Something To Read And Look At
I wanted to say something but didn't know what words to use.
It's times like this I wonder why out of everywhere I could be right now, I'm where they're expected.
Sometimes I'll throw a bunch in a hat, ~words, and then retrieve one at a time and stick it to the fridge like a magnet until something makes sense.
It's easier to write what I'm not saying
(Said the fridge)
Takes forever though. I had to write and tear out, crumble up and toss in a hat, one Iron Maiden song title for that sentence and not everyone in attendance knows who in the world they are.
That's disturbing.
As you can see they're not getting us anywhere, words.
What you're about to experience now are called memories. I save them on my device sometimes, ~memories. What I do is, point it at things and click a button. Below are some examples while I figure out what to say.
It's a tree.
Or, a bush.
A tree or bush with flowers on it, they’re white. I know a body of water when I see one and that's either a river or a lake for sure. Other than that and some limestone scattered along the shoreline, I got nothin. Next!
Walking trail—yata yata. Seen one, seen'em all. It's made of wood, woopty-do. It's on the side of a cliff with a rushing river below and a snow capped mountain ahead.
Booorring.
Moving
along.
They're famous in San Francisco.
16th Avenue Tiled Steps, they're called. They're made for stepping and they're tiled and they're on 16th Ave, not much for originality. Some match the flowers in the garden and some don't. Two trees up top are having a Trump hair day, big deal.
Sunsets.
Or not, whatever. What goes up must come down or everything's in the dark all the time and something else about sunblock, I got nothin.
What else? Looks like we got some as seen on TV stuff like Budapest and Paris, the shit they feed their kids in The South and what the
HEALTH
is that?!
It IS!
I've seen that photo I don't know many times and not once did I see it.
I couldn't get any closer to the duck than that. As dark as the little thing is, you'd think it’d camouflage better in the water but you’d be wrong, it doesn't. But a pour in place, concrete base, multi-purpose-use moth-erfuck-in cinder block?!
I almost missed it.
Not one word about the perfect rainbow!
What happened @dandays? You're never lost for words!
Touché! I've been off my game lately. I totally meant to say they're popular in San Francisco. = }
Shew, I think your response has more words than your post!
What post?
I'm sure you heard all about a square peg won't fit in a round hole but what about 14 trees in a round hole?
I secretly kidnapped and gagged him.
Aha that explains it!
😂 I did my best but can't confirm details.
I've yet to meet a woman or man or neither or both or Wtf ever who doesn't want to gag me.
You were warned. You asked for it.
Your creativity is very nice, you are a good writer ✍️. I love that post
I love your comment more.
Really, I'm not just fumbling for words. Thank you.
So much words but the rainbow was my favourite. Even though you failed to mention her! The most epic rainbow! But you subject us to a cinder block monologue 😂😂😂😂

Then, I was..
How are you, Ms Pants? Glad you didn't mind this one. I don't know if you noticed or not but I had a good time putting it together.
The rambling showed off the humour as well. You always seem to have a lot of fun with connecting them all together!
I'm good hey, just hustling hard! Finding it difficult to carve out some time to write some decent posts. Lots of intentions but never happening and also lots of random pieces of writing. I should string them all together hey lol.
How are you doing Dan the man?
Any better would be illegal if that counts.
Thanks for asking. You? Got anything going on today that you're embarrassed to share with the public? = }
Does your notepad look like mine? Mine's loaded up with opening sentences. Some are long enough to make a paragraph but are sitting on idle following the first period.
:crickets:
Actualy image from my notepad! Try and make sense!
Im actually really proud of this notepad, its the first i have in a long time thta is actually my own. My daughter has been stealing them previously and making doodles in them. She is finally old enough yo reapect my shit!
Oh, that. You mean she's old enough not to not get caught.
I've spent a lot of time trying to make sense of images I've saved but that one's special.
lol sorry i fixed it for you!
Naaa she is actually getting a little pedantic. I bought her a notebook as well and told her this is mom's one, and she must please not draw in it lol. She even put mine at my desk and everything! But I must admit, I do secretly like finding the cool stuff randomly when I'm in meetings. Makes me smile. I guess I love the little pedantic bugger!
SOOOOOOO much easier!!
Loss for words is one thing but if my images showed up in text format like that I'd be photo finished.
It wasn't that cheesy during trials.
Just about everyone I know has kids. I do not but I've been around them since the day they were born until now. They all send me their little graduation card, bastages! = } Love'em to death. The little girls especially, boys too, but less than half. Girls, however, they won't talk to me.
3, 4, 5 years old... :crickets:
Something about age 7 though. Soon as they hit 7, they won't STFU! = }
LOL they like you but arent' shy to talk! They need confidence. Mine is the same, she likes certain uncles but is too shy. Until she makes the connection! It's usually awkward with kids peeps, are you awkward? LOL
No, of course not. Other than referring to them as little germ infested beings, I'm totally smooth.
Rainbows are female?
I didn't even notice! I guess that's how they identify as! Their pronouns are her, she, wow, look! 😂
😂 I figured you didn't notice, but I found it irresistable to comment on. I identify with being. Not sure how pronouns work with that. 😂
bawahahhaaha! How can you not? if the opportunity presents itself you just gotta take it by the rainbow! !LOLZ

