I hit the PS4 way too hard today. I did read for an hour though. I have two chapters left then it’s book two in the Song of Albion Trilogy. It’s at a very climactic ending with the protagonist going through a metamorphosis of sorts. He mystically hears a part of the Song of Albion when throwing a stone at a crystal wall inside a sacred mountain called the Heart of Hearts.

If anyone defiles the temple of God. Good will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy. Whose temple you are.

I’ll be learning the remaining verses as I go on in my quiet times.

Last night’s meeting was good. We got two new people. I can’t discuss it though. lol.
One of the members who is in the group we’re part of said my winning Cramp entry is publishable. I was dumbfounded. In related news, I am still waiting for Electio Publishing to get back to me. It could take three days. I hope they get back to me period. lol. Only “legitimate enquires” will be answered. I do hope sending my piece to get copy edited isn’t too pricy. That $2,500 for Invisalign took a big chunk out of my savings.
My mom set off the smoke alarm cooking these veggie balls. They smell good but how do they taste though I wonder? I went to the store for some coffee and some sorbet for all three of us. I checked out of line right when Jim clocked off. He planned to get sorbet but I told him I already got some. He drove me home. He worked an hour overtime; he went in at 6 A.M. and got off at like 3:30 P.M.
My art book came in. I am not all that excited though. I honestly don’t have an interest in art. I chose that “niche” because it is fairly lucrative. I hope I do get back to it soon though –maybe an hour a day. I do want to make money though. And the program will take a while to get good income. I’d love to be a full time author. That may be possible if I stick to practice writing every day.

Well I have to call Chad back. Goodbye.

What shall I speak of? I won the Writer’s Cramp against eight other entries. I was very surprised I got the win. I even posted about my win on the HUB of the FSFS. I inserted a link to my story if anyone wishes to read it. And, on a similar note, I sent a message to Electio Publishing asking if my story has been rejected or not so I can edit it or send it to a professional editor. I don’t think it made it though. I’ll find out in three days at the most.

If anyone destroys the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holly. Who’s temple you are.

That’s my new verse I am working on. I got that much memorized in a short time.

In Him you trusted after you heard the word of truth, the Gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, which is the guarantee of our inheritance, to the purchased promise to the praise of His glory.

I think I got that one down.

Though they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption. Having escaped the pollutions of this world, through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and be entangled in them again, the latter is worse than the beginning. For it would have been better to have not known the way of righteousness than to have known and turn from the commandment given to them. But it has happened to them according the true proverb: the dog returns to its own vomit and the sow having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.

I think I got that one down too.

My mom and Jim are dosing in front of the TV. Avatar is on. Jim had his therapy today. He has four more Mondays left.
My mom got me up at about 7:50 and we left roughly ten minutes later to get our blood drawn. I’m not sure what she got her blood taken for. I think it was for her thyroid. My mom’s body has been overheating.
I hot the PS4 for a while. Yesterday I made a new friend last evening. We messaged briefly. I asked if he knew how to invite people in DBFZ. After I got done playing, I went onto YouTube and got some vids on how to do it. So some afternoon, I will play him in a closed match. I want to make more friends and play in a ring match together.
Chad sent me a link of a review of Jump Force. The review was by IGN. They gave it a 6.4. I was not looking forward to it anyway. I’m not a fan of One Piece or Naruto or all the characters from various games. That is except for DBZ characters. The graphics are not that good as IGN points out. The storyline is “convoluted” as IGN also says.
Well, that’s it for now. Goodbye.

I’m a little fried I just did a Cramp entry. It is 848 words long. I got done with it in a relatively short time. I think it’s because I am typing correctly. lol.


In Him you trusted after you heard the Word of truth, the Gospel of your salvation. Having believed you were sealed with Holy Spirit of promise, the guarantee of you inheritance until the redemption…to the praise of God.

I missed some on that verse. lol.

Though they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption. In whom a person is overcome and is brought into bondage. After having escaped the pollutions of this world, through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior, to be entangled in them again, the latter is worse than the beginning. For to have known the way of righteousness and turn from the commandment delivered to them. But is done according to the true Proverb: the dog returns to his own vomit and the sow having washed to her wallowing in the mire.

