Wellll….

It's been quite a while since I wrote a post, so I figured I'd catch you up. I've been dealing with health issues, money issues, insurance issues, and life. It's all really just life. I started attending ACoA back in July 2021, I guess. The meeting folded, then was started back up. Meanwhile, I found...

Recovering from Procedure and Ketosis

I had a colonoscopy on Thursday. The prep was bad enough, and I kept getting cold. The actual procedure seemed to go well. I still don't have pathology results, but that should be late next week. However, the recovery from the procedure has been harder than I remember from previous experiences. I wish they had...

MIA & Updates

I know I've been missing in action. I HATE using a blockbuilder, and WordPress updated everyone to that. AND it's mandatory. It sucks. Updates: I've given up on gardening. My knees and hips are complaining too much. I also hate the muggy heat we've been having around here. I can't breathe in it. The rain...

Finally!

Good Bread! I used up the last of my sourdough boles a couple days ago. I was ready for more bread, but honestly, it's hard for me to chew sourdough all the time. So, I decided to make a modified yeast bread recipe. I made 2 loaves, using a 60% hydration recipe. I did an...

Cooking in Isolation

I've been cooking a lot since I'm in isolation. Here are some of my creations: Spicy pork and beans, a Chicken stock made with vegetables (no salt), Chocolate cupcakes (from a mix), and Sourdough bread. (The photos randomize, so watch them). It took the simple bread and water starter about 10 days before it got...

More on Control Theories

Or Conspiracy Theories, if you like... I was referred to The Guardian, a UK newspaper and blog. The pages I was referred to included 22 healthcare experts and scientists in many disciplines, all decrying the current over-zealous response to SARS-CoV-19, which is the exact designation given to the Coronavirus or COVID-19. To make this easier,...

Ch-Ch-ch-changes!

I haven't posted anything for a while. I've been feeling life, instead. A lot has been going on. I'm not "just" the phoenix rising from the ashes, I'm also the caterpillar changing into a butterfly. It's been intense! It started when I was born and didn't want to be here. I've never wanted to be...

Our Red Shoes

A Little Astrology/Astronomy Everything I'm hearing and reading tells me that the Pluto (The Destroyer, Forced Growth) - Saturn (Time, Structures) - Sun (Our Ego, Self) - Mercury (The Mind, Communication, Mental Faculties) conjunction (together in the sky) is a biggie in Capricorn (Structures, Foundations). The Pluto-Saturn conjunction only happens every 35 years, and it's...

Thoughts and Progress

Meditation, astrology, food, creativity, and getting along in the world.

What If?

What if - The universe is one big fractal? Cells are fractals. Proteins are fractals. Plants are fractals. Galaxies are fractals. Brains (human) are fractals. What if we are living in a big fractal and trying to fit our straight lines and circles into it? Doesn't that mean we are trying to fit a circle...
