Here we go again, once more,
Another social spot for posting.
I promise to very little boasting.
No guarantee I'll not be a bore.

Good morning, one and all and some!
My work is starting, and yours is done,
Or else you’re having your mid-day meal –
We’re scattered ’round this global ball.

This turned into three stanzas, but the first works well here as a stand-alone.

Today was productive, in spite of some drawbacks. No complaints. Grateful.

Tomorrow will be busy: radio in the morning; study at night; work and writing before and between.

Ah, and Mom's birthday. So a call to make also. Grateful to have her with us still to be able to talk.

Just saw something about Blaugust, sorry I missed the start of it. I might have tried it. Or not.

Enjoying the Quiet Journal #webxdc app via #DeltaChat. Game changer for me. Easy, simple, just write and post to self. Kinda like a text selfie.

If you put your life into the Lord's hands, he will humble you, break you down, and reassemble -- better, transform and sanctify, prepare you for his eternal presence.

Friends here Saturday for breakfast -- invited themselves.

Friends here last night for chili -- they almost invited themselves, after the first bowl months ago.

A very good time was had by all, both times.

Can I rest today?

Day started fast and furious, in a good way.

I see a nap in my immediate future.

The day holds promise for good, the mind
lags, long in tooth, slow to find
a door, a plan, an idea to pursue.
What drawer holds the mental glue?

Thankful to God for 3 good things:

his many gifts of talent;
books that have changed my life;
the act of writing, and pens.

After 40 seconds visiting a popular #Mastodon instance, all I saw was complaint, foul language, and accusations. Don't let anybody tell you the #Fediverse is a nice place.

Some naps are restful, others leave a person groggy. Why's that?

@Nimrod I didn't mean I wake up every 1.5h, I meant that I aim for the time I'm asleep being 4.5h, 6h, 7.5h, etc.

Ah, gotcha.

It's an amazing thing that the mind can be trained. I can often program myself to wake up a certain time, and I'll do it within a five-minute window.

@Nimrod Yes, I've experienced that. Pretty amazing!

Asked Grok about using Friendica or Streams as a newsletter-type site. It suggested work-arounds, RSS (which I love but people don't use) etc. Woulda been a nice solution if ...

Used to have an account at posthaven. Loved that it was a newsletter-type site. Not sure why I left it, but now it's abandoned by the creators. I went there from posterous. Miss not having the ease of doing a newsletter and subscribers getting the email automatically.
