What am I Doing Here?

This is my first attempt to be a blogger. I hope to type a few items that you will enjoy.

I do not know where to begin with this description. The time period is from 0 to now. Please don't ask how long that is. I am sure with certain clues, you will be able to figure that out.
I am writing this on my favorite old computer at home. I have a computer room that doubles as a retreat for a few of my pets when they want to be alone.
I will cover mostly current thoughts. I hope to add some pictures as I have seen in a blog. I think that to do this sharing will take a lot of work, but the pictures I have seen are well worth it.
Occasionally, I might review a flashback in mylife. I have times when I just roll that special even around in my mind until it has every possible facet examined. Usually this time is to try to figure out a "what if" scenario.
If some of my items have no zest to it feel free to say so. I think that after I have some a few trial runs, then the real me will be out for all of the world to see. Luck you! As the saying goes, "Come with me and the best is yet to be."

As someone who got free lunches for most of her school, and had a lunch lady who refused to take money for lunch after I started working and could pay for lunch myself, that was very sweet of you to make sure your students got lunch.

This is a wonderful story of your caring for your fellow students and, later on, your 'kids' and other students who couldn't afford lunch at school. My grandson gets breakfast and lunch, for which his parents and I are thankful.

The Wizard of Oz is a great choice (although I think Toy Story and Toy Story 2 are pretty great too

In response to "Overthinking"

I've found that, for myself, thinking 1-2 steps ahead isn't difficult; it's the 3+ steps ahead that I started to get overwhelmed with all the possibilities. Which probably explains why I'm not a very good chess player!

The Wizard of Oz is great, along with all of the other films you listed!

These all sound like great things to read! I have a couple of Pulitzer winners on my to-read list as well, most notably Trust by Hernan Diaz.

Happy Birthday to you.
I agree that April is a great month for birthday that is filled with warm weather and lots of friends. It has all the makings for a fun time in which one can go outdoors and visit friends you missed during bad weather time.
Enjoy! Celebrate! Soak in that vitamin D from the sun!

Sounds like lots of lovely plans for April! It's my birthday month too, I'm biased but I think it's the best month for a birthday

Thank you to Soldier Mike for your read and special comments. I like the mention that the acronym is something personal. I would need a little help with X's or Qs. I had a Quincy in my class one time. He wasn't quick or quiet. I knew that he asked a lot of questions so 'Questioning' seemed to fit. He did not mind, and he enjoyed the word. If a person had a short name then I allowed the student to use their last name. I always wanted my students to have a good day.
These Blog writings are thought provoking and fun.
So since it is Spring, let me wish you and your family a nice Springtime. I was glad to see the last snow we had melted. I can take longer walks and go outside to write more.
Take care !

Presenting an acronym to a friend as a birthday gift is a fine idea for a writer. It's fun for them to read, and it's personalized to boot.

What am I reading

Day 4104 March 4
What am I reading? Do I enjoy it?

I have picked up from my mountain of unread books, THE MOUNTAIN IS YOU by Brianna Wiest.
Now, do I enjoy it? Well I have just started it. The first few pages, or introduction is alright but
with this and other books, I have not read much because:

a.) I am busy
b.) I am a little lazy
c.) I need to finish some stories I started
d.) this late at night, I feel sleepy and go to sleep
e.) all of the above

The intro and summary on the back seems interesting. I am trying to get back on track with my goals. And I hurt my right arm and hand a little while ago. Typing is slow. So ask me again in a couple of weeks. There might be progress. And then again 'e.' will be the correct answer.
Have a great day. Reading really is fun. Let the dice roll.

Bye!!!!