What are we looking at in the shopping cart - is it something specific or just that it's a full cart with only processed food and no actual vegetables or meat?
Typical cart around here, exactly as you described. No actual anything that isn't processed or requires sunlight and water to grow.
And a lot of it.
It's quite full haha
Even the shelf on the bottom.
Dude I don't know how they do it. If I skip water for a day I can't poop.

! help(no space) to get help on Hive. InfoA couple weeks ago I had surgery on my arm. Hospital waiting room, 7am, myself and certainly a handful of other patients are fasting, waiting to be called back and have our procedure done.
Three, 1, 2, 3. That's how many massive ass gigantic asses who can't fit in a normal waiting room chair and who've never met, each sitting in various parts of the hospital waiting room shoving Chic-Fil-A in their disrespectful face at 7 in the morning, fingers dripping lard, so the whole joint wreaks of salt and processed grease.
I was fasting.
I'm not bitter at all, can you tell?
psssh yoou don't sound bitter in the least amount! I mean, who would be? Grease! Who needs that lard? ESpecially if it's attached to someone's ass!
Fasting does thing to ppl though. lots of things we cant explain.
how is the arm?
Long way to go unfortunately. I've had zero use of my right hand, the dominant one, since the beginning of February.
Thanks for asking. Nerve damage.. F'ing horrible.
How the heck are you, though? Most exciting thing on your agenda this weekend in 2.. 1.. Go!
Man how did you manage that? I have so many dirty jokes to make here but I'm going to pass on it, on account i first want to know serious the situation is, then i will mock you regardless of the outcome !LOL
sorry for the delay, had a busy Friday and then also weekend exploded. Most exciting thing was soaking up the winter sun on various walks!

Never a bad time for Mimi. Hey, you're not dating Andy now, are you, and shit canned Mike?
Kidding. I was just updated on some drama back home the other day. Her name's Mimi.
Did you snap any pictures?
I need to make some adjustments, that's what. Apparently if I lift something that's questionably too heavy anymore, I won't just feel strain in muscles and joints, there's potential to shred a nerve that runs from the elbow to the hand that's responsible for controlling the muscle that functions both your index and thumb.
My dominant.
Been this way since Feb. If this wasn't public, I'd tell you how out of all my surgeries and the parts of me that are already broken, this loss of my right hand is the most terrifying.
Lol I'm still dating Herbie. I married him remember. I feel like Im stuck with him. But. I love him man, so his stuck with me too! Now you caught up with my love too! !LOLZ
Not much pics, I suck at that. Mostly take them with my eyes! I mostly have pics of my kid these days. Man that so lame. But she is tooo cute!
Dude I'm sorry about the arm. What brought on the lack of feeling though? Is it an arthritis thing? My dad's was so bad he had a high pain threshold. Broke his ankle once and hardly felt the pain! What is the recovery plan and how much feeling can you get back?
I hope you heal up fast! Look after yourself man. You only have one body!

The lack of control is due to that nerve. I'm told they're like elastic and need to repair themselves. They filleted my arm and manually massaged that nerve by separating it from muscles and tendons and stuff in an effort to speed up the nerves natural recovery.
No arthritis or anything, just lifting tree stumps that were too heavy, shocked that nerve and now it doesn't work.
I'm told I should see some sort of movement in my finger and thumb some time between now and October 1. And I'm told I won't gain full control and strength of my hand until 'about winter, next year.'
This looks very eina! But I'm hoping scars will make your arm look more bad ass than the tats. Sucks to go through this. But just take it easy man. Heal up fast! Maybe it's life way to tell you slow down a bit!
How are you even typing? with your lefty? Taking it real slow hey?
Thanks for being nice Mimi. It's all I can tell myself these days; for whatever reason, not having my hand right now is what's necessary.
Kinda embarrassing really, don't tell anyone I told you. = } I'm using a text to talk app. But it doesn't always use proper grammar, about 50% of the time probably. So, I text to talk, then edit with my left hand. Mhm.
Lame.
hahhahaha its not that lame, its actually pretty innovative! Something to keep you going! Better than bugging Pura to type for you and getting annoyed. This way is safer. Less risky. Prolong the destruction of your other arm!
Also things could be worse, this could be you:
I would stick to innovation! I sometimes think it would be easier to create content like this. Maybe i should give it a go!

