    Friday, May 27th 2022 *** It’s 4:20 a.m. exactly. Why am I up? I’m up because I went to bed really early. I did a lot yesterday. I don’t think I did too much but I did a lot and by the end of the day I was done. Maybe it was those fried bread… Continue reading

    Thursday, May 26th 2022 It’s 9:00 a.m., kind of a late start for me. I had a few ups and downs during the night and ended up sleeping through the morning. I feel okay. Actually I feel rather excellent, if perhaps a bit fat. Dinner last night was large. Cream of field greens is a… Continue reading

    Wednesday, May 25th 2022 It’s 5:00 a.m. and I’m just checking in here to say that this morning is greeting me with one of the most beautiful orange and blue skies. You know what these skies look like in the evening. It comes when you have a light rolling cloud cover that mixes with a… Continue reading

    Tuesday, May 24th 2022 That was outstanding. I’m talking about breakfast. Simply, outstanding. The star of the show could be described as simple pancakes. Well, maybe not exactly simple pancakes but they were pancakes, they were simple enough, they were extremely tasty, a bit savory rather than sweet, and I think they packed a reasonable… Continue reading

    Monday, May 23rd 2022 Okay, I know what time it is and I know you’re just about ready to go to work or you are on your way. You are like a rock. However, this is one of those Mondays where all I’m doing is watching the clock tick. Enjoy your day in the office… Continue reading

    Sunday, May 22nd, 2022. Week number 20 Good morning. It’s a little after 3:00 in the morning and I guess I’m done sleeping. Yesterday was a fine day off except for the mosquitoes. I wouldn’t say that I was tortured by them but there were a few aggravating moments where I just wanted to stop… Continue reading

    Friday, May 20th 2022 I am sitting in my ex-partner’s kitchen eating peanuts, veggies, black bread and drinking some Ivan Chai tea. Salty roasted peanuts are becoming an addiction for me. I know they are not very healthy for me. I don’t have a peanut allergy but they are very fatty and salty and when… Continue reading

    Thursday, May 19th 2022 It’s 6:45 and I’m in the kitchen letting the gas burn a little bit. It’s cold. I haven’t made a fire in a while and I stopped drinking coffee. I guess I could make a cup of tea or something like that. I went to bed very early last night. I… Continue reading

    Tuesday, May 17th 2022 It’s 3:30 a.m. and I’m not complaining about being awake. I went to bed early and it’s not unusual that I only need this many hours of sleep. I checked in with the war and I found that Mariupol has fallen to the russians. The words in the news articles are… Continue reading

    Monday, May 16th 2022 It’s 3:20 in the morning. We don’t really have white nights here. I am a little bit too far south for that. We also don’t get the Aurora Borealis. We used to get pickles but now there’s climate change so I’m not sure. But it seems as though it never really… Continue reading
