Here is a collection of ruminations and whatnot. |
While my dogs are vying for my attention (as they do frequently during the day) I’m thinking of how the day has gone so far. I got up and went through some negativity but I was able to keep it at bay. Then I decided it was a good day to get the royalty money out of the bank for a short grocery trip. I only got paid 27.81 for royalties but that amount, well, 20 of it, got used up for groceries to tide us over till Stepdad gets his pension check next month. I’m sure that those who bought my books for whatever period of time the check covered should be happy and given Blessings of Goodness for helping us fortuitously this month. I wasn’t sure whether we might be able to get through the month without giving up a meal or two, or getting low on dog and cat food. The cat food seems to be ok but the dogs are eager to eat almost all the time these days. So the dog food is going at a rate that I’m rather worried about. However, I’ll be keeping a close watch over the dog kibble and since I give them some table food, they should be ok with things. I did a bit of crocheting too - I felt bored with social media. I think it’s fine to be on social media but I think that I haven’t a lot to follow and there’s just not a lot to appreciate on FB. Twitter is more interesting but the election is taking a lot of space and it’s getting too much for me. I can’t go on those two for too long because it causes me stress. All that stuff, leaping out of the screen at me, bringing unwelcome statistics, data and photos - making me overwhelmed. I’m not as excited to know who is leading where maybe but if I learned about it on Twitter then all the thoughts I have leap to different things that cause my mind a stress. I’d rather appreciate good things - nature, flight of airplanes (my newest followed Tweetum) and clothes - fashion, that sort of thing. Stuff that a girl likes to follow - and I might have to prune my list of people followed so I don’t always get bad news from the moment I get on Twitter. |
I'm going out on a limb here and post my business websites - I don't know what Writing dot com is thinking about it but if they wish me to remove this blog post I will. I'm in need to extra income and so I've joined three businesses to be their independent consultant. Here are my websites with them and I invite you to shop there and help me earn a decent living. My book royalties are not as great as I had hoped, and I now it's because of being new to the game of writing books. https://shop.lulareobless.com/050678 - clothing store marykay.com/MFaderan - cosmetics and skin care maryfaderan.norwex.biz - intending to help reduce the world of chemicals to create a cleaner Earth.
