What have I been focusing on this week?
Because of my arm/shoulder pain, I am not knitting or crocheting so much. That means lots of games on my tablets, I like the escaping blocks type games. Any suggestions while healing?

How do you go from practice to pointless? Then from pointless to playing? And suddenly feel the guilt for not practicing?
I’ve been playing piano for over a year. That’s after a couple time outs of years. I took lessons from 5-16 then a music major in my 40s. In between raising kids, jobs, and rebellion of the terror of the piano (mom issues, not teachers).
I thought I had it figured out. Playing is fun. And I’ve finally reached near where I was when I quit last time. But suddenly I’m not seeing improvement. I picked up Learn Faster, Perform Better by Molly Gebrian. Now I find I don’t want to play anymore. My rebel nature is back full force. That is not to say she is wrong.ย Practicing segments 10 times right will perfect the piece. But I want to play music, enjoy music.
Any ideas?
Knocking my head against the wall gives me a headache and I still got nothing.
The socks and hat are on Chiaogoo cable needles. The shawl is crocheted. I’ve frogged and restarted the hat and the shawl. It’s fun to try something new. I have other socks but haven’t worked on them for a while.
Energy has been low lately but I’m gradually getting better.
Anybody watch the series “From” ? When I saw the prompt I thought about how guests are brought in and don’t escape.
At this point, the streams fork out and I can’t keep track with these ole fingers and eyes. So that’s it.
By the way, if you don’t like horror, and I think this is far scarier than The Walking Dead, maybe pass it by. I’m still undecided. I watched while knitting or playing games on my tablet so I don’t get hooked in.
When you know all day that it is Wednesday and you only have one line the burden can overtake you at 4 AM Thursday and again remembered at 10 AM, the panic is real! (I’m posting this on Thursday hoping that it fills in a missing day for WP.)
Since I don’t have a book review ready, I’m still reading the books, I thought it a good time to share what I’m working on.
Though I’m working on the socks when my hands let me but the progress doesn’t show so much.
Mostly I’ve been trying to catch up with reading. Have you seen my TBR/Currently Reading shelf?
Is it a coincidence that ‘coincidence’ starts with ‘coin’ as you might toss for luck?
Is it a coincidence that Milo hit the button “outside” when he needed to relieve his bladder? He seemed quite happy. Since that time, he’s looked at the button wagging his tail but scratches the door instead.
It’s how we all learned to communicate. Babble sounds that resulted in our needs being met. And the most successful sounds we repeated often. Sure we got it wrong sometimes, but success bred success.
Should I follow Homer?
Goodreads is doing a giveaway of Odyssey. They asked if I wanted to follow the author. Decomposing? What has he composed lately?
Holding up the princess dress with the empire-waist, she admired the illusion. She could be the empress. But there on the wall, the hand print. Blood?
She remembered the bare foot imprint in the flower garden. They were trying to impress her with their daring, trying to scare her.
It took her five minutes to dress and sweep her hair into the crown. She could impress, too.
Still biding her time, she bagged the crown and donned her long raincoat. She and the magician had a secret. Two more months.
Leaning against the tree, she felt the universe of power as she watched the interloper being eaten. The dragon wasn’t impressed. Still he winked. The empress was impressed.
