Perhaps a throwback to Carole’s 10 on Tuesday with ten random thoughts courtesy from my brain!
- This head cold has totally derailed my night time reading – I have not even tried to read a single word. However, I feel I have turned a corner and perhaps tonight will be the night that before bed reading resumes… I have my fingers crossed.
- I made great strides on my catch-up list yesterday, which means my list for today is only semi-daunting! At this rate, my Wednesday list should be back to normal.
- I am almost finished listening to Orwell’s 1984 and wow. Just wow.
- This website has brought new clarity and understanding to my thought process.
- My forsythias are opening, the red-winged blackbirds have returned, and there is joy in my heart that the weather was mild again this morning.
- Amazon Prime Exercise Videos have not been a rousing success – I am blaming this waning but damned cold.
- However, Lenten meditations are – and have even offered a few moments respite from thinking about my foggy head.
- I jumped on the Helical Stripe Bandwagon last week – Birthday Socks have begun. A word about Helical Stripes – WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE???? Yes, they are that good.
- My concern level for the number of projects in the works is growing – there are way more of them than there are of me!
- Tomorrow is International Women’s Strike Day…I love this statement: “Some of us are striking, marching, rallying, and boycotting. Some of us wish we could. Everyone, everywhere can join the PUSSYHAT GLOBAL VIRTUAL MARCH!” YES!!! You can participate virtually! Really. It’s a wear, declare, and share kind of day – so, put some red on and your pussyhat, make a little sign about where you are from or what you are for, and take a selfie!! Share it on your social media and tag it #pussyhatglobal All the details are on Pussyhat Project.
There you have my Tuesday, Gentle Reader. Oh, and dust off your Pussyhat’s for tomorrow!
I am next on the Overdrive waiting list at two different libraries for 1984 – so tantalizingly close! Reading at night is always dangerous for me; my eyes always seem to fall closed. Hope you feel much better very soon!
I really wish I could skip work tomorrow, but it’s just not feasible. So I’m going to wear red in solidarity, and if it’s cool enough in the morning, I’ll wear my pussyhat!
Hi! In no particular order, some responses:
10. My hat is out and waiting…now to find the red…not a spring staple in my closet, hmmm!
1. Hoping that your cold is waning…feelin’ punk ain’t no fun!
4.Thx for the link to the “all sides” website…
5.Out shortly to see if I can find forsythia…my fave. spring sighting – goes back to my childhood (in Michigan!) a zillion years ago…Love the Waterlogue!
I too need a few thoughts for today’s blog post: Thx for Ten on Tuesday! Totally hits the spot.
Feel better!
Cheers~
We have yellow crocus by the bunches in full bloom, but, as yet, no forsythia. It’s coming. If I wasn’t stuck in stripy sock mode I would be on the Helical Stripe Bandwagon, too. I will be soon!
Spring is coming but it’s grey and blah here today. I hope your cold is better soon. Thanks for the idea of wearing red tomorrow in solidarity. I have to work but I know I can rock some red LipSense!
Hope you’re feeling better – the cold I brought back from Wisconsin lasted almost two weeks. I’m looking forward to seeing all the red and pink today – love the graphic you shared!
I’m thinking the helical stripe thing might be just the ticket to help me with the lack-of-mojo thing. Hope you’re feeling better. XO
I hope you feel better soon. Maybe it’s allergies mixed with a cold… Anyways, fingers crossed and happy international women’s day!
LOVING HELICAL STRIPES!!
