Favorite Song Challenge

15

Thank you @elune for nominating me.

As with everyone, choosing just one song is almost an impossibility. Do I go with my favorite artist? Belinda Carlisle, if you are interested. That would make it even more difficult since I love so much of her work. No, I will have to go with a song that evokes a strong memory, not in general, but of a...

Oh, I love Cyndi! Nice storie about you and Karen :)

@felicity It's one of my very strongest memories that I have.  I also a very strong memory for Frankie Goes to Hollywood's Relax, but that's a different story.

Today's emotions are brought to you by sadness and anger. The sadness I get. Not sure where the anger is coming from. Hmm, maybe it's more annoyance. Yeah, that feels more like it. So sadness and annoyance. Still...

Worked more on the model some, ran several errands with Karen. Amanda and Alan are coming over in a few minutes and we'll hang out and play...

I'm sorry for the bad feelings and for the bites. Hope your night with friends was nice :)
schiavona:
@felicity It was a good night.  I had a bit over my limit to drink and was a bit tipsy.  :-)

Happy Thursday!

It is Thursday, right?

Today I have finally forced myself to deal with the truth: There really is no place for a person like me. That is, for a Paladin, a person that sees the world in terms of right and wrong, black and white. Everyone sees in shades of grey, but that's really hard for me. I see things as one or the other....

I remember watch the series when I was a kid.  Besides Star Trek and Lost in Space, it was the only other sci-fi show I had access to.
schiavona:
@glass42 I have the series on DVD, but it's really hard to watch now.  It definitely shows it's age, but I still love the ships.

Day 2...

Day 2 of feeling down. I think it's a normal downtrend in my depression cycle. Nothing to do but push through it and see how tomorrow is. I couldn't face kung fu last night, almost made me cry to think of doing it. Another bad night's sleep. I slept all night, but had unsettling dreams, which are not unusual for me, but also not helpful...

I can understand these feelings too well...
schiavona:
@arninn Thanks sweetie.  I hope you are having a great day.  I took a look at your set and thought it was amazing.  I don't think it's gotten as much love as it deserves, because it is lovely.

Happy May the 4th!!!

Good morning to you all! I hope your Monday is off to a great start as we celebrate May the 4th! Ooo, which reminds me, I need to pay bills.

Been working on painting a model and I finally finished. It was not very extensive, I was just disappointed with the results of my painting. But it's a smaller scale model so I could not...

You can try giving your mom a money tree (Crássula). This is a potted plant that will last longer than the usual cut flowers. And it should not cause allergies 🙂
schiavona:
@lecherylady True, but it's more difficult to give her live things since we live half a country apart, so it's not easy to get it to her.  But it's a good thought.

Quarantine Day...whatever...

It's a rainy, dreary day today here in North Carolina. Getting to watch the water come down and wash the trees of dust making everything look bright and green. I love days like today. I'm going to go for a drive in this to make sure I don't miss it. All too soon summer will come and everything will be baked too hot to stand...

I think Phryne wants to say she loves you too, but it's a weird way!

What shall today bring? Hard to tell. I'm tired, so maybe a nap, but I've been over caffeinating myself so much lately, maybe not. Obviously I'll be working on the necklace. I have a chiropractor appointment today that my back is really looking forward to going. Laundry, vacuuming, standard stuff. Some friends, and Karen's old pottery teacher, stopped by yesterday with a load of pottery...

Today is Saturday!

Just a reminder what today is. I tried to post an update for yesterday but SG would not take it. Oh well, I have more to talk about today.

I was heading out to pick up lunch and I saw a vulture on the side of the road, wasn't sure if it was dead or not, that was hit by a car while trying to...

Poor bird, you're a great man for take him from the road. I wish Karen can found patience and energy with her work. Good luck with the new necklace :)

Yay it's Friday!

Just wanted to remind everyone what today is. It's hard to keep track sometimes. :-)

Difficult times for Karen. She has to control her anger and grief as she watches her sector get gutted by people more concerned with rumor than actual facts, more concerned with profit that with science. And watch people she has been coaching to be better and learn more become terrified...
