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.

Make Thy beauty to be my food, and Thy presence my drink, and Thy pleasure my hope, and praise of Thee my action... - Bahá’u’lláh  MY THOUGHTSMeh. I keep thinking that I'm supposed to be doing something. Then I give up. Depression is settling in day by day.  WEATHER (April 13) 3°. 10 a.m. in Missoula. Sun trying to break through. Very trying. 5°. noon in Buffalo. I grew up here. This is as good as it gets some days in April. 6°. 6 p.m. in Prishtina, Kosovo. Light rain or snow but better days ahead.  20°. 7 p.m. in Istanbul. Wonder whether the tulips are in bloom?  IMAGESThe hills are slowly greening but the pines cast their pall high on the mountain slopes. In town the trees are budding but not quite yet. They will burst out this weekend after promised days of warmth and sun.  POULTRYToday's poem: "April 14 poem--"break" a sonnet somehow"  Yesterday's very silly poem: "April 13 prompt: pottery, crockery, ceramics"  PORK Yesterday's flash fiction. No comments no reviews, no idea:
 READINGStarted: In the meantime by Robin Lippincott, page 36 Poetry: Local Visitations, Stephen Dunn, page 43.  QUOTE"God knows nothing we don't know. We gave him every word he ever said." "Konwledge" Dunn, page 32.  MOVIETIMERumpole of the Bailey, volume 2.  MY LIFETo Jyothi: When I was homeless we slept about 1 meter apart and shared everything. As much as I'm ready to climb these walls they are mine to climb through the end of May. My rent is paid. About moving ... I commented to Celia: We aren't a family of movers. I've been here 11 years now. My mother lived in the same apt. for 25 years until she fell. My sister still lives in the family home (1951); she's never lived anywhere else.  SENIOR CENTER and  COFFEEHOUSEPicked up chicken & vegetables at the Sr. Ctr. Looking forward to that split pea soup later. Said hello to Phil and Ben. Didn't hang around much.  O PINIONS!Still steamed about the lies and fake news perpetuated by social media. I told Caoimhe: "I have opinions but I'm not always right". But people do not fact check or think everything is a joke and then claim innocence. I claim criminal ignorance. And I'm not laughing.  TRAVELTo Naomi: "One of the joys of staying in hostels has been getting to know the staff, the owners, their friends who hang out there. I love going back to my favorite places. In a very nice hostel, Anchi Guesthouse, in Dubrovnik the delightful owner is also the house-keeper; she hires a couple receptionists. Many small hotels/hostels have a personal touch but even at larger places it costs nothing to smile at the help."  WATT'S GNUSSome Chick-fil-A stores are banning cash in favor of the company app after WHO says bills could further spread the coronavirus Business Insider, Shoshy Ciment The problem? Pay only with an app? Pay only with card? The last I checked ... "this note is legal tender for all debts, public and private" as printed on all $1, $5, and $20 bills. Someone somewhere is going to file a lawsuit. If I can't pay in cash and I don't want anyone to have my bank information where does that leave me? If I MUST have a credit card or app ... then cash is worthless. BLOGVILLE30DBC: Storytime: Which items in your home have a story of how they came to be there. I sleep on a queen size bed. Not exactly by choice. My neighbor down the hall moved to San Diego. The mattress was too large, too heavy or too whatever ... she took it down to the dumpster. I dragged it back up 2 flights of stairs. It takes up half of my one room. But no problem! I have a book case sitting on top of it with part of my VHS collection and a double-size futon sits on top of the rest and wedges the shelving against the wall. Of course, it blocks the closet and would be better moved to the other side; but, don't ask how much of a chore that would be! There is so little room in these two rooms. I'd rather have a single-bed bunk. I don't need anything wider, although a twin would be perfect. With bunkbeds I could hang dark drapes like a fourposter bed. It would be much better. But, one should not complain too much about free 'gifts'.  |
