Shhh… Trade Secret
Collard/kale/turnip/mustard greens. I have no clue where I learned to make them, but the “recipe” is stuck in my head. Probably a misunderstanding of how my grandmother fixed them. With her, I had to learn via watching and hanging outside the kitchen door like some “hungry” gargoyle. Greens are relatively easy too. Just takes years… Continue reading

What Kinds??
Biggest one is COVID19. Lingering one is COVID19. Ugh… I remember blizzards, Y2K, 9/11, BLIZZARDS, tornadoes and hurricanes they talked about on the news. That one time that my entire house shook due to a doggone earthquake in the area. BLIZZARDS. Lots and lots of school shootings. I also remember the DC Sniper. … Those… Continue reading

Endless
If you could have one thing, what would it be and why? In the past, I would have said “if only I could go back…” But going back is a waste of time. The strongest memories we tend to have are the negative ones, aren’t they? The problem with our minds is that over time,… Continue reading

So Simple…
I’m sure there’s plenty that I could say I’m proud of… I guess. But the one thing I’m the most proud of is the fact that I made a charted chore list… and have been following it. I fell off for a few weeks (or a month or so), but I’m back on it now.… Continue reading

Frustration Alley Parkway
Cleaning. Lots of it today. Been watching Aurikatariina videos on YouTube. I want to charge through the rest. But let’s be frank… I worked in my bedroom for half an hour… and likely need another half hour to get it to where I used to keep it. I haven’t played my farm game in days… Continue reading

… Beep …
I think out of all of the word prompts I’ve done, this one is the only one that I can’t fill properly. Because there are many things that most don’t know about me. There are things that would make the hair on their toes curl. As shocking as what I have discussed on here is…… Continue reading

Both
I end up feeling rested. Extremely rested. Yet, I’m also tired. And I feel like a useless lump because I get nothing accomplished. If It’s a really lazy day for me, it’s one where I haven’t had a shower either… which then makes me depressed. Tonight will be a “lightly lazy” night. ~J. Lyst Probably… Continue reading

But Why Not?
I’m a comic book geek, so the first one I would consider is Jennifer Walters. She’s a successful criminal attorney and has been through two different colleges. She’s one of the most educated women in Marvel, but they still put her in situations that would make some assume she’s a total idiot. ~J. Lyst Continue reading

It’s Not State Farm
In my case, people who keep an eye out for you. Short on sugar? Give them a call. Got their mail? Bring it right over. Obtained free food? Let them know. My neighbors look out for me, especially considering my declining health. One of them couldn’t get paper products one month, so I got ’em… Continue reading

Wondering…
I’ve gone roller skating before, but never tried rollerblading. I have fallen off a skateboard. I guess that counts as skateboarding. I’ve never used one of those hoverboards. Pretty sure I would fall off. Yeah. I would love to try a hoverboard. … I wonder if one of those can be used with a rolling… Continue reading
