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.… Continue reading

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

B.D.
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

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

I Guess It’s Time To Be Honest?
I had an older friend of mine ask me this recently, but he was speaking of himself. I remember, there were three of us trying to figure out how to answer him. We know ourselves better than other people. I discussed as such earlier this year to a friend of mine. We don’t really know… Continue reading

What I Do Now Pretty Much
In essence, what I do now already. I’ve only had 2 hours of sleep since yesterday. But I can certainly imagine working non-stop with my chores, lots of baking and cooking. And I would probably make it a point to visit a new restaurant every month. Or every other month. I would also intentionally nap…… Continue reading

No……………………….!!
I would better trust the instincts of a cat and/or squirrel and/or a chipmunk over my own. Cats have good intuition. My first cat hated my ex. Which… at the end of the day was justified. That was the most clever and protective cat I’d had for a long time. ~J. Lyst Continue reading
