A few years ago I looked up all the words that don’t conform to the I before E except after C rule of English spelling. I found more words than I had expected. I ended up writing a short tale containing 66 unique exceptions to the rule: Feisty old Keith lives in the sovereign state of […]
I before E except after C… and 66 other exceptions
I have about six books to review, but my energy seems to want only a blanket and garbage rerunning TV. But thought I’d check in. My numbers here should be the same as Duolingo:
On the plus side, my husband is up and seems to have energy. So I look forward to that!
I was going to do a bunch of book reviews. But my temp is 101.2. Maybe later.
Usually I have lots to share in the progress of my hobbies. But my energy and mood are low.
No amount of busy will help. I know that. So, I’m going through.
On the plus side, I did find one of the ‘hard’ Sudokus in my ‘easy’ book actually easy. But the rest were hard.
Is it the weather or grief raising my pain levels, making me tired? Losing the last of our fur family trio has affected me more than I expected.
So I’m going to sit in the mood and learn what I can.
Per Linda:
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “iron(y).” Use “iron,” use “irony,” or use both. Use them any way you’d like. Bonus points if you use both. Have fun!
I am allergic to this word for the picture it conjures up. Especially on Saturday.
You see, growing up, doing the family pressing was my job. Every dang Saturday. The whole family’s!
Granted the guys had to vacuum, cut grass and the like. And Mom did all the laundry, even before we had a dryer. That meant she hung up the clothes then when dry, she brought me the wrinkled clothes.
It seemed a never ending mountain. Not to mention Mom was angry every single Saturday.
Now I look at it with my t-shirts and permanent press and the occasional steamer (once every couple years?) and realize how unfair the world has been to women and especially my mother.
I am tired. I wish I could think of something ironic to say here. But maybe I’m anemic?
I’m still recuperating, not so much from the surgery but so many long trips on so little sleep. My husband noticed I don’t wear glasses while knitting or diamond painting. I still haven’t been brave enough to play piano or recorder for fear of not seeing the music properly.
I’m back to doing Morning Pages and working through both Artist Way and It’s Never Too Late by Julia Cameron.
My Life is still progressing. Five more days in May to meet my goal. I think it’s doable.
Lots getting done. Lots of writing. Still need to rest my eyes a lot while marveling over this miracle.
Not much to report today. Tired. But outside of a nice nap to make up for low sleep, I managed to progress on these.
I’ve had my yWriter7 open all day. I’m determined to write something before going to bed tonight.
Still kind of tired so the week is going slow. ☹️
I got new glasses.
$15 at Amazon. Blue Light Protection, well, what it says on the box up there. The bottom part is a 3.50 and it gradually goes less. I wish the top was just clear as I still have to glance over the top for farther away, like television. But they help a lot for reading, knitting, and Diamond Painting.
Speaking of which:
Oh, and using the ruler is wobbly after hitting the middle section of the picture. Again, maybe there’s a learning curve.
My friend gave me new yarn. Are you feeling the giddiness I felt receiving it? Whee! ❤️❤️❤️🤗
I still haven’t climbed back into the editing chair. 😢 Maybe tomorrow or weekend will get me going.
It is slightly warmer lately, but the wind keeps me inside. Even so I’m cold. I’m working on my diet to see if that’s the problem. With some foods unavailable in our stores I’m needing to be creative. Time for some shifting around.

The Depth Behind The Ordinary
Books, games, music, and life — filtered through the mind of a writer, drummer, and philosopher who thinks too deeply about all of it. If it moves something in your chest, I'm interested.
