Well… Well… Well
Look how the penny has dropped. Is that the right terminology? Probably not. I’m still getting used to using certain euphemisms properly. But… Maybe I’ve forgotten how to, that might be the problem. The colors that I would pick for a sports team are brown, white, and black. And you already know what my mascot Continue reading

Current Surroundings – Organized Style
When my office is neat and tidy (which it is currently not), I have the best spot ever for reading and writing. That would be my bed. Yep. When I’ve been at low points in my life, the best spot for me to do any serious writing was in the bed or in the bathroom. Continue reading

How Were… Ehh??
I know very little about cars, at all. But if I were to mention a favorite it would be, hands down, the Volkswagen Beetle. I fell in love with them the first time I sat in one. I’m short, yes, but I was startled at just how much space they have. My other brand favorite Continue reading

Many Ways. Many, Many, Many Ways.
While I primarily refer to myself as a writer – and I am – I also enjoy drawing and painting. Years ago, I stupidly threw away my Rembrandt pastels along with all of my brushes, my bamboo pen and bamboo brush… and I tossed my acrylic paints. I still have my portfolio from college though.

It All Depends.
I would state that my abilities as such a judge are dependent on the situation. I am absolutely fantastic at locating jerks and have been for years. I’m very good at finding people who are in need of serious personality adjustments. That’s not to say that there are things that I do not have to Continue reading

The man who had the most positive impact on my life when I was growing up was my grandfather. He was just… always there. Always willing to listen. He always had candy to share. I didn’t like many candies mind, butterscotch and werthers were what he always had on him. He was my protector for Continue reading

….mmmH
One of them is about tact. I’m not always the best when it comes to that and especially when I’m frustrated over it. What I have learned is the importance of exercising self-control. Thankfully, I had already learned the importance of settling matters the day of. I’ve been working on learning how to become more Continue reading

I Hate It
Yes. I’ve been on stage numerous times to perform, be it a musical instrument or vocally. I have stage fright, so the singing part is very difficult. I had the option to apply for a singing scholarship for college. You know what I did, right? Yep. No college degree. ~J. Lyst I do like singing Continue reading

We Work With What We Want
Years ago, I powerlifted as a hobby. These days, I enjoy power walking. Unfortunately, due to balancing issues, I find myself trying to find alternatives. I really enjoy swimming. However, pre-pandemic, people weren’t the most hygienic in the pool. Now? No thank you. I no longer have the stamina to ride on a bike outside, Continue reading

What Counts As…
I’ve seen worms. I’ve seen racoons. Seen possums. I saw one once in the backyard around 4AM. It screamed, and so did I. I have also seen birds outside. And plenty of squirrels. ~J. Lyst Continue reading