I saw potatoes, onions, and bananas.
It's like an I spy book
😂 It is. That itself would be a great post idea.
Yeah true. I think there might be a cabbage in there too.
I missed that. I wonder if that cabbage is this.
Imagine going to a pool party as a kid where they're all "we'll have fresh heads of cabbage for everyone!"
Lmao 😂
Orange you glad it didn't say banana?
Have you been brushing up on ancient knock knock jokes?
Sounds painful.
:Knock Knock:

All im thinking is how many fucking pies can one eat!
So many pies 😂
Life should only be lived if it is lived like Iron Maiden lyrics.
Whoever don't know that don't know Eddie.
He is quite the undead thing!
Only an Eddiot would question such a thing.
At least in am Eddiocracy they are free to question!
I clearly am missing a key element....goes back to the smithing station to hammer out an Iron Maiden....
There a time to live and a time to die...
and a time to meet your maker!
That just made me bust an involuntary laugh.
The question is, who is one's maker and are we made in a blender shaker?
I think suppose of us might be mate in a blender shaker. I suspect I probably was 🙂
As to the great maker,hmmm. Over can only find out by meeting them in person!
If you are, there's definitely cats, electric guitars, and bamboo in the blend.
I tried that, all I found was an abyss full of abominable creatures.
Oh noes! Why do they always cluster in abysses? Bloody abysmal creatures!
I do love my guitars bamboo and cats! :OD
I think it's possibly because we all unknowingly live in the abyss. Then there's that thing about Dante's nine (yikes) levels of hell which I have avoided reading in it's entirety.
I can't look at bamboo growing here without thinking of your bamboo trees. Did you have any luck with getting that black beauty one started from seed?
I didn't. I couldn't get a single seed to sprout. Bastard thing. I replaced it with two different types of golden bamboo. I hope it learns from this! 🙂
If we all live unknowingly in the abyss then when we look into the abyss we are truly only seeing ourselves look back at us... Yeek!
Oh that's horrible! I really loved the black bamboo. Still have never seen it anywhere except in your garden.
You gave it a good Scottish smack down I bet.
Yes. Disturbing as fug isn't it.
I do have another black bamboo which is quite young (hopefully). It is not one I grew and seems to be struggling to become big and awesome. I will give it time though. Just as long as it doesn't flower before it's a beast!!
It is very disturbing!!
So it's not the species that goes to seed that fast? A different black one? I ought to do a little reading on bamboo species. I find I'm drawn to the black one. It's like black or dark purple tomatoes. Seems like they ought not to be that colour, yet they are and beautifully so.
Banish that thought to the 9th level of the abyss.
It's the same species but when the seeds grow into adult bamboos they all flower and for at the same time no matter where they are. Fortunately my second one is a different family as it were.
The 9th circle it is!!
Oh what a thing. They flower, all at once, seed, then die. Cycle of life. Maybe this second one you have won't do that so quickly. A wait and see game.
😂
It is quite poetic isn't it!
Like a whispering leaf in autumn. = }~
Hehe, quite!
As long as it's not pooptic ;)
Heh heh

Really?

You stretched it short here among those red balls.
One time I was in Paris and we were enjoying sights and crepe normandie and pastries and fashion and stuff that Paris is known for when out of my peripheral I saw a produce stand like time out!
That's an heirloom. :click:
Define what heirloom seed is. I bet you have to check. 😁 Paris is so hot, bet you'd love being there right now.

If what I did helped you then call me _______ and throw me in the _______ cuz I've been having such a difficult time with words lately like that's what they put in their face on this side of the ocean. They all do, she's not a one-off.
How are you Ms. Beeber? I hope you're feeling alright. <3
I just saw that mention. I wouldn't miss your serenade for nothin!!
not at my best, but still I am very okay :-)
who needs words ;-) look at us, only really understanding 50% of what the other says we still find a way to dedect the true meaning. I think. Or we just think whatever we want to think LOL
Is there any sort of window in the future where you'll potentially feel better than ever?
That was really well said.
Is that fresh? What you said. Do you think you felt that way, say, two years ago?
When I come through these times I'm sure will be at best conditon I ever have been.
Guess it started all two years ago. Seems to be true what they say look back from where the disease started, 6 - 18 months on which stress you had back then.
Anyway... Lamenting at a high level. I dont know my body this way, so tired, so unreliable. But still its very okay compared to others.
Ah fuck, Beeber. What a painful reminder.
Imagining your day to day makes these physical ailments plaguing me elementary.
Hey ❤️ dont worry

That's a lot of dots for my imagination to fill in.

