Are you
having the same trouble with days slipping past faster than a loon doing a
three-point landing on a frozen lake?
I awakened this morning with Husband Dear
informing me it was Friday. Didn’t we just have one of those?
Friday is our
day for a movie in a real sit-down theater. Last week we saw Wadjda. When I saw the
Iranian women wearing Berkas, I wanted to castrate every man in the film--until
I realized that the men were caught up in the system the same as the women. And
the little boy was a sweet as anything. Wadjda is the story of a gutsy Iranian
14-year-old girl who wants a bicycle. It just shows the nature of the human
being, how under oppressed conditions there will be a spirit that arises triumphant.
Yesterday
after awakening at the ungodly hour of 6:45 so we could visit a preschool at
8:45, we spent the morning playing and Little Boy Darling explored a brand new
land. I learned about Octopus eggs. I didn’t know the octopus strings her eggs on
long strands, and they look like beautiful glass bobbles clustered along a stem
like Christmas decorations.
Afternoon
found me—that was when I wasn’t dozing off, reading Jeff Goins’ blog. He said he
had nine blogs before one caught. That made me feel better for I have numerous
ones—as you may have noticed. Don’t mean to push anything on you guys, I just
keep experimenting.
Peaches joined me last week on http://www.dogblogbypeaches.blogspot.com and Daughter Dear asked what happened to http://the90daymillionairechallenge.blogspot.com. It’s still there, and I added another post, Miss the Moon, Hit a Star. (The Unitarian lady was fun.) And this week I experimented with creating a side show because I realized how ridiculous the ads for making money on the Internet were. It is Joyce’s Movie. ” How I Made Mondo Bucks on The Internet,” (a parody). It is 3.35 min long and can be seen on You Tube.

I have gotten (almost 1,000) followers on Likes. I don’t know where Likes came from and how they found me, and why they are following me, but I like it. Many of their sites, are really fun. Again wonderful pictures—mine has the best because I have gleaned super good pictures from theirs. I’m grateful to all my followers. The F-word seems to have much clout in their vocabulary, and I avoid using the word although sometimes it’s tempting.
P.S. Today I
sold one of my horse books—shocked the heck out of me.
I told you I didn't like water.
