Another morning, another day. Soup is in the making in the Instant Pot. There’s a load of laundry waiting downstairs to be hung. I’ve messed around with this new theme for my blog site with a few results. Technology can be wonderful but can be a great waste of time. My cough is better but still present. Energy comes and goes but at least the sun is shining on me. It is a cool 7℃ outside. The sunroom and greenhouse is toasty. I am sure my bitter melons are still happy.
I am not sure what to write for this 22nd day of October and the Ultimate Blog Challenge. My head is rather empty and hollow. I wish I had a business to promote. It’s a silly thing to wish for since I am not at all bent that way. I am the same politically. As for religion, I’ve lost my interest if not my faith. There was a time when I felt Jesus’ loving arms though I was not religious nor searching. Isn’t life strange?

I suppose I’ve come to a new crossroad. Now which way do we go, Billy? I hearing that song from the jukebox in my head now. 1969 seems like a great year from here. I was a star stuck teenager. I wrote to Terry Jacks of the Poppy Family and I got a reply! I don’t know which way I’m going from here. I’ll just rest awhile before making a decision.
Well, Lily, your day sounds like a delightful mix of cozy and contemplative! Instant Pot soup, laundry adventures, and blog theme tweaking – a true modern Renaissance. And I hear you on the tech-time-wasting struggle, but hey, it’s all part of the journey, right? Your sunny day vibes and warm greenhouse are giving me life envy right now.
Thank you, Paul. No sun to warm up today but warmed up by good company.
Lily, your day sounds great to me! I am about to do 2 or 3 articles on what we want, don’t want, and want-to-want. Maybe those will help you. I tell my clients to notice and jot down what draws their interest or lights up their heart energy, for a few days. Today, in a widow’s grief group, we were talking about our new identities evolving after our husbands died; my passion for food ministry bubbled up to the point that I cried. Ding! I need to do more with food ministry! So what moves you? Blessings to you–
Thank you, Kebba. I’m feeling much better today. Besides cold better, the pain clinic is offering hope for my mother. That moves me.
Lily, PS, I had to look up the Poppy Family. Jim Carrey’s character sang one of their songs in a movie a few years ago. You never know when your work will be noticed and appreciated.
Jim Carey is also Canadian.
