I grew up watching the original #StarTrek. I was excited for #StarfleetAcademy. And so disappointed. It had such promise. Then the "chancellor" of the academy was portrayed as a barefoot hippie. I expect more from Star Trek leadership. The 2nd season has been filmed. And that's the end. Cancelled.
Starfleet Academy has been a gigantic disappointment.
The world makes me sad... and angry. Very very angry.
I can't have the vaccine. I have a zero titer. These people scare me to death. Literally.
I baked a #cake (chocolate fudge from a box) for the 1st time is ages. Maybe decades. I put it together wrong. Top layer upside down. It only took a moment. But hard to correct. Flipped it. More frosting in the middle. Very light on the sides. It's OK. I bet the grands won't care that it's wonky.
Not risking it. I'm sure baseball fans & California appreciate my dedication.
I decided to watch the World Series once. They had a devastating earthquake. Sports appreciates your participation much more than mine.
Bought 2 new 1000 piece #puzzles. I really did not intend to pick up a new #hobby. I just like that it sits quietly & waits for me to come visit.
I ordered a pizza with a 6 cheese blend. Waited until after eating it to look up the cheeses. Mozzarella, Provolone, Fontina, Asiago, Parmesan, and Romano.
Fontina, Asiago & Romano are new for me. Add to Brie & Cream cheese and I'm up to EIGHT whole cheeses. Oh, and small bits of cheddar - NINE!
I just called a business and was given the option of turning off the hold music. How wonderful!
I represent a holy* organization seeking donations. It does the soul** good to be supportive.
*my socks
**the bottoms of my feet
Wanting all the fancy #socks is expensive.
Sometimes I could benefit from a furry tail for my nose... and ears.
We started the day after with a heart attack. I agree, let's have a healthy 2026.
Changed up my entertainment. Very temporarily. Instead of #book & #tea, I'm working a 1000 piece #puzzle & tea. I rarely do puzzles. I should have stuck to the 500 piece version.
Spent a few extra minutes snuggled in bed
Ate/Made a special treat
Hugged a loved one/friend
Watched a sunrise/sunset
Found some ME time
Add a head on car wreck.
I am a solo voice screaming into the void.
Our Christmas is more tradition, than anything else. Very Pagan, I suspect. Tree. Gifts. If I had a fireplace, a yule log would be nice.
I try not to stress what I cannot control. I try to take 1 thing at a time. But life is stacking up on me. Another death in the family. That's 2 in < 4 months. Car trying to go kaput. Screwed up a credit card payment that's going to cost me. And all things Christmas. It will be what it will be. Sad.
Happy Thanksgiving
I noticed today a little bell icon at the top of a friend's profile. You can click it to get notified when a friend posts. Maybe I won't have to wade through so much 'other.'
I'm not reading a #book.
None in progress.
I forgot to stop by the #library.
I was tired.
Finished an e-book last night.
Don't want to start another, I'm giddy for the books at the library.
It is rare that I'm not reading.
Tomorrow. ::singing:: Annie moment.
Well, they've stolen everything else, so . . .
Your #president went to the Supreme Court to keep from paying full #SNAP benefits.
#USDA said grocery stores can not offer discounts to SNAP recipients.
Your #government doesn't care if you go #hungry. Happy #holidays. 😞 #LetThemEatCake🍰
Gingko trees at #Bernheim. So pretty. And a little smelly.
The funeral home does not do their own cremations. So, what the crematorium doesn't know...
;)
Well, I guess I have to depend on my sons to fulfill my wishes. I put birdseed in a friend's casket. I always wondered if it popped in any form.
I planned our #cremation & burial today. Pre-planned, pre-paid, toast to earth. No visitation. I told them I wanted popcorn in my pockets before cremation. Got to find ways to express myself. I have friends volunteering for the role of #death. Just to stand off in the distance. Quiet & mysterious.
How mature.
