What I am reporting isn’t a rainy day. We’ve been having strange weather. Freezing fog that makes everything looks eerie. I had to take pictures at about 10 this morning. Some of the fog had started to burn off. Wish I would have had my phone handy when I took Kali out at 6.
That is not snow. Frost, I guess. But in this last picture Kali is strutting to her favorite part of the yard.
By the way, if you saved up for a rainy day, would you leave your cozy abode to go spend it? Let’s save for life. Let’s enjoy the umbrella and boots and mud puddles!
Your prompt for #JusJoJan and Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: โa rainy day.โ Write about the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the phrase โa rainy day.โ Enjoy!
It seems if you look at the protocol to participate in JusJoJan are endless. But really, it is just an encouragement to write, even a little. And these days a little seems huge at times.
Still it is fun, and if you’ve the eyes for it, reading all the connected blogs is fun and you make new friends.
Your prompt for JusJoJan January 13th, 2022, is โprotocol.โ Use the word โprotocolโ any way youโd like. Enjoy!
What happens in a house that has no closets or storage? Clutter. It happens.

Per Linda our prompter:
If you would like to participate in this prompt, feel free to use the โOne-Liner Wednesdayโ title in your post, and if you do, you can ping back here to help your blog get more exposure.
Here are the simple JusJoJan Rules:
1. Just Jot It January starts January 1st, but itโs never too late to join in! Here, we run on the honour system; the โjot itโ part of JusJoJan means that anything you jot down, anywhere (it doesnโt have to be a post, it can even be a grocery list), counts as a โjot.โ If it makes it to your blog that day, great! If it waits a week to get from a sticky note to your screen, no problem!
2. Iโll post prompts at 2am my time (GMT -5). The prompt will be the word in quotation marks in the title of my 2am post. You donโt have to follow the prompt every day, but that will be where you leave your link for others to see. Youโll get a prompt for every day except Wednesday, when the prompt is simply my One-Liner Wednesday and on Saturday, when your prompt will be the Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS, which will appear at about 9:30am Friday. Each prompt post will include the rules.
2 a) The rules that Iโve made for myself (but donโt always follow) for โOne-Liner Wednesdayโ are:
1. Make it one sentence.
2. Try to make it either funny or inspirational.
3. Use our unique tag #1linerWeds.
4. Add our lovely badge to your post for extra exposure!
Though gruesome in content, this was a beautiful book. I love how the author portrayed the main characters and historical content. I must admit to not knowing this part of history at all. This story gave me a better understanding of what happened.
Emily Klein narrated the story flawlessly. She varied the voices enough I knew who was who.
This story is a movie. I plan to watch it soon. Meanwhile, I won’t soon forget this family’s struggle, and no doubt thousands of others went through it. And the messages of what could happen to people when life gets to the point where neighbors are not trusting neighbors. When bigotry gets power, it isn’t good for anyone. And when love is involved, you see that life can be a bit better even in the worst situations.
Along with plenty of water, salad and salmon, another important part of my daily diet is a small bit of dark chocolate. A diet should have some yum, don’t you think?
I choose that square nearest my left side of my hair. Just above the double heart.
Your prompt for JusJoJan January 10th, 2022, is โchocolate.โ Use the word โchocolateโ any way youโd like. Have fun!
Yikes! This book was so suspenseful I couldn’t get a good night’s sleep until I finished. And even then, it is so easily probable it may prevent sleep for the next decade.
Joan Allen, the narrator, made the story come alive. I think the mixture of a great thriller writer and someone who had been in politics gave the story believability.
I picked up this copy on Libby, the library audio app. I highly recommend this book.
In the moment, I feel uninspired. In the moment, I feel accomplished.
Another pair for charity.
The next pair toe to foot.
In the moment, I wish I had a TARDIS I could fly away on. But that might take energy and/or inspiration as to where or when to go. Instead, in the moment, I prefer to be knitting or Diamond Painting.
I finished listening to this a few nights ago. I still feel warm and fuzzy from the experience. No, it isn’t all a cozy read. But the author went into the characters’ psychology in a way that women. mothers could feel. Most of us haven’t had to experience this kind of life. But it doesn’t take a lot to feel how it might affect us. And how it could mess up the children.
Bahni Turpin (Narrator) was marvelous. I could listen to her voice all day, especially when she would sing lullabies. She expressed emotions fully. And get ready to be angry, and make sure to bring the Kleenex.
This is a beautiful read. I was able to hear the Audible version. But I could have read the Kindle version as I had it for quite a while.
