Days of my Life #40

Song in my head: Tossing n Turning There’s always a reason stuff pops in my head when I first awaken. This time it’s obvious. I went to sleep itchin and a scratchin this annoying spot at my left wrist where some little hungry insect stuck their pointy fangs in me. Am I that tasty? Naw. …

Days of my Life #22

It’s another beautiful day. Who could complain with These delightfully sunny skies and gentle breeze. Certainly not I. I’ve been walking fairly regularly, up the hill, along the path, by the creek, as far from thoughts of pandemics and politics as I can muster...even though such thoughts are mostly unavoidable. I couldn’t walk yesterday, partly …

Days of my Life #15

Time traveling…to save OUR people.

What day is it? Ah, Thursday, for me. No, wait, it's Friday! I am so confused, my only frame of reference seems to be the little red, black and white calendar icon I've just seen on my iPad screen. You're shaking your head remarking, "That's cause you're on holiday, silly." Not exactly. Well yes, I …
