A Strange Avocation
Gardening is certainly a strange avocation. What has happened year after year isnāt guaranteed to happen again this year, and what has never happened isnāt guaranteed to continue never happening. This year, a few years after the seeds had been planted, hollyhocks suddenly decided to grow. Why? I donāt know. Snapdragons survived the winter intact, and at a time when they should just be gettingā¦

Minimalism
Daily writing promptDo you believe in minimalism?View all responses Iām not sure I believe in minimalism. I mean, I know itās a āthing,ā so I believe in its reality. I just donāt know how important it is as a universal lifestyle. Nor do I think itās something I want to believe in for myself. Minimalism, by definition, is a philosophy centered on living intentionally with only what is essential.ā¦

As Old Fashioned as a Hollyhock
There are a lot of topics I stay away from mostly because . . . well, because I donāt welcome backlash. Iām just too sensitive. But sometimes a topic keeps staring at me, which makes it impossible not to face it. For example, every time I opened my internet browser the past couple of days, I had Google reminding me about pride month (small letters are my subtle rebellion), which reminds me thatā¦

Eye-Catching
Daily writing promptGo on a walk today and share a photo of something that catches your eye.View all responses I thought Iād respond to this blog prompt by actually doing what it asked. I went on a walk! First time in I donāt know how long, though it must have been a very long time because the neighbors have been waiting outside for me to stop by, and well, as you can see, that didnāt have aā¦

Unlimited Budget
Daily writing promptIf you had an unlimited budget for 24 hours, what would you do?View all responses This blog prompt should have been a no brainer. Unfortunately, because I overthink everything, I have a hard time with hypothetical questions, this one most of all. For example, I started out wondering what it means by ābudget.ā To me (and to the dictionary), a budget is basically a financialā¦

Self-Censorship
Youād think that someone who says she writes for herself would write whatever she wants, and that would be true if I saved the writing for myself alone as I did with the journal I kept after Jeff died. Once a piece is written, however, and I go to post it, things change. Suddenly, itās not just for me but for anyone who wants to take a peek into my life and thoughts and emotions. For example, Iā¦

Profound Advice
Daily writing promptWhatās the most profound piece of advice youāve been given? Did you take it?View all responses WordPress, the host of my blog, is starting to pull out all sorts of tricks to get us more involved, or so I imagine, since people tend not to like long-form blogging anymore, seeming to prefer the photos, quick clips, and brief comments posted on most social networking sites. Someā¦

Nothing Doing
I live in a town with a unique atmospheric configuration: a donut. Sometimes storms that punish surrounding areas gently move around the town as if to spare us good folk. Other times, it says āOops, made a mistake,ā and dumps the months of missed rain all at once while sparing others. It rained almost all day yesterday, from about 11:00am to 8:00pm. Part of that was a beginning and an endingā¦

Grateful for My Simple Life
This is not another āideal lifeā post, but it comes close. For sure, though, itās a post about gratitude. I am utterly and sincerely grateful for my simple life. I just talked to a woman who has a four-hour daily commute for work, an Australian fiancĆ©, a young son she has sole custody of, all of which turns her life into a logistical . . . well, not nightmare, because her son and her soon-to-beā¦

Decision, Decisions
During the past fifteen years or so, Iāve had to make a lot of decisions. Life and death type decisions. (Other peopleās deaths, my continued life.) Decisions such as how to get through the next minute, hour, year. Decisions such as where to go, what to do. My decisions today are trivial compared to those decisions that had such far-reaching consequences. In fact, these current decisions donātā¦

Garden Update
After the thrill of seeing what plants return from their winter hiatus comes the payback. A seedy garden. Not seedy as in disreputable or sleazy. Literally seedy. As in going to seed. There are still a few columbines blooming, particularly the bright late-blooming ones, but the blue/purple columbines are already past their first bloom and are going to seed. The orange wallflower stoppedā¦

The Perfect Road Trip
Daily writing promptHow do you plan the perfect road trip?View all responses The perfect road trip, obviously, is the one thatās perfect for you, so my experience might not be applicable. For one thing, I had years to plan since I was taking care of my aged father at the time and couldnāt take off even if I had wanted to. For another thing, grief still lay heavily on me, so I wouldnāt haveā¦

Questioning Reality
Daily writing promptWhatās a moment that made you question reality?View all responses A moment that made me question reality? There never was such a moment in my life, nothing like seeing someone out of time or out of place, seeing an alien or ghosts, finding gaps in my personal timeline. Nothing fun or lighthearted like that. But there are a couple of current events with historical overlaysā¦

The Venerable Vegetable
Daily writing promptWhatās a word or phrase that annoys you?View all responses There used to be many words and phrases that annoyed me, constructions such as ā110%ā and āintestinal fortitude,ā but those instances seem so innocuous now that other words have begun to be used half to death (to the death of the word, that is), words like fascist and nazi and racist and whatever happens to be theā¦

World Domination
Well, this is an interesting ā and utterly amusing ā turn of events. WordPress, the company that hosts this blog, seems to have started listing blog achievements. Itās not public, only I can see my badges of achievements (unless, of course, I take a screen shot as I did below). As you can see, I have been awarded a badge, just an electronic image, but still . . . World Domination!! Yay!!ā¦

Erasing Movies
Daily writing promptIf you could erase one movie from your memory and watch it again for the first time, which one would it be?View all responses I found this blog prompt amusing because except for a few movies that Iāve seen multiple times, such as āLet it Rideā and āThe Princess Bride,ā Iāve pretty much erased every movie Iāve ever seen from memory, so seeing any of them again would be seeingā¦

A Quiet Feeling of Contentment
Daily writing promptWhatās a simple pleasure in life that brings you joy?View all responses I looked up the meaning of joy because I was curious if my personal meaning matched the prevalent meaning, and it appears to be the same. To me, joy is an intense feeling, a kinetic emotion of delight and elation and even jubilation. I call it a kinetic emotion because it seems to be one of movement, anā¦
