Per Linda’s prompt:

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is โ€œloan/lone.โ€ Use them any way youโ€™d like. Bonus points if you use both. Have fun!

These two words are weird. Though line has ‘one’ that points to feeling so alone, lonely. One never feels so alone as when they feel the need for a loan.

Unless, that is, if one is standing in line at the library.

Even if alone one can never feel lonely while waiting to borrow a book or ten. A loan with excitement and adventure attached.

By the way, Happy Mother’s Day!


Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is โ€œnote.โ€ Use it any way youโ€™d like. Enjoy!

Let it be noted, that I’m not wanting to write right now. It has been a barometric-changing all day. Windy, rainy, and it’s snowing now.

Yeah. Looks worse than it is. But it is starting to stick.

All of this made my joints hurt and brain foggy.

The foggy brain didn’t think that knitting and tinking alllll day was ergonomically bad. How smart is that?

BUT, I finished the Ukulele strap. So as soon as I finish this note, I’ll pull out the Uke and attach the strap.

Then listen for the chords and strums and licks, and notes.๐ŸŽถ๐ŸŽต๐Ÿชˆ๐ŸŽธ


Linda’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is โ€œshow.โ€ Use it as a noun or a verb. Have fun!

Plus, I think I am on the letter

#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter X

It seems obvious:

Where’s the show?

X marks the spot.

So, I guess it’s a creek of Consciousness. I should at least show I have a mind to follow.ย 

Still, nothing is coming up.

This xes out the whole process. Sorry. No show today.๐Ÿ˜ฅ


Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: ends with โ€œgrate/great.โ€ Use one or bonus points if you use them both. Enjoy!

Isn’t it weird that the word that starts that whole, deep emotion of grateful has to do with open screen to hold logs for the fireplace or something to grate cheese?

And yet the even larger word makes me think of Tony the Tiger

Not this cutie.

Spelled so differently, meaning thankful or largely wonderful. Words!

The stream goes sideways here.

When my oldest was a toddler, we had to walk up the block to pick up a few groceries. That five minute walk took nearly an hour. Toddlers can be infuriatingly curious.

Anyway, he saw these grates at the bottom of buildings. They looked like windows for small people. He would peek in. Then turn around and tell me about it. It took all my will-power to not roll on the sidewalk laughing. His forehead had the rusty crisscross of the grate from leaning his face on it.

I’m so grateful for this great memory.


Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: ends with โ€œound.โ€ Find a word (or words) that ends with โ€œoundโ€ and use it any way youโ€™d like. Have fun!

AND

#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter L

Since The month of Flounder that word seems in the front of my brain. It obviously fits both and neither of the prompts. So I’ll continue to flounder about in this stream.

It is a real storm outside thunder and lightning giving us a show. But thunder doesn’t fit the prompts.  I did unplug electronics and between flashes and noise I’m writing this on my phone.

Not my own picture.

The sound of the rain hitting our window ranges from pounding to soothing. I am bound to the view, but soon I’ll be found in bed. You know that time when you round up all the stuff to carry to the bedroom.

But the storm has me all wound up.  So back to watching out the window.


Per Linda:

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: โ€œexpress.โ€ Use it as a noun, verb, adverb, or adjective. Use it any way youโ€™d like. Enjoy!

Express yourself, they say. But there are rules. Proper etiquette, grammar, clothing, hair. Now it must fit with the current trend or political leaning. Religion, or not. What you eat, or don’t.

Express yourself, in the moment, the you, you are then. Be kind but be you. Not who you think others want you to be. And be kind to you, too.


Thanks Linda!

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: โ€œplain/plane.โ€ Use one, use โ€™em both, bonus points if you get โ€™em both in your post. Have fun!

Well, I sat on this all day. All I could think of was flying to Wisconsin to see my daughter and her new family. I love flying in planes. Lately the news makes it scary. But letting go of the fear, I love a window seat. I love watching the world get tiny. Tiny cars, then tiny buildings, tiny mountains.

Where I was raised hay was made into rectangular cubes. But as we flew over plains and fields we saw huge cylinders. The first time I saw that I was flying with my dad to see my Aunt and Uncle. When we landed we asked about the cylinders. They told us it was how ranchers fixed their hay.

Now I live where those cylinders gather in fields at the end of the block.

It isn’t just from a plane that the world seems small.

I wanted to fit in getting a cup of plain Greek yogurt but it’s too late for that.


Thanks, Linda!

Per Linda:

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: โ€œmemories of the room youโ€™re in.โ€ Write about a memory of the room (or park, or gym, or where ever you are) youโ€™re in when you write your post. Enjoy!

The room I use the most is the living room. My memories here are about ten years.

When we first moved in, we didn’t have much furniture in here. My friend, who sold us the house, had laid carpet samples in a checkerboard pattern. With so much room I’d find myself dancing square to square. Those were fun days. Now the room is full of furniture and my hobbies. These create new memories. But I miss a place to dance even if no one ever saw.

How I imagined it.
Now, sans wine insert tea and knitting.

Thanks, Linda! Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: โ€œwool.โ€ Use it any way youโ€™d like. Have fun!

Just when thought I wouldn’t be writing about my latest knitting project, the prompt is ‘Wool‘

Here ‘wool’ comes from sheep or Alpaca or the like. Elsewhere ‘wool’ is the word for yarn. Yarn can be organic or synthetic.

Many people, like me, used to be miserable and itchy when our moms made us wear anything of wool. Some maintain that allergic reaction. My allergies have changed as I aged. Best of all wool, like superwashed wool is so soft and cozy. So I suggest finding some and trying. Wool is strong and stretchy especially when nylon is added. It is wonderful for socks.

My latest examples.

Cotton (wool meaning yarn) soft and not allergenic. But not fun to work for socks. These are one row from off the needles!
These are soft actual wool but the yarn is thin as are the needles so I have to cut my knitting time to save my fingers.

Now without calling too much attention to Finishing Friday or the like. But heck, so as to not pull the wool over your eyes, I’ll check in with the nearly finished Peacock:

Plastic. Not wool. I’m thinking I’ll be done by Wednesday.

Still, I’m streaming on Saturday.  Consciousness leads me to mention two shows we’ve streamed today:

The Wizard of Paws on Disney is so heartwarming!

And I think I’m a Swifty!

We watched half today after spending the morning on the wizard. We couldn’t sit still any longer.

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: โ€œsignaโ€ฆโ€ Find a word that starts with โ€œsignaโ€ and use it in your post. Enjoy!

There, I found my favorite signage.

Sadly, I’m at a standstill onย  today’s fun. I need to study the YouTube about the Fishlip heel. It isn’t easy to know which tutorial will get the results I need. I’ll share when I know which to choose. The author of the pattern is very restrictive with her pattern. And I totally get it. She worked hard on her baby and deserves credit. Soxtherapy is her tag. My problem is trying to just use her heel part and not the rest of the sock.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll get it figured out.