Great post about a women buying foods as if ITS THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT! Or could it be, she lives too FAR AWAY from civilization? Or maybe she simply doesnt know a way, that finally one day she could sing: "I SAVED THE WORLD TODAY"

And who doesn’t know Iron Maiden 😎
The photos say a lot already I have to give you that.
Have a lovely Tuesday 👋🏻😊
You're doing it again, being all sweet and stuff.
Hello, littlebee. Thanks for coming over again. I knew I'd catch some Europeans attention (London, well, used to be.. you know...) with that one.
Are you still by yourself?
Of course… for you always 😊👋🏻
Hello you, how are you both and Atlas?
Happy to read your posts.
Hahaha never lived in London lol but European yep… I’m here. 🤙🏻
Guess what… change of plans… as.. “why not?” …. I flew ✈️✈️✈️ today to the UK to join hubby until he can move mid July.
This way I can visit some friends and finalise some paperwork here and close that UK chapter.
We drive (and import the car) over with a short ferry the 11th, to Ireland 😎
Man, that's cool. Where did you fly into, what part of the UK are in right now? Don't worry, I'm not a stalker. Neat, we spent enough time there I can almost see your path.
Did he get you at the airport or did you hop on a train, Uber? I so miss not needing a car. Can't live without personal transportation in the US, won't work.
Will you ferry out of Wales into Ireland? I don't remember if one leaves Liverpool. You got like, what, two weeks?
Fun. And the weather probably isn't totally shitty right now. Meh.. it probably is. = }
I flew into East Midlands… hubby came and picked me up of course 😉
We are around Stamford area. So let’s say… I explore up to 1 hour around here for a bit.
The last 3 nights before we hop on the ferry we stay in Chester. Just under Liverpoool. To explore it.
We stopped there last time and it looked great to stay longer than just a dinner.
The ferry is Holyhead/ Wales into Dublin. As we need customs for the car import.
Last time when I went over it was Liverpool to Belfast. And a night ferry. The one in July is a day ferry and fast ⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️
Yes me too. I love public transport. Used it always in Dutchyland or south Spain.
I brought some Irish weather over. They had hot sunny weather and now it’s cloudy and rainy 😉 but all good. I don’t mind. One can dress for it. !LOL

Since we crossed paths I think we've been talking about this. You think this is it, two weeks, and you'll both be parked there? Very patient, you've been.
That was better than google maps. I know that ferry out of Wales. So fun, many memories.
Traveling all through UK and Ireland, Liverpool was our favorite. It had the most 'familiar feel.' Has anyone ever told you it resembles California more than anywhere else on that continent?
Just wondering if I said it first.
Congrats, you. Good luck. Thank you.
Oh yes we did.
I officially moved already to Ireland 7 May. Hubby will move 11th July. I had to miss him for many weeks.
This will definitely be it for now. We really go for it. (Depending work of course as that could still change things) but… let’s just go with the flow for now 😎😁
Oh I have been, still I think we would have been better of in Massachusetts 😋
I haven’t been on that ferry yet, so looking forward to it. Will be sure fun.
That’s cool to hear (as a first 😉) we did enjoy Liverpool in May too.
Looking forward to Chester later.
Nope, never heard that one yet.
Thanks @dandays 😊 have a wonderful Thursday… almost weekend ☺️

