Daily Notes- March 6th


The Bead Drawer in the rolling file cabinet. "Pictures of my World".  I see there's a red lid for one of the Working Jars I buy at Crate and Barrel.   I woke up with a painful left jaw and a crick on the right side of my neck. I just stopped writing to rub some Arnicare gel into the neck muscles.  I have tried the gel on the side of the jaw but it doesn't seem to work.  I'll take two Tylenol.

I slept like a heavy bag of cement last night.  And am still trying to keep my eyes open.

I got my Morning Pages done and worked on two lists that were in the Task section of Chapter Two. I also numbered my pages as I lost count of how many days I did the pages.

We went out yesterday looking for the dry mouth candy the dentist office had on the counter.  G had his annual teeth cleaning.  No luck with the brand the dentist had but we did find another kind they drug store was happy to order.  It's not a place we use regularly.  They also stocked the Aveeno Calming Overnight Cream my daughter gave me for Christmas.  I like it.  Moisturizes my dry skin and makes it look nice.  Expensive (I think).  I had the "talk" with myself being worth the nearly $20 for a tiny jar of night face cream.  I needed to be convinced.

I had started a mason jar of seeds for sprouts.  I rinsed and drained the seeds twice a day and they were very slow to do anything.  This morning I added the tiny sprouts to the cream cheese on my bagel.  They were delicious.  The seeds themselves were tiny.  Next batch with bigger seeds.

I have been seeing many blogs disappearing due to Instagram.  A picture and a few words and the heady delight of piles of "likes" after years (yes) of very few comments.  It's easier to just press "like".   As much as I like pictures--I like words more.  I like reading the wonder filled things some bloggers write several times a week.  Or just once a week.  Few write everyday.  They write things that get me thinking.  Perhaps the solution is to have a "like" button on the blogs?  No comment just a calculator tabulating "likes".   I also see blogs turning into "businesses".  Advertising products, services and "catered adventures" usually in Bali.

I will need to figure out how to delete blogs from my blogroll.  And get used to Instagram.

  1. LIKE......wouldn't it be nice to have the "like" button on blogs? I like Facebook for that reason. I don't do Instagram or Twitter. Anyway, Joanne, just "keep on keeping on" blogging : )
