A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life.
Started July 1st 2019 for contests, etc. as other blogs are filling up and have other purposes.

I'm starting a new blog because

Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.

So... my daily check-off list isn't working like it did in Thailand.

Read poetry.
Write something.
Talk to people.
Clean the place.
Take a walk.
Take photos.
Study Thai/Lao.
Keep in touch.

I'm not accomplishing much.

Revised "To the mountains that would hem me in:" Open in new Window.

I am reading "Dragonfire" and hope to be halfways finished today. I'm editing old poems and must enter contests by tomorrow. I'm keeping in touch with Pan (daily) and others. I don't feel as alone and isolated.

But I'm not exercising or walking. I'm not cleaning. My eating is erratic.

I feel okay but I'm dog-paddling i.e. not going anywhere. *Sad*

30th: Finished "Dragonfire"... now to read an anthology of poems.

Revised some old works. "Photo Exhibition at Aimee's" Open in new Window. "Properly clothed" Open in new Window.

I feel ghosted.

31st: Working on entries on the last day. Received 2 nice and helpful reviews by BKC.

I forgot about the monthly Short Shots challenge but now have an idea... perhaps not the time.

Started reading an anthology.

Entered some contests.

1st:

Pan is giving up the condo so he messaged me. I wish I were there to help. I'm not.

Up early and out. Walked to market and Butterfly Herbs.

Finished episode 1 of "He's coming to me".

2nd:

Walked to buy food. Smelled irises along the way. Not too cold.

Cooked. Ate a stew of parsnips-potatoes-pasta.

Read a little, watched a little, did very little.