Me wanty BBQ now.
There's a great deal that I like, yes. Since somewhere around 2014/15 I decreased the amount of time I listen to all music to a bare minimum. It's ironic that you chose this song to introduce me to. Instead of music, I've been mostly listening to either the sound of silence (literally) or whatever sounds are present wherever I am in whatever moment.
I will always prefer this version, even though it's before my time. Probably due to musical influences where I'm from.
I have a while that I don’t listen to music and then after a while I listen non stop.
Especially when I create my art… it’s always on… like I even forget about time… forget to eat or drink at times hahaha 🤣 but the music is there, I just submerge myself in my art. Depending on my mood what I go into. But much is influenced with rock all the way up to gothic.
That’s rather interesting you say that. You listened to “sound of silence” and I come with this cover… wow 🤩
The original… yes, nothing compared with them and the music of that time. It’s also just before my time. But it is the music I grew up with.
Where are you from?
I lived so far in 7 countries… mainly Europe though I must say 😎
Have a great evening!
You reminded me of something. I used to always listen to music when creating until I began carving miniature sculptures, which changed me in ways I have no words to describe. Something about working so tiny put me into this meditative process so deeply that external sounds became non-existent. I stopped playing music when creating without consciously realizing it until now and only because of what you've said.
Yes, it just did that to me too. Made me go "Wow".
Sometimes I like the orignal song better, sometimes I like remakes better, sometimes I like both equally.
I can't claim 7 countries, that's cool. Which countries did you live in, which one was your fav, and why? (Twenty questions game, well just 3 actually, 😄)
I'm from Canada, but lived in different parts. Only other country I've lived in for a short time was the States.
Oh that’s cool… so you know the state I am in when I create… it’s like that. I do put music on… but it fades away. Sometimes I “wake up” and realise a day is fully gone and haven’t eaten or drunk anything haha lol it’s like a trance… meditative.
Now you realise it too.
Somehow very interesting. 🤔
It all depends on one’s mood / feelings at that moment I think, what we like the most at that time.
Even music or just silence…
Are you close connected to nature too. I am… when I walk into a forest or along an empty beach, no other people around… I can recharge.
As business can drain me especially people.
No worries, ask away 😉
I started in France but was too young to remember when my parents left when I was 2 years old… then Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Malta, back to Spain, Uk (Scotland and then the remote west coast) but only for 4 months and I moved last month to Ireland. So all is new and I am still in exploring mood 🤓
That’s cool Canada, it’s large enough to move around and visit other areas. I think in total I moved almost 50 times now hahaha 🤣 I think it’s time to settle.
Have a lovely evening.
Yes, that's it exactly. From your description, I see you know it very well. We're talking about the same experience in different ways.😂
It absolutely is. The deeper you go in that manner, the more you see, learn, and grow. 😉
Yes. It's constantly changing. Watching it happen is also interesting.
Yes. Always. Also the recharge the way you describe.
Yes on that for me also.
Wow and wow! I'm always a little floored by the way it's possible to go to so many different countries to live, visit, etc. Perspective from living where I do.
You'd probably have travelled and lived all over Canada by now if you were situated here and have moved 50 times! There are cultural differences in Canada, depending on what part you're in, it's just more subtle. This is what I noticed when travelling and living in the different areas.
I never thought about that until not that long ago, my mother told me I'd "settled and made a home" in the area I live in at present. Then I started wondering how that horrid settling thing had happened to me. 😂
Enjoy your weekend, cheers!
That’s just awesome so many similarities we have.
Very interesting 😁
Life just lays out this path for me somehow. When I lived with my parents even… until I was 16 when I moved out and lived on my own… they moved every year to 2 years. Including 3 countries. So it is something that happened since I was born actually.
At the moment, because the last 7 moves or so, were because of work. It gets draining… it’s so exhausting after a while. And getting older 😋 hahaha !LOL
I think it’s time to settle. Although… a base to call “home” for once would be nice.
I can imagine if I would have lived in Canada that I would have seen a lot. Wow…
The change there will be subtle. But still there. I understand.
The ones I found by changing countries the way I did can be challenging.
It does teach you a lot, and I think because of it… I can adjust to any situation actually 😎
Your mind changes so much.
Sounds like you did settle 🤓 interesting you didn’t realise before, and it just happened. Hahaha 🤣
I never had that as roots didn’t go deep anywhere. Let’s see… maybe one day.
I know already I will move within a year again 😳🫣
Thanks a lot @nineclaws enjoy your Sunday 👋🏻😊

