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

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.

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.

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

9 septembre *LeafY* *Leafg* *Leafg*

62 degrees just after midnight but an AQI of 132 makes getting out in the morning iffy.

Back to choking? It's supposed to rain tomorrow. *sigh*

50 degrees and 117 AQI. I feel it inside my place. It's 9 a.m. Guess I'm not going anywhere.

Finished Boy for Rent ผู้ชายให้เช่า. I have mixed feelings towards the production. Parts didn't make much sense.

70 degrees and 117 AQI at 1:30. I didn't go out. It's a dark hazy pall shrouding the mountains and the day.

Made ditalini with chopped greenbeans, parmesan, garlic, toasted sesame seed and ricotta. It turned out very good.

SoonerShawn > Weather Jamaica re climate drimes: "Think it would be even funnier if it said "I NAM'd someone"

61 degrees and 144 AQI. I can't catch a break. It's 20 til 12.

I did work my butt off for this.

It wasn't 'hard'. It was just frustrating. In English, punctuation matters.

10 septembre *Leafg* *Leafy* *Leafg*


153 AQI. Saw a patch of blue... don't trust it. 68 degrees. Another day stuck inside wishing I were elsewhere.
AQI has stayed high all day. Over 150 is considered hazardous. Rain is supposed to move in by 8:30. I'll be thrilled if it cleanses the air. A second or third band moving through would be nice... just saying. I'm hoping to be able to go to the farmers market tomorrow. I've been housebound since Wednesday.

"A mind that is stretched by new experience can never go back to its old dimensions." - Oliver Wendell Holmes (from Jen)

My response: "Every time I moved or had new experiences I couldn't go entirely back to being
the old me. My friends were shocked when I came home from Costa Rica when I was 22... a friend told me that the old me was just fine. I wish I would've known that before... Now? I just want a new body so I can enjoy what I've learned. *Rolling* I wrote about being 21 yesterday but held back on the most hurtful details." Her response was kind.

I steamed some buttercup squash with pumpkin spice. It was very good. Instead of dumping the water I made a cup of coffee with it. Not as good. *Laugh* Squash water with pumpkin spice might go better with tea.


To Harlow: "As for 'mandrake' ... that's another issue. We poets should be writing about cellphones, IT, Uber Eats, the Great Die-Off (of cash, conversation and cafes), the thousand masks we wear, how fear consumes us.

Once I was a gardener. I doubt most urban young people know the names of flowers and trees. They are concrete objects, but unknown and thereby devoid of any emotional response. Even smells... how many can relate to eau-de-outhouse? Or even a rotten egg. Who buys eggs? Not those ordering out everyday for lunch.

Without shared experiences we have difficulty communicating across divides of geography, religion, social class or generation."
