One-Liner Wednesday


One-Liner Wednesday is one of Linda’s prompts.

It started with one skein, divided into two for two yoga socks, both finished, lost one, so this is now a One-Liner?

Hope I find the mate soon.
Yay! Lost sock was hiding under the sheet on the footrest! Which reminds me, anyone ever read Skinny Legs and All by Tom Robbins?

At nearly 76 I still feel like this:

Another Day Undone


Plans. Bah! I planned on working on my characters and their drawings but the electricity went down. That meant I had to go to non-webs. Plenty of piano when the light from the window was good. No diamond painting as light pads and other overhead lighting was out.

While the light was good I got sucked into the yoga socks. Rather than move to another pair of circulars as I hit the heel hole, I pulled out the double pointed needles.

That took over the rest of my day.

It takes about four rows to get over the wibbly-wobblies.

Yoga Socks Sunday

Milo and my yoga socks. I’d like a longer cuff, but these are comfy.

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “joke.” Use it any way you’d like. Have fun!

I had a great idea for today’s blog. But first thing today, my husband decided to run utilities and updates for me. I hate doing that, so I’m always grateful when he wants to do that boring task. But that means I lost all my tabs.

Two projects have me challenged. Figuring out how to make the heel hole in my yoga socks. Especially, two at a time socks. No YouTubes seem to address my particular issues. But I had saved a couple that would have helped a bit. So issue one was finding the sites.

Problem number two:  I have created three characters. I actually dreamed about them and wanted to draw and write stories to get better acquainted. But the socks got in the way.

I finally separated the socks and find it is working. Yay! But somewhere my muses are giggling about how best laid plans fall down the rabbit holes! The joke is on me!


Finished the bottom of the DP and now in the basket area.
The sock above is farther along. I think they’re pretty but the work is difficult. Too pretty for yoga socks.

I’ve sight read to the ‘O’s. I wasn’t at all impressed with Ode to Billy Joe. Some songs call for guitar not piano.

It is full fall now. It seemed the leaves turned and are falling within a couple of days. We’re back to dripping faucets and heaters. I’m still rebelling with bare feet. My brother and son still wear shorts with heavy jackets to take out the dog.

Thursday


I’m feeling this right now.

One-Liner Wednesday


It takes strength of character to develop characteristics for new characters.

Chasing Evil: Shocking Crimes, Supernatural Forces, and an FBI Agent’s Search for Hope and JusticeChasing Evil: Shocking Crimes, Supernatural Forces, and an FBI Agent’s Search for Hope and Justice by Robert Hilland
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Robert Hilland (Author, Narrator) and John Edward (Author, Narrator) told a frightening story. And it is a nonfiction. It isn’t a ‘who done it’ as they knew who. They just needed to catch the guy in a legal way to stop his serial murders.

I made the mistake of trying to read this at bedtime and found I couldn’t sleep. The book opens the imagination and sets you in the detective seat, trying to figure out what is happening and how to catch the guy in the act before more deaths.

If you are a skeptic, this book challenges you. I must admit to my share of “Come on! No, WAY!” but then I still believe there is energy out there. Ghosts? Angels? Who knows until we get to the other side? I can see this book becoming a movie.

I was lucky to find this audiobook on Libby.

The Book of SheenThe Book of Sheen by Charlie Sheen
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Charlie Sheen is okay. I wouldn’t avoid a show cause he’s in it. Neither would I go out of my way to watch something he’s in. As a narrator he’s too fast, but I got used to his rhythm. And as memoirs go his was just, meh.

I would have rated this book with two stars, but he is clever with his phrasing in a way that makes me laugh. That brought my rating to three stars. Ah, but maybe others will love it. Heck, maybe I’d love it in another time or mood.

This audiobook is on Libby.