Yes, quite a few similarities. Funny how that goes.
You've got moving around running in your blood from the beginning, no wonder! Moving does get draining. Prior to where I live now, I moved around a lot. I anticipate my next move will be my last one, although not sure where I'll end up this time. Somewhere in Canada though.
That. That's a whole thing unto itself. So many things to deal with; but a really great experience to have with a ton of learning opportunities.
I can only imagine how that would be. A world of many different ways of seeing must flower in the mind.
I suppose I didn't realize I had settled because I was very focused on a particular path I'd chosen that took sixteen years of hard work to reach my final goal. Settling where I have was never my plan. It just worked out that way by accident of circumstances.
I can't see that as a bad thing. I never intended to settle anywhere. Once you do, it can become entrenched and not so easy to leave. That's been my experience.
Right back at you, except I think it's Monday here now. I lost track the last 3 days. 😂
Indeed funny how those things can go.
Yep, it definitely looks like that. It’s in my blood hahaha 🤣
Never say never or the last one. You never know what can happen next 😉 I sooooo know.
The things I don’t like about moving countries. So much to learn in a short time to get all the paperwork in order. So much to deal with from day 1.
It does teach you a lot, in a very short time… as you just have too. Even a foreign language… just throw yourself in there and it will be lots of fun 🤩
That sounds just lovely, even with the hard work and all what it took. It just happened and now you settled.
I know, it doesn’t have to be a bad thing. I just look at it now as one step closer to my goal 😉😎
One more experience… one more adventure and many more to come.
Thank you so much @nineclaws 👋🏻😊 are you sure it’s Monday… as you are behind of me and here it’s Sunday evening.
Hope you catch up a bit… maybe… you suddenly have another day 😋
!ALIVE
I bet you do. I'll amend what I said to this; I'm arranging for it to be my very last move before I become dust.🙃
At another time (long gone by), it would have been fun. Where I am now, I'd perceive it very differently. Call me world weary.
I'd describe it as trial by fire. Lovely in that all of it laid a solid foundation for what came next, which took challenging to a whole other level. Call that one a lifelong goal I was never consciously aware of until I reached it ten years ago and when I did, it took me two years to realize what had happened. Probably that doesn't make a lot of sense, but it's impossible to describe in words. 😂 Suffice to say, I accomplished all the major goals in my life at that point.
I really like your way of seeing it.
O M G, you're right!!! Wow! It's been a rough few days of being a stand-in psw (not my profession). My sense of time is all messed up now. That's hilarious! I'm grateful to have another day, YAY!
Enjoy your Sunday evening, really a pleasure to chat with you and get to know you a little bit, thanks. 😊
Sounds like a solid plan you have 🤓😁
Oh I understand… the world weary bit. There comes a time we don’t need drama in our lives anymore.
Just being happy and enjoying life and nature around us. With the people we love…
We don’t need much… actually 😉
I think I get it. All is connected in every way. Until one “sees”
So good to hear you did have another day and found out on time. Especially with being a stand in psw.
I can imagine things can skew your perspective.
Thanks a lot. I enjoyed my Sunday.
Good morning to you 👋🏻😊☀️ have a wonderful Monday!
Likewise, really nice to be chatting with you. I am Jackie btw 😉
Solid like flowing water 😂.
Yes, I see you get this completely by the way you speak. Very little needed is a dart in the bullseye.
Somehow it's Thursday too fast for my list of things that need attention. I hope your week is flowing along with peaceful moments. Nice to meet you Jackie. I'm One-of-Many-Claws, a name I was gifted.
Hehehe like flowing water. But you know. Water is very strong and powerful 😉
Indeedy. Got the same feeling from you.
I know, time seems to be going rather fast lately. Soon it’s weekend again.
It is going well so far. Saturday a city break away and next week a ferry over back to Ireland after visiting friends and family for 2 weeks.
Thank you so much 👋🏻😊
That’s a wonderful name to be gifted.
Have a great Thursday and I hope you get through your to do list.

That last one she showed you might maybe, might not be the number I mentioned. = }
It better not be the number you mentioned because that's @brandt's number. He's owned that one for a while.
Did someone say 666?
😂 Count the number of @brandt, @dandays, and know it is the number of the beast................ (you can fill in the dots since you're far better at quoting verse than I)
Your wishful thinking is showing...
That's Route 66 to you.
This was interesting to read and view....as the photos kept me awestruck. So much beauty in one post. My favorite was the picture with the rainbow, the the sunset, then the stairs(I think the stairs are really artistic)
Did you capture them on mobile or with a camera?
Those stairs I got with my barely hanging on by a thread iphone 8. The Eiffel Tower with a GoPro. Would you believe there's one in there I took with an LG flip phone. Remember those thing? That was a long time ago.
Otherwise, the majority of everything you see from me is either iPhone or GoPro. I'm the least savvyest guy in this thread.
Always nice to see you, Wongi, <3 thanks for asking.
Noo way! I remember the flip phones but I wouldn't believe that their camera would capture a clear picture. Let me guess; was it the walking trail? Or the first sunset.
Wrong and wrong. Ooooh, I'm smiling with my eyes, I got lucky. Again.
Thanks so much for playing!
Dodged a bullet with that one.
Now who would believe this?😅. There's something about the picture, is it the old gun, or the location or just the fact that I love seeing antiques.
How long has it been there for?
That location I don't know. It's on display at a popular park tourists go to. Itself, however, is 19th century.
That's one park I'd love to visit:)
All good shots, but man... that rainbow! Looks like someone was having a snack attack at the store. Perhaps the family doctor and dentist are all the more wealthy for it. Now I'm not saying that snackie types things don't appear in my shopping cart from time to time, but for the most part it's full of meat, produce and cheeeeese!
You'll be back on your roll in due time...it's just a speed bump lol
Dear Ms Lovelace.
Hello. I'm glad I put that one in there, it's getting some nice reviews. I've had it for awhile, I should've shown you a long time ago I guess.
I'd say it's a one off and all that processed shit's probably expired so they're donating it but even when I don't have words, they're not lies. They all shop like that here, Ms Ace. Ok, maybe just one—lie. When Pura tells me don't take pictures, I say ok. = }
Well in your defense...Pura makes a lovely subject for pictures, so she can't blame you!
This all sounds like so much scrabble word game playing.
Fridges are smart these days.
This is my lifelong opinion of words. Could never sum it up in one sentence. Thank you for your words.
Or, a shrub.
Maligner of wood. May the sacred trees get you good.

