as well as any awards.

Left-overs piled on hot rice and mixed.

*Broccoli* 20 *Rain*

I woke up late. Now sitting with a coffee before venturing out for lunch. It's Meatloaf Monday at God's Waiting Room.

Laundry is hung up and drying.

54 degrees at 11:00. Cool 'spring' day.

The meatloaf and mashed potatoes were both spicy. I sat by myself, jumped when Bill greeted me from behind. I'm edgy and not feeling 'well'.

It would be unwise to take a nap. Getting anything done would be a good goal.

Nice evening chat with Birgit. Jay has had all his teeth removed and now has dentures. What a smile!

*AlienG* 21 *Sun*

No rain forecast for the upcoming week. Apparently summer has arrived.

Did not go to God's Waiting Room today. Cooked pork.

Having computer connection issues at home.

2:22 and what have I done? Ate the pork and a banana with peanut butter. Still drinking coffee.

The January 6th Commission keeps nailing the coffin shut but Count Donald will not give up the ghost.

Comparing France and Thailand. Similar size, similar population. Very different demographics. Both protect their historical sites and both have systems of public transportion. Texas, which is slightly larger... does not.

*Monster4* 22 *Sun*

Sat with Don. Saw Ann at market. Spent $21. Got milk? I do.

Nice chat with John and Garion on way home. Met Catriona (Scot name). I feel better when I connect.

Warmish in my place. 81°F at 3ish.

Got up late. Need to work on two contests today.

Yesterday:
"For the love of a button [35] (284 words)
"Interruptus ruckus? Nah... just a button.
Today:
"🇵🇹 Nearer My God to Thee on the Elevator to Glory

*Tree2* 23 *Sun*

Up by 08:45. Forgot to put fan on last night but it's on now. 60 degrees @ 9. It'll get warm later.

"The Miracle of Teddy Bear" is intriguing. I can't find an English-subbed version. So... watching it in Thai. Much is obvious... but the 'why' isn't clear to me at times. Up to episode 7 of 16.

Thursday. *Yawn*

Visited with Angie and Billie Jo. Ate two pork burgers.

Confused brown rice with barley. Gonna be eating lots of barley. *Shock*

*Coffeeg* 24 *Rain*

Sat with Willie, Bill, Dalton and Monte. Nice talk with Jamie in God's Waiting Room and with Karen at the Peace Center.

The 0% chance rained on me.

Woe vs Rage just rained down upon the Eyes of Texas. Let the Civil War begin!

Kansas on August 2nd? A battleground.

Incredible fallout probable. I can see a woman's basketball team refusing to play in certain states.

I travel all the time but I hesitate to monetize my musing. I'm so NOT giddy. Tourist bureaus would hate me. Take Missoula as an example. Outdoor activities galore? Not during smoke-choke Fire Season. Ski? University activities? Not in December/January during grey-sky Inversion Season when the students vacate the state or go to sunny Bozeman. Liberal? *Laugh* Wanna meet some local Oath-Keepers?

I posted at fb:

In this Age of Woe v. Rage
can you sing
"Oh, say can you see,
how my country hates me".


*Balloong* 25 *Sun*

First Day of the Handmaiden's Tale...

It does set up a Civil War.

Sunny 63 degrees at 11:18. Everything looked normal the day the war began.

The White House needs to act swiftly and forcefully. It should've been ready one month ago. *Sad* Alack...

I have some writing to do by the end of June. 4 for offerings to the Bard. 3 more to Journalistic Intentions.

Wrote:

"Just about half past ten [36] ~160 words
" 🇵🇹 Not a Lighthouse (Faro, Portugal)

*Martian* 26 *Sun*

The Supremes are "Frozen in Amber".

I've seen chess pieces carved in amber. Is Alito the king? Thomas the bishop? Kavanaugh and Gorsuch matching knights? Barnett is the queen...

Vertical. The Marathon runs by and there's rally at the Courthouse. I need to get moving.

Dangerous times. If I read right, my friend Mattias Carlberg was in Oslo this weekend for the Pride parade and at the London Pub earlier that evening. Parade canceled? Folks went anyways.

Gasoline still $4.98/gal.

Rights Rally? Hundreds, prolly over a thousand showed up and most marched around town. Quite an outpouring. Only took a couple photos.

I told Sorji: "Yep. Things are going to get real on the Illinois border with all of its surrounding states. We had a rally/march today.

It's impossible for me to ignore politics unless the news doesn't cover it (I'm a news junky and coffee addict; I need to join NJA and CAA). Plus a friend was in Oslo at the London Pub just before it got shot up. Good times. *Worry*

Regardless of where people stand I suspect that it's going to be a HOT SUMMER."

Just met Ankara who is Uighur. We'll have lots to talk about!

Finished/posted: "Jaded... before the rain.

My chromebook doesn't have enough memory to function properly. I'm trying to close tabs... which for me is kinda like throwing away books. *Sad*

To Chris McGatha on FB: I think Biden should sign an executive order stating the Medicare covers ALL woman health issues and that anyone receiving medicare payments CANNOT refuse medical care. And... Medicare will cover the transportation to anywhere that a woman needs to go to get that care... including anywhere in the world, but especially Canada and Mexico. Texas sucks; the Dakotas blow.
