Today I bought three colors of paint. When I looked at them next to my boat, I wasn’t happy with any of them I also researched the nessesity of ‘bottom paint’ This extra expensive paint (that comes in maybe three different colors, black, white or blue) is important if my boat is going to stayContinue reading

I’m good

What countries do you want to visit?Just my kids and their kids in this country. I have no wish to travel anywhere abroad at the moment. We drove to Rhode Isand today because it’s supposed to be record setting hot today (according to the news) and a nurse was coming to the house. Reprieve! It’sContinue reading “I’m good”

Sprucing

What’s your favorite thing about yourself? I like that I can make things better. Prettier, more delicious, streamlined, fun, cool, decorative.

Boat ownership

No one expected this! A little boat bangs itself onto a beach at high tide in a winter storm. The authorities declare that it has been lost for over a decade and belongs to nobody. Due to its battered state, it becomes unwanted several times over. People come to look and change their minds. WhenContinue reading “Boat ownership”

One Thing

What notable things happened today? I had a small epiphany. Nothing super interesting. I may have had this same one before, but already I feel a shift. As you know, I’ve been having a time of it. Trying hard to fit myself into a life that isn’t maybe ideal for me. I have good reasonsContinue reading “One Thing”

Nothing

What are you passionate about? Well. It’s not that I don’t have people and things that I love dearly. I’m guessing the question is asking for something like art or God or beauty. Or fashion or reading or I don’t know, something all consuming. They always say follow your passion and that’s how you’ll knowContinue reading “Nothing”
