I had published this once and when I looked at my posts once again checking for errors, it was not thereš³š. Murphy is lurking Iām sure of it. If Iām not putting sās instead of aās iās instead of oās, itās deciding to delete again. A while ago I complained about how speaking instead of typing would fix my fumble finger moments, the text just started automatically disappearing. It must be my phone?? Internet? WP?
Home today is nice and cool and sunny. People are reffing soccer, wedding preparations found and applied, and reading news didnāt make me as angry as usual. So hope your home is happy today too!
Netflix is showing the movie āTower Heistā and itās a fun romp with many actors you will recognize.
āFor more than 10 years, Josh Kovaks (Ben Stiller) has managed one of New York City’s most luxurious and well-secured residences. One of the condo’s most-notorious residents, Arthur Shaw (Alan Alda), is currently under house arrest for the theft of more than $2 billion from his investors — including Josh and his co-workers. Determined to reclaim the retirement funds Shaw stole from them, they turn to a petty crook named Slide (Eddie Murphy) to help them break into Shaw’s home.ā
I hold the lantern up, searching for the promised haven, a panacea of comfort. I am not an apprentice in the world of loving someone, but I want to be careful. I want this dreamlike stage to be permanent. I suppose this is truly only a fantasy.
āThe beer industry has been battered by the pandemic, and a carbon dioxide shortage is the latest blow to production. Prices for carbon dioxide spiked in August, and it could cause production cuts and price hikes. Just in time for Oktoberfest. š¢ā
At least this news article doesnāt cause me any mental anguishš
Itās a cool sunny day here in my home in Wyoming, and thatās the way I like it! Autumn is here, my favorite time of year and even though the retailers are pushing Christmas, I like the fall holidays. It makes me wonder if the Christmas stuff including edible items are all from last yearās stockā like unsold Easter candy? Well that ruined my appetite, Iām just having coffee.
Tried to download the new upgrade and everything went blooeyš±. Then I was sent multiple messages to enter a passcode – a set of six numbers and I did so over and over to be told they were incorrect even though copied off message correctly. I had to change my password. Then was told everything would be merged into the cloud and my photos etc could only be accessed there. What the dickens? My phone had been acting up so when I first tried to download the upgrade thinking it would fix anything, it wouldnāt do it. Weird, or is it just me, again??? Calgon , take me away!
And so for todayās poetry prompt itās all about couples, twos, in other words couplets!
1. The Cote ā a poem of uneven couplets attributed to John Schroeder. L1 being a single imperative verb, L2 is a glossing or expansion of L1. Rhyme and meter is of your own choosing. For example:
Legacyā¦to me this means something of value you give to your relatives or friends when you pass away. I really donāt have much to offer my family in this respect. This year when my granddaughter turned 16, I gave her my gold circle locket necklace that has my initials and birthdate on it which I received at a 16th birthday, 60 years ago. If thatās considered a legacy then so be it.
We have moved so much and I have two storage units but thereās rarely anything in there that I would consider to have enough value to give or leave to anyone.
When my mom died, I wanted something but really received nothing except a pair of earrings and it saddens me to see pics of my three sisterās homes with items I might wish to have had. But I lived two thousand miles away and that was the excuse.
When my father died there were items that I wouldāve like to have given my grandkids but his new wife sold or gave away to strangers all of his things. Even a family bible to a stranger.
Iāve already told my family that if thereās anything they ever want just take it now because I donāt need it and if they can use it, have at it. My daughter and I were looking at jewelry yesterday for a steampunk party outfit and I looked at my plain white gold wedding band and asked her, āwell I wonder if theyāll cremate me with this ring on or would you like to have it?ā She looked at me and incredulously and said, āof course Iād want itā. And then we had a laugh because everybody in the family thinks Iām immortal because Iāve already died twice from meds reactions. So I guess problem solved.
Just like everything else in life if you want to survive you have to have a sense of humor.
