Anxious & Depressed, I Need to Start Writing More Regularly Again
I’m anxious and depressed again, so I need to start writing more. Journaling has always been the best form of therapy for me. Last night I was able to cry some. Crying is almost never on my Bingo card. I was raised to be stoic. Stoic or ballistic, there was no in

Happy Birthday to Me — My Last One in the Un-tied States
Today Lisa, Edward and I got together for a birthday lunch in Yelm. It was great fun!. I gave Edward a few treasures which I’m sure he’ll cherish: two Thomas Blackshear sculptures and a tiger head (not a real tiger head, of course!!!). Images below… The Heirs And a Child Shall Lead Them

I’m Loving Learning Espanol!
I’m absolutely loving deep-learning espanol. I bought the perfect book to keep me enthusiastic about it, too. It’s called Madrigal’s Magic Key to Spanish. I have been completely through it already, handwriting 150+ pages of notes all along the way. (I tend to learn best when my fingers are forming letters and sentences. Doing

It Feels Decadent
It feels decadent to not have a pressing task sitting in my den when I come in here every morning, afternoon and evening. No writing assignments, no journals to preserve, no plastic bins to rifle through and organize. I’m already getting down to the nitty gritty of being a short-timer here in the U.S.
Today is Tax Day for Me. That’s ALL Except for …
My only absolute “must do task” for today is to finalize my tax prep with AARP in Puyallup. That should be finished around 1:30 because it’s a simple form and I have everything on a spreadsheet. BUT! When I get back, I still have some stuff in my den closet and a couple

Preserved 11 Journals in 3.5 Hours This Morning!
I was able to preserve eleven journals in just under 3. 5 hours this morning with only a couple of glitches in the export process, so I think working early morning (from 3 to 7 am) is the ticket to getting the rest finished in a more timely manner. This morning’s preservation brought me