What is whatever in this set that’s not setting?
Yeah, they do that.
But a tan.........
They feed them Lawn Fertilizer with 2% Iron???
Oh wait, no, you mean the weird shirted one with the cartload of synthetic substance substitutes. Oh double wait, I think I see potatoes, onions and is that weird yellow green blurish thing bananas?
I just realized it’s you who is eating lawn fertilizer, or maybe it’s just grass you’re ingesting.
If that’s a duck, the swan looks like it’s considering use of the cinderblock to bludgeon it to the bottom.
What swan?
My fridge is S0Ooo Smart.. It prank calls other refrigerators and asks if their toilet's running.
= }
I'm from the land of convenience. Anything you need is on the corner. We don't go to three and four joints for groceries like normal cultures cuz the bread guy and the vegetable lady are completely different crafts, no, hell no. Fuck that shit, I said convenience, we're American for fuck sake, we see distance in time cuz everything's on a schedule. Ask one of my peeps how far the post office is and they won't say "3 miles," it's always time—"10 minutes."
I'm so far off now.
All I meant to say was bet your ass we can buy fertilizer and motor oil and vegetable oil and canola oil and synthetic 10W engine oil and, it's not as bad as it sounds but, baby oil at the same place we get butter..
I can't believe you can't differentiate bird species.
@corvidae, I think he's beyond help with bird identification but maybe, just maybe, you might be able to feather his nest with some birdness knowledge. Either that, or just peck his green eyes out after pooping on his head. I hear green eyes are a delicacy.
You're overselling your not-so-smart fridge. That joke's so poop encrustated it died in the last flush flood.
Essentially you're saying you shop/live/face scan at big box stores? Distance described in time increments is a big city thing you can't return on time, unlike big box stores.
That's a gentle way of describing what I'm witnessing.
I take it you're already used to eating it in your butter.
Pooping on his head? All that, 145 words and voice memos to say pooping on his head.
What do you mean, it?
If the engine oil goes in engines and the vegetable in veggies then..
Seriously though, I'm serious, it's a cinder block. I even circled it to avoid possible confusion. It's right above the part where I said is that a fucking cinder block, in red.
I cite a triple virgo placement as the reason.
You know, It, don't make me fingerlip say it specially specifically spoon feeding you It.
it's in everything.
Seriously serially sirius, it's a cinder block, stop, drop, white curving round 360 stop circle, mhm. Guess birds aren't even on your radar, shame about @corvidae.
That red bled me blind thought notta kind slight, me being bred red, you saying now red means dead fugging cincer block, then what the flock are those fake birds?
You and @dandays trying to get me in on this argument? I left my threesome days in my twenties...
What are you up to now?
I'm bird shaming him for ignoring all birds in preference of a cinder block.
Purr her her her fect...
I juss pulled over for the night on i-20 about an hour west of Augusta, GA. TMI..? Oh there is more. I am laying here in the sleeper bunk in my skivvies...
...settling in to watch season 2 ep. 1 of Star Trek - Strange New Worlds on Paramount+.
When I am done with what I have been L👀king forward to L👀king at all day. I will be L👀king for...
"Something to READ & L👀K @"
I lol'd and not just the acronym. That was funny. Not like The Jerk though. My words. They're everywhere.
Whaddup!
Peak of his career, Steve Martin's best flick.
It's probably hot down there. By there I mean Georgia.
"He hates these cans!"
See what I mean?
I liked his stand up and SNL stuff also.
Who you calling Jerk?? Muddafukka... Lmao
Ever heard of TMI?
Now that was certainly something to read and look at. Lovely upskirt shot of the Eiffel Tower there.
That happens to me almost every day. Kudos to you for finding a cool solution by using memories.
I cut off the very bottom, censored, you know what words I mean, to avoid using nsfw preceded by #.
What the heck's up dude? Always nice to hear from you.
I'm about an hour east of where I was last time we got together. You around? Let's do linner. Brinner. Blunch. Ahbfucknwords!
I'm in Colorado at the moment getting slowly sucker punched to death by the universe. Otherwise I would totally meet up for linner-brinner-blunch. You gotta get your ass out here sometime. There are lots of deer just waiting to jump out in front of your car and kill themselves.
Oh dear, I just LoL'd at your misery.
You're supposed to be stone by now. I blame myself.
The devil told me to tell you that it's okay, don't blame yourself, maybe next time you'll do better.
Only maybe, eh. Well, I had a looksee into maybe and it may be that you are now stone but probably didn't see it. 😉
fyi, still working on it

