Here are words I like to write All day long 'til it is night. Words go up and words go down When complete approve the sound. If you complete my little rhyme, Things will come your way in time. |
Monday October 23, 2023 1:40 AM I am trolling around looking for ways to slap someone with a random act of kindness. I have found a couple. I got my breast cancer piece finished. I took an earlier piece and reworked it. "Road Trip" Hopefully, it has more impact by showing what occurred not just telling. Completing a story can be a big hurdle for me. I get so involved in what is happening around the community, I don't take the time to do the primary thing at the base of everything we do here. I mistakenly sent out a story I wrote in my autobiographical book at Storyworth.com to my former BFF. Oops! Today I need to finish up with a review, reading at least one blog entry, and visiting a port of a favorite. That along with this blog entry are the minimum of four things I want to accomplish here. A fifth goal is to write at least one thing every month. It is a new October goal that I have met. I am looking at pictures of flowers today. This one is a favorite. ** Image ID #2307063 Unavailable ** |
Sunday October 22, 2023 10:45 AM There has been a marked ebb and flow to my online presence. I am spread thin but give each venue my all. Until I pause...and don't meet my daily goals...setting myself up to fail. Now it has extended to my schoolwork which is not acceptable. I keep telling myself tomorrow will be different. So far, that isn't working. I feel good I have put something down here. Checking off the first of today's goals. |
Friday October 20, 2023 8:30 AM I was on WdC until after midnight PDT. Since I am three hours behind WdC time, I get notified of things like points for reviews shortly after 9pm. I just signed on and I did not have one email in my inbox. That has never happened. I sent out a dozen or so emails. Perhaps you received one. I remembered my Kudos to You meme. "To have a friend is to be a friend." Now I have thought of this one: "To receive an email you need to send an email." I put that on my 'Just Do It' list to look for a signature image for that. I guess in other words, do unto others as you would have them do unto you. |
Wednesday October 18, 2023 1:15 AM I had a busy Tuesday yesterday. I was here for maybe an hour is all. Had take-out steaks for dinner. I chatted with a bunch of people throughout the day. I got annihilated in WWF as usual by my sister and one of my former bosses They continue to play with me anyway Have to finish up a brief 175 word piece on how journalism has changed and what is "fake news" in my new class starting today, Journalism-Writing for Impact. Until next time, tracker |
Tuesday October 10, 2023 7:00 PM The boys of October are playing to see who is going to the World Series. Golf is the hardest game to watch on TV. Like watching paint dry. The baseball game is slightly better than that. Later 9:54 PM As happens all too often, I got distracted. I lost my train of thought. The train left the station without me. I will try again tomorrow. tracker |
Saturday October 7, 2023 11:50 AM Getting a late start. Plan to finish a story this weekend. That is all. tracker |
Friday October 6, 2023 6:45 PM Another week that flew by even faster than the last one. I have gotten closer with my favorite sister who is three years younger than me. The youngest is seven years younger. We were always tight but both became busy with our grandkids. We talk a couple of times a week. She is the exact opposite of me. She is painfully shy. She doesn't speak until spoken to. She takes a few extra seconds to reply. It can be nerve wracking if I let it be, I don't miss ex-bff at all. I did half my homework last night. Another 3 1/2 days left to complete all of it for the week. I am procrastinating in the other class in math. I was not doing well. I reviewed all my work and discovered I passed over one quiz causing the low grade. The system allows you to make up any part of the course. I did the test and have just one point to be at the passing mark. I need to monitor the online time that is taking away from school time. Being here is way more fun than school. Still on track for graduating in August 2024. tracker |
