This blog is 10 years old this month. Who knew?? I didn’t even realize it until yesterday. I was reading through the archives of a blog I just discovered. The author’s archives went back to 2012. It made me wonder how far mine went back, so I checked. And lo and behold, February of … Continue reading This Blog Is Ten Years Old

I Hear You
I used to be uncomfortable whenever there was a lull in a conversation. I used to jump in and fill it with ANYTHING rather than just let any silence be there. I am noticing that I am a lot more comfortable with silence now. I am learning how powerful it is. When someone stops talking … Continue reading I Hear You
Today This Is How It Rolled
This blog is my platform. Every day I step up on it and I say something. I sort of "busk" on it. I don't have a hat, but I do make a bid for your attention. I make an offering. I put something out into the world. Some small thing. Most days less than 1000 … Continue reading Today This Is How It Rolled
Crazy Puppet Blogger
I need to figure out what this blog is about. I am writing it everyday, which is now up to, what? some 70 days in a row? But it still hasn't found its niche or its voice yet. I feel like a puppeteer. I can give voices to different parts of my personality. I have … Continue reading Crazy Puppet Blogger

My pre-streak started today when I woke up, took a hot shower, slathered myself in coconut … Continue reading How many streaks are too many?
Just a little “streak keeper” post
My eyelid is better. I think the culprit may be the moisturizing oil I use on my face. I love this stuff and I have been using it for well over a year now with great results, but I think it turned on me. I tried not using it yesterday, and using the stuff I … Continue reading Just a little “streak keeper” post
Blogging to Failure
G is coming home tonight. They dropped the last 2 games. The night before the games she said on the phone, “We need to split.” Then they didn’t. They lost both. (I don’t know what “need” means in this context.) It doesn’t matter. What I want to tell her is that I am envious of … Continue reading Blogging to Failure
Journaling as an Apprenticeship for Blogging
So I started on my room yesterday. I thought I was going to go up and just empty the room and then put back only the things I wanted in there. Trouble was, I didn't have room for the stuff that had to come out. I mean, yeah, I had room if I was willing … Continue reading Journaling as an Apprenticeship for Blogging