I messed up some of that one too. lol.

So I ended not going to church last night. Dan was sick with a stomach ache. I texted Craig but he saw it too late. My mom and I were going to watch I can only imagine. It is a story of how Mercy Me composed the hit song of the same tittle. But we were distracted by something else, namely the situation with Lonnie, our handyman. I won’t get into it but there are complications with what he is doing. Oh well, that is over with now.

So I’m really enjoying DBFZ. A newly made friend says to get a mike so me could talk and fight. I didn’t know that was possible. For some reason, there have been lots of ring matches being held by players. I want to start making friends with people so I can play them.

Let’s see, what else is there to talk about? Me, my mom and Jim just ate a chicken and portabella mushroom pasta. It was good but I would like it better without the mushrooms.
Jim is watching basketball now. He was hooting and hollering. lol.
Well, that is all for tonight. Goodbye.

It appears my email inbox is too full and is in danger of being deleted. I got an email saying I haven’t used my email account in the past four years. This is not true. I responded with a question asking why it may get terminated. I hope they get back to me soon. lol.
Well it looks like my email account is fine. There’s this this thing called Onedrive. It’s some type of tool or online service. It has nothing to do with my email account. My email is just the ID tied to my OneDrive account. I read a link talking about possible scams. I hope that is not the case. It appears to be fine.

I’m thinking of backing out of WA. My heart is in writing. Regardless of the situation, I will stick in at WA and learn more about art. Perhaps this is just a phase. I really want this thing to work out.
I’ve grown weary of DBFZ. I’ve tried using different characters but it is still wearing thin. I did leave a message with a PS friend asking when we could play together. That may spice things up a little. lol. According to a YouTube video, more downloadable characters will be released including DB GT Goku, and kid Gohan. That should be interesting. lol. Goku supersayian 5 is another DLC payer.
It is too late do much more writing stuff. It’s nearly 7 PM.

In whom you also trusted after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of salvation.

That’s all I can recall at the moment. I’m trying to memorize two sets of verses and for some reason it’s really hard! I work on them every day too. It’s been over a month as well.
Well, that’s it for now. Goodbye.

Oh, the weary days. I’ve been striving like crazy on Wealthy Affiliate trying to get things straight with my knowledge of art and the confusion that is WordPress. Uhg. My inclination is to spend at least four hours researching art and fours doing WA stuff. But after watching a vid on goals from the WA site, I think that would be too demanding at the moment. Perhaps an hour and a half of research and two hours on WA and then increase the duration for both in small increments would work. This will allow time for WdC stuff and reading. I miss the old days when only writing was my only gig. I need to get back to it. There is something with writing that will cross into WA. My focus is art. I plan to do a flash short story every Friday of 700 words or less. It will fittingly be based on an image prompt of my choosing. I’m quite eager to see how the WA community thinks of it. lol. So five days from now I will do my first story!
I did my first blog a few days ago. It was about how things have been for me so far. My next blog will include the short story. Hopefully, it will pop up in the top blog listing. It may take a few entries but I think it will happen actually.
I have found I comprise more content now that I type without looking at the keyboard – for the vast majority of the time. lol. I usually look down when I need to type the letter “y.” Ironically, I just pressed “y” without looking.
As usual I chatted with my friend Jared. We spoke briefly about politics, government conspiracies and the state of society. He was sick so I couldn’t shake his hand or stand to close to him. lol.
I got up earlier than usual. My mom gave me some chicken chow mien for breakfast. She brought it to me when I was still in bed. It was pretty good. I got up at about 9:15 A.M. I was able to do my quiet time for roughly thirty minutes.

In Him you trusted after you heard the Word, the gospel of your salvation.

Whom having believed you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, the guarantee of our inheritance…

I’ve been trying to get that whole one down for a while. The other one is as follows:

Though they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption. By whom a person is overcome and is brought into bondage. After having escaped the corruption pf this word and be entangled in them again, that latter is worse than the beginning. For it would have been better not to have known the way of righteousness, then to turn from the command delivered to them. But as the true proverb says accurately, a dog returns to its vomit, and the sow having washed to her wallowing in the mire.

