My dystopian future
Friday July 10 2020 Ever get stuck in a dream state? When you know you’re dreaming, and can actually direct some of the things happening, yet you cannot wake yourself? Usually this is terrifying to me and while in this dream state, I’m shouting to the greater world to Wake me up! Wake me up! … Continue reading 55. Dreaming of waking
Thursday July 9 2020 Relationship status: It’s complicated But Gretchen and I scored by getting our names in the obit, so I guess I’m grateful for that. We fared better than the other three step-siblings who are not mentioned at all. Nobody notified us that the our bio-dad's obit was published. We found out about … Continue reading 54. Disconnected
Saturday July 4 2020 It’s occurred to me, as we anticipate the wonders of what July will bring, that I’ve been keeping this journal for three months. More than 23,000 words put together in a row to chronicle the ever-changing new normal. I’m glad I started this and even more appreciative of my dedication to … Continue reading 50. Sit, Stay, Call
Friday June 26 2020 I was able to sleep better last night, but still have a low grade headache, the kind that you stop noticing after awhile and then wonder why you feel so grouchy. Goat Rock Beach, California. I captured this image during a trip in 2013. Wednesday night I just couldn’t shut down … Continue reading 47. Another hazy day
Tuesday June 2 2020 Oh, FFS. Can we go back to worrying about COVID-19, please? This super-bug has no discrimination or bigotry. It is an Equal Rights virus. Our country is imploding. Like a match to the drapes, this new fever is spreading without thought. Every opinion is stated as a fact of absolutes. If … Continue reading 38. Opposition
Tuesday May 26 2020 Overslept this morning and woke up with a migraine. This, after a series of very weird and vivid dreams. Not been a good day. Still headachy tonight, but pulled together a decent dinner for the two of us. It’s not even 7:30 and I’m already thinking about going to bed. I … Continue reading 33. Blurred
Sunday April 26 2020 Feeling rather meh today. The windows are closed and heat back on after a beautiful day yesterday. Now it’s cold and rainy. I don’t know for sure that’s what’s affecting my mood, but I keep having little anxiety bursts that I can’t really identify. Need to do the big weekly grocery … Continue reading 18. It’s in the curtains
Friday April 24 2020 I’m too tired and distracted to comment on today. But I did make taco salad for dinner. That is all.
Thursday April 16 2020 Woke up in a brighter mood today, dunno why. I’m fighting the urge to cling to my smartphone or Kindle and to get stuff done instead. Before I plugged the smartphone into the charger, to get it out of my hands for a while, I did see a quote that was … Continue reading 13. Comparison
Wednesday April 15 2020 It’s said that if you’re falling in a dream, you’ll wake up before you hit the ground and die. Or instead you might move onto another dream. A recurring theme I have in my dreams shows up when I feel like life is out of my control. I’ll encounter a series … Continue reading 12. Dreams of falling