As usual. I need to provide a really boring, vanilla reply as I am late and as usual, out-witted by you and Boomy! I wanted to do a 'Bring your daughter to the slaughter' comment, he said sadly!
So. I love the wooden trail, beautiful, naturally fitting into the environment but I wonder, can you cycle the trails as well as walk? In the UK, some footpaths can only be walked which is a shame.
Loved the steps.
Would have taken the cinder block home as I have a wall to build
What sort of deranged barmpot would go to a supermarket and only buy lawn feed and bog roll?
As for the 'normal' shopper;
Who ate all the pies is the shout...
Have a wonderful weekend, building more memories :-)
Who ate all the pies and wth do you mean, late? I didn't notice.
Funny. When I first started this, all I did is what I'm doing now but back then if I said I didn't notice, they got PISSED! = }
I appreciate you keeping an eye on me. I look forward to your visits and I know they're coming—never a bad time. I'm diggin the postcards from Thailand, sorry I don't get by more often. I can be a real asshole sometimes.
Ima ask one more time but if I don't get a response again then I know you're doing it intentionally—you ever been to the states where lawn fertilizer, halibut, motor oil, bleach, diapers, cough syrup, narcotics and diesel and fresh baked goods, school supplies, a/c filters and birth control and... are each sold under one roof?
I wonder how a cinder block got in the lake???

Whaddup! Much thanks for keeping an eye on me sir.
Hey, at least nothing was attached to it!
I think it might be the equality sign, you know, for pride month, not a cinder block.
I wonder what that woman was gonna do with that head of cabbage. Probably for her pet rabbit. It looks so out of place amidst all that processed non-food. I forget sometimes that a majority of people have no idea that the food they think is good for them is actually poison. Then I see shopping cards like that and I get sad. No wonder american produce is unripe and expensive. Nobody's buying it!!
Nice boring pictures. I especially liked that really boring one.
Equality? I spLeL that right? I've never heard of it.
I did that boring one just for you, I'm glad you didn't miss it.
Hello.
Ripe is getting weirder. The window for good is getting real narrow. Get some bananas to the house, they're too green to eat but, if they sit on the counter 20 minutes, now they're only good for baking.
<3
Green bananas are for putting into brown bags with rock hard peaches and avocados. They do some crazy hanky-panky in there for a couple days and then they all come out ripe-as-hell-hurry-up-and-eat-them-before-the-fruit-flies-start-spontaneously-generating.
And then the got dang fruit flies! What.is.the.secret?!
I once set a vinegar trap for fruit flies, it worked. But there was so many of the little things in the wine glass by the end of the week, each week, I just switched apartments.
Know any good tricks?
Ps - Thank you.
I wonder if they come from organic bananas. Or maybe there are invisible larvae hiding in nooks and crannies all over the insides of every home and as soon as it warms up and you bring home the fruit, they bust out their wings and invade.
I've set vinegar/wine/cider traps for them, too, with a little bit of soap in the water. Once there are enough dead fruit flies in the trap they go apeshit. Either they have some kind of invincibility complex or they're in a Kool-Aid cult.
Do I know any good tricks? No. But sometimes I watch them climbing all over the deathtrap. They're really cute, sweet little things. Makes me appreciate their existence. The appreciation doesn't make them go away, but it does make them less annoying when you can see their individual souls.
Pretty good post about nothing. A little bit of nothing here, a little bit there and the next thing you know, you have something.
As I was reading, a story came to my mind. It's not completely formulated yet, but it could be my 2nd short story.
Let me know if you put that short story out if you don't mind, tag me or something, I'd love to know where these couple of hardly noticeable images took you.
Hey what's up man? Welcome to month two on Hive. Glad you found us. What do you think so far? It's a cool spot, I've been here quite awhile. It takes some figuring out but, all in all, I avoid things that suck. = }
Pleasure crossing paths with you, I appreciate the follow. Let me know if I disappoint and I'll make me try harder.
My first short story I just posted a few hours ago. That 2nd one I started, but it's still formulating.
Of course, that one, I already saw that one. I mean if what I put together inspired you to create something.