I got some of the words wrong with that one but its right for most of the part.

I’m getting quite bored of DBFZ. It’s the only game I play. I should play Battle Front 2 with Chad. I’ll have to look online for how to do an invite. I looked it up once but I forgot.
Well, I’m off to listen to some tunes and thenA get into the trenches of art. Cheers to all!

Well, I ran into another technical issue at WA. I can’t set my posts from being set from admin to my own name. I left a tech support ticket with two screen shots. I hope they don’t ignore me like they did last time. I called my bro in Denver about how to make google my default search engine. I followed this YouTube video to the T and it screwed my computer up temporarily. Hopefully my bro Josh will set me straight. He works in computer software.
Well, I have to leave. It’s getting late. Goodbye. A

This will be short s I just did a Cramp entry and I’m fatigued.
The day began well when I got up at about 10:30 A.M. I did my quiet time and then I hit the PS4. I also had two cups of coffee. lol. I don’t do that often. I like my java.
Chad called me in the middle of my Bible reading. He rambled as usual and I could not make out much of what he said. He was saying something about his legal action about some situation. He spoke of it before. I did not comprehend most of it. lol.
Jim worked today at his second job at Albertson’s. When he got home he went with my mom to get his MRI.
At the present, they both are watching The Voice.

Yesterday night was good. It was a relatively large group. Everyone complimented me on my haircut. There was this one guy who is totally sold out to the Lord. He’s a Christian councilor. He spends three hours a day in the Word! His face just glows. It’s quite refreshing to behold. I asked for prayer for my mom. There is something with her stomach. She will be seeing a specialist for it. Her pancreas was examined and it is in great shape. Hopefully, they will see what she needs to get done. She has bouts of great pain.
My mom is making tea for all three of us. I’m having chamomile with honey of course. I’m hungry but there is only these nasty vegetable taco things. Yuck. I’ll do hotdogs instead. There’s no ketchup though.
I feel tired. I’m still getting back to writing on a daily basis. I did well today though. I hope I win.
Chad sent me a vid of this dude who is ecstatic about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles batman crossover cartoon movie that will air soon. Chad is pretty happy too. lol. I’ll definitely watch it myself. I’m not sure if it will be on the Firestick. Speaking of which, my mom watched the last Dragons movie. She said it was okay. Jim will be going back tomorrow to his first job at Caesar’s Palace.
So I need to go forward with my WA training. But have to set time aside to write. But the most important thing is God.
Well, it’s 7 P.P. Goodnight.

I’m a little fried. I spent an hour or more writing my Thrice Prompted story. I’m at the end of it. It’s about 2.5k words long now. I have decided to give Wealthy Affiliate a break for a week. I need to get back to my passion. I still need to get published. lol. I’m hoping (and praying) I’ll get published by the only company I’ve ever submitted to. It’s also Christian of course. I’m waiting anxiously for 90 days to expire. That is the earliest I can inquire about my book.

While they promise then liberty, they themselves are slaves to corruption. By whom he is overcome. By also he is brought into subjection. After they have overcome the pollutions of this world by the knowledge of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ, and are again entangled in them again, the latter is worse for them than the beginning. For if they receive the commandments…

That’s as far as I have down precisely. lol.


My mom just got brought home from the hospital by Jim. I have no idea what the prognosis is. I begin pretty much every sentence with “I.” That needs to be corrected. There certainly is more fluency with not abusing words. It’s a habit – one that is easily fixed.
It’s going to be fun doing the WdC official contest. This round, it is Short Shots. It’s a pic of a speed boat going through a lagoon. I think I’ll call my story The Aisle of Mist.
Also read for an hour. I’m in the middle of Paradise War, the first in a trilogy called the Song of Albion. The author, Stephen Lawhead, makes ethereal descriptions of the environment. He makes good use of light and mist. The feelings of the protagonist are richly portrayed. He really gets into the mentality in which he experiences in the realm of Albion. The whole book begins as urban fantasy that starts in Modern Britain. Then he crosses into the world of Albion. When he first arrives, he is anxious to go back to the manifest or real world. After years of living there, the protagonist doesn’t want to leave. At this point, he is trained in the art of war and develops a warrior’s physique. He also takes a liking to a beautiful woman. I forget the name of her.


