I have company still, who also enjoys diamond painting and loom-knitting so we are having fun watch shows, chatting, and hobbying. Two weeks of fun!

Oops there’s new phone and laptop are experiencing technical difficulties. Hopefully all will be back to normal tomorrow.
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is โbagged.โ Use it any way youโd like. Enjoy!
How is it that Bagged seems a happy, positive thing. Yet sacked can bring you down?
We are finally done with my travels. My friend brought me home. Everything I’d bagged is now put away, or at least near the desired home.
Tomorrow we plan to bag more food and water and take a little trip to take a hike and enjoy nature’s beauty. Fun is in the bag.
Gone are the days when a day enjoying yourself could result in being sacked. See what I mean?
I hope you have a great weekend! Here’s another way to be bagged:
When I first got to my friend’s house, her cat, Stormagedden-dark lady of all, was afraid of me. I spent a lot of time with treats and toys. I think, now that it’s time to go home, she’s starting to accept me.
The heart got some diamonds. Just didn’t have the back for it. My floor sleeping skills are getting better, but not quite as strong as when I was younger.
Meanwhile, I’m told that Kali sits in my recliner at home howling. It makes me sad and feel like I’m cheating in my pup with Storm. ๐ข
I brought my little kit with me. My friend and I sat and DPed while watching The Umbrella Academy.
It’s been in the 100s so sitting around in the cool house made for quieter fun.
Here’s what I got done so far.
Back side finished today. I still have a couple more forms to work on. This kit is portable and easy to do in small bits.
I’ve got a pair of socks going, too.
We took a little trip to see our friend. It was good to see her healthy. We laughed and enjoyed each other’s company at a park. Starting the visit with a COVID test to make sure the exposure she had from a previous meeting was negative is a weird way to start a visit. But we are rather in that vulnerable population so we have to be careful. She was negative. So we celebrated life.
I’m having a blast this week. Friends and my adult children on long visits are building my memory banks with love.
I got to road trip then spend time with my son and daughter. And SO daughter. We had a lot of fun. It was HOT so we couldn’t do much and stay COVID safe but we managed.
Now I get to visit friends.
Why do I turn into a crybaby when I have to leave?
Just a quickie to let you know I’m off to see family and friends. Yay! I’ll try to check in every day but I knew today would be hardest with seven hours in the car. But even that will be fun visiting with my son and daughter and almost daughter today and part of tomorrow.
Last night the offspring camped. My oldest and I visited with them but didn’t want to camp. So we drove home.
Record of a Spaceborn Few by Becky Chambers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
THIS is my favorite kind of science fiction! So may questions about what might happen if we were to get out among the stars! Patricia Rodrรญguez (Narrator) made the story even better! Becky Chambers writes such different and intriguing books!
I am still feeling the charm, so I have downloaded the first two books to read again. I just didn’t want to leave Ms. Chambers’s universes.
What if we left Earth. What if it were doable to save as many as possible and fly through space. What if other worlds were found? What if other beings were found and able to learn from us and vice versa? What if whole generations lived, died, and were born on a spaceship of some kind? How do we deal with the dead? How do we document life and death to make it understandable for us and others? How do religion and politics play a part? Sexuality? So many questions!
So many characters. A friend mentioned keeping track of the characters. I may need to do that on the next read. I think I’ll need to dedicate a whole notebook for this next read!
Don’t worry. No matter that you don’t know who or what is speaking, it all works out that you realize you did follow it and are so happy to have been there with the author in the end.
I can’t wait to start again!
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is โmake a note.โ Do with it what you will. Have fun!
Make a note,
Sound it well,
Cause if you don’t
Someone might tell.
What might be fun:
Take a note,
Take quite a few!
Leave less to stroke!
Even none!
Sorry ๐
