Blogday 23(-18)_100days: SUNny DayWeek & Summer 5%

Image
  The last of the tech 'difficulty' days...not all due to lack of power, like Friday, but for 1 reason or another...difficult to post in a timely manner. So, this one's only the next day. It was a pretty mellow day...woke up early (last few I have! which is NOT typical) & started with the 'talking heads' of Sunday, and got in some extras, and had coffee and a decadent cheese danish that I picked up the day before; a fave 'treat' breakfast, I haven't had one in AWHILE. But it was a limited treat, only 3 servings for 3 people. Then did some cleaning of shelf-stable previous shopping trips, planted some tomato starts, got dinner together (mostly an easy set of reheats, plus cleaning salad of mesclun and watercress, avocado and tomato), then Sunday night PBS Masterpiece stuff...watched something about Queen Anne, then started on Beechham House but got interupted, then went back to an old 'Call the Midwife' (hadn't watched the last 4, now last...

Blogday 21(-20)_100days: Storm...Friday

Image
  Multiple different days of problems posting here... Friday, was about to go down & watch Maddow but recorded it because our local channel's weather guy was doing a filibuster (his young assistant *did* get on to spell him for a bit) because there were massive wind & lightning in a fast moving storm, then BOOM, power went out. We *rarely* lose power as we are on the trunk line and main street for the 'come-lately' (newer) richest multi-million dollar homes in the county, just 'blocks' (kinda rural) away. Between us and them is the trailhead to access the water storage wetland, reservoir and forest hiking trails (where everyone hikes, including me, for decades when I've been in this state, though less so with SO MANY now having a stay-at-home schedule, so it's way more busy then it used to be). Anyway...boom, Turns out a neighbor's tree went down & blocked both lanes & took out the electric line. Luckily, I'm a canldle burner (I'v...

Day 7: 100 days blogging- no summary, but some erring: mindful cheating?

Image
  End of first week and month...I should have some summary, which may happen tomorrow. In other news, I erred/"cheated: a couple of hours ago. I opted to do it, then my mind went away, and I just did my business without thinking or focusing on what I was doing. I was sensing the taste but not focusing on it. Once I noticed that I was in a mindless 'fugue state' even as I was stuffing my mouth without paying attention, I paid attention.It was kind of like an out-of-body experience, until I consciously decided to be present. The I was, but it faded in and out, very subtly. Anyone have that? 3 Small Victories 1) Didn't eat the whole bag 2) Made progress in basement cleaning 3) Made a sparkrecipe 3 Blessings 1) My sister farthest away 2) My sister away 3) My other sister in town Goas: Finish basement, Celbrate Maslentiza, Code Member Comments About This Blog Post v 3VEGGIES I can relate.
