Hello to you! How are you today? Are you awake or are you feeling like you are in a waking dream? Some days life feels so surreal!
22 August 2021 Awake
22 August 2021 Simplicity
Hello and how are you ? It’s Saturday morning as I write to you . I tried to get Link on a walk but he didn’t want to go. So I went on a walk by myself and got a couple laps in. We got a little rain. Just enough to mess up my car and nearly erase my chalk drawings!
So my mind is on simplicity this morning. I am thinking of “the little way.” It’s not the big grand gestures we can do that make this world a better place. Often it’s the barely perceptible. People just being themselves! I used to try and do so much more but I wore myself out ….I got broken . Hopefully some day soon I will find a little way I can give back to the world that gives me so much!
“Simplicity ” in the English Ordinal system equals 135 – one yes no May be existence for all the senses
20 August 2021 Good TV
Hello there! How are you today? I am doing better now that I walked a couple of miles. It’s a beautiful day. It’s a perfect 72 degrees out – nice day!!
So last night we binge watched an Amazon prime tv series called The Tick. Before that it was The Boys. I like tv shows about superheroes. The only shame is I can tell you about the shows but unless you have Amazon prime you can’t see them ! The Boys was good because it was about the ugly side to superheroes and the only people, often victims of collateral damage , strong enough to take them down . I like Carl Urban and he’s one of the stars . The Tick is fun because it’s so far fetched you can’t take it seriously. The guy who is The Tick sounds like the character Plankton from Spongebob Squarepants . Hopefully there will be more good tv shows after I finish these!
19 August 2021 Feels Like Fall
Hello to you . How are you? I am doing ok . It’s been in the 60’s the past couple of mornings and has felt like fall! I am not quite ready for a change in season yet!
Along with the cooler temperatures we have gotten a huge batch of flies! They are so annoying ! And fast ! Hopefully they won’t last long .
18 August 2021 Rested
Hello to you . How are you ? Are you feeling rested? I hope so. Lately I have been feeling like a SIMS video game character that just can’t get my energy bar to full! There was a cheat you could used called a Rejuvenator. All you had to was put your SIM in it for a few seconds and all the bars reset. Some days I wish that was real! There is such a fine balance between protein, sugars and sleep.
17 August 2021 Heart
Hello ! How are you ? I am a little tired today . I wasn’t going to draw but figured I would try and the heart was the focus.
16 August 2021 Energy and Emotions
Hello to you how are you today ? I hope life is treating you well and if it’s not that it will get better.
My thoughts turn today to energy and how energy affects emotions . When I am feeling full of energy my mood usually correlates. I usually feel upbeat and positive . Today I feel like I keep trying to charge my battery and it doesn’t work . Kind of like a cell phone with a bad battery. You keep putting the phone on the charger but it just won’t hold the charge!
I used to be a energetic person but now I just want to sleep all the time ! It’s an effort to force myself out to exercise . I will have to pray about this .
14 August 2021 Lonely
Hello to you ! How are you today? I am feeling lonely today. I tried walking a bunch of laps around the block but just can’t seem to shake this feeling ! Sometimes it’s hard to enjoy your own company . You can’t escape yourself lol.
The place I go that helps me not feel so lonely is my front porch. Sitting there helps me feel connected to the world. There are the neighbors, trees, birds, squirrels and insects. All sorts of life forms “doing stuff.”
When I am feeling like this I am reminded of what life was like off my medication. I always felt like I was being watched and never alone . A part of me misses that feeling. I wish I could have that feeling still taking my medication . Was it God I was close to during those times ? I wonder .
13 August 2021 Anniversary
Hello! How are you ? I’m doing ok.
Today is my service anniversary. If I was still on active duty it would be my 35th year anniversary ! It’s hard to believe how much time has gone by ! The thing I miss is the comradeship. There were a lot of good people I worked with over my 16 years of service . I was stationed at Travis Afb CA, Bitburg ABS Germany, Falcon Afb CO, HQ Space Command Peterson Afb CO, Patrick Afb FL. All pretty good assignments ! I would have to say my favorite place was Europe .
12 August 2021 Duality
Hello and good morning to you . How are you ? I am doing ok. I fixed myself some breakfast this morning after the morning walk. Sometimes it’s hard to get motivated to cook for myself. I guess I’m not really cooking just for myself – Link enjoys what I cook too !
I was thinking about duality. Most everything in known existence has more than one side; more than one way to look at things. The same can be said for a person. Everyone has a light and shadow side – a positive and a negative side . Which side we choose to focus on determines how we feel about that person. I often choose to focus on the positive side but sometimes that can leave me open for attack – vulnerable . I want to believe the best in people!