Well, I’m tired. Goodbye.

I’ve been working my but off for hours on WA. It’s just one issue after another. Uhg! When will I make money! It’s been all talk and no sales. I just ran into another technical problem. I was unable to comment on someone’s post. I sent tech support a screen shot of the error message.
Well support got back to me. They let me know they’re working on the issue. Man, I’m cursed!
Apart from that, I was watching I vid about key words – again. The video is out of date. lol. In fact they all are. Kyle should do something about that. I was able to make another page called Architecture and décor. I want to put a painting of a villa as a background image. I forgot how to do that. I’ll figure it out. lol. With all the barriers I’ve encountered, I’m happy I’m persevering. I know I’ll make it. God is helping me.
I was refreshed by a praise blog by a person who got about 450 traffic volume and got an $85 revenue. At the end she added that prayer helps.
Today was the men’s breakfast. It was very scrumptious! It was a good sermon too. Pastor Larry taught. It was about how Christ is the shepherd if the church. He showed this cool video of a number of people calling to a herd of cattle. They only came to one person – the shepherd! It was neat to watch.
I hit the PS4 today for about half an hour. I was winning overall.
Well, I’m hungry. Goodnight.

Well, I finally got my last issue taken care of. lol. It was a technical problem that got fixed by support. The WordPress admin home page editor was messed up. I had to take a screen shot for the techs to help. Now I can get passed lesson four of level two. It’s been a frustrating time at Wealthy Affiliate. I hope I don’t run into other problems. There is still an issue with giving and receiving feedback; I cannot do either. When the system looks for a site to give feedback it keeps saying “try again in a few minutes” over and over again. I’ll get back with site support concerning that.
I read some impressive news on the main blog post. Someone got indexed into the first page of Google and Yahoo! That is quite an accomplishment. The individual is using good key words for sure. lol I myself still need to do my first page post using relevant images. I’ll do that tomorrow. It may take some time, but I need to set up a home page. I already have an idea of how it will look. I will list paintings and pictures by type or genre. If I’m fortunate to get Zatista, a more expensive painting distributer, I will get bigger commission compared to others.
Well I just looked on the net for painting affiliate programs. I found this old site I discovered weeks ago. It gave some art companies with affiliate programs. It may be a few months before I get to that stage. lol. But I’m excited still.
Well it looks like there will be no official place to eat and fellowship after service tonight. No one gave a text – just like last time. It was actually just me, Ted, and this other dude. We went to Taco Bell. Oh well. I don’t mind.
Jim had his procedure today. He was out of it when he came home from the anesthesia. He is still sleepy.
Me, Jim and my mom watched America’s Got Talent last night. This Asian card magician, Shin Lim, won it all two times in a row! He is amazing. There was also this comedian, named Preacher, who was hysterical! My mom was hoping he would win. This was the second time Terry Cruise hosted the competition. He’s a funny guy himself. But he doesn’t get to act out at all.
Chad called. He was calling from home I think. He was rambling like he frequently does. One thing he told me was that he needs work shirts. Until that time, he can wear whatever he wants.
So I added more content to my Thrice Prompted activity. It’s my fourth story. Usually I oversaturate my stories. I’m near the end and I only have about 1.5k words in it. I am very satisfied with it overall. I still need to read every day though. lol.
I got more of my verse down roughly. I’ve been at it for weeks now. It escapes me at the moment. God is good though. He’s helping me along with life stuff.
My sister got back to me today from a text I sent her yesterday. She’s on her way to Texas. She did some work on her home in Minnesota. She was enjoying the snow. I saw a pic she sent me. lol.
Well that’s it for now. Until tomorrow…
