In reply to FACEBOOK, AN EXPERIENCE

I can't believe I missed half of the thread. See you are not the only one who is a day late and a dollar short.

I don't do much either. I go to the grocery store, Walmart and Goodwill. I get to put gas in my car and play taxi driver. Then once a week I go to the food bank that is 2 different churches every other week accept when the dates fall on a 5 week month. I have the kids but they are kids and work. I have my down days but that just might be I am tired sometimes. My neighborhood is full of sadness so I keep things just friendly and don't visit with them. It is just better that way.

This computer is my window on the world. I am not much of a writer but I do string some words together. I can lose myself in all the things I can read and see on the internet I can escape from the harshness of reality. I find the whole thing just amazing. I find the cell phone amazing. I follow a group a geologist and scientist that talk about volcanoes and earthquakes. I read climate papers that tie in with weather and geology. I also read about history and other science related things. I keep my mind busy thinking of stuff that I read about then I don't dwell on things I can't change. I get just as thrilled as you do when I get a comment or a reply on something I wrote. If I get more then 25 people to read a recipe here I feel like Martha Steward.

So there isn't any exciting things to write about, just day to day stuff. I think of something once in a while that might be worthwhile to write about. I have my worries and problems that crop up all the time. There is plenty of stress but I keep that where it belongs and not in blogs if I can help it because this is where I go to escape and recharge myself.

I hope you find your self soon. I don't want to have to send you a couple of shovel fulls of crap when it hits my fan just to perk you up.

I hope things start looking

I hope things start looking up for you, Arthur. Depression is no fun. I've experienced it a few times over the years, once badly enough to require medication.

I don't do a lot of the things available on Facebook - poking is one of them. And I don't play the games. I tend to be a bit of a hermit these days, spending nearly all my time either with the kids or at home. Facebook makes me feel like I'm out in the world, without having to actually be there! Heeheehee!

A poem I just wrote for my

A poem I just wrote for my "lost" friend ...

As long as we are where we are,
how can we be lost?

If we do not recognize where we are standing,
it is not because our bearing has been misplaced,
we are simply exploring some new aspect of the community,
that lies within the familiar.

Even in our most commonly known places,
we can, and will, find something new to explore,
and we can get so wrapped up in the examining
and the experiencing of the joy of discovery, that
we forget the past for a while, and our bearings, and
find happiness in the present moment.

So we are not lost, just experiencing new stuff,
and while the territory may seem, in retrospect, recognizable,
our creative perceptions can always find the new in the familiar
and we must allow ourselves to luxuriate in pretending we are lost.

Lost is merely living in a house you have not purchased yet.
Lost is a way of challenging ourselves to appreciate that with which we are unfamiliar.
Lost is a journey of discovery that always ends up with us finding we have been home all along.

We are not lost, we are god-damn explorers.

In reply to Frankly, I am having problems

Well, thank you very much! See there? The coveted Dayly awards are honors only you can give, and you are why they mean so much. You'll figure out your problems with software and such, you always do.

Oh, and I'm happy that you've been calling me Missy for so many years - wasn't it back in '08?

Frankly, I am having problems

Richard Day — Tue, 16 Jun 2015 05:27:55 +0000

In reply to Dick, if you're not

Frankly, I am having problems doing anything. hahahah

However I shall give Missy my Dayly Line of the Day Award for this here Dagblog Site, given to all of her from all of me!

I mean the overabundance of abundance....

Hell, it would take me decades to find a line like this.

hahahahahah

Oh, and this might sound trite, but Mr. Smith calls you Missy.

And that makes me happy.

Dick, if you're not

In reply to I have been depressed lately

Dick, if you're not comfortable with Facebook, don't use it. Unless you enjoy the overabundance of abundance it's like being at a party just because you didn't want to hurt a friend's feelings. On the other hand, of course, if you do like it then just be patient with the whole thing - it's all in your control either way.

Personally, I'm too lazy to bother with it and far too uninterested in myself to inflict me on others. Or maybe I'd rather not "share" .... I'll just keep annoying folks around here for awhile.

I keep having all these

In reply to I think poking was something

I keep having all these problems with my software.

I paid 75 bucks in Feb? for Word 365 and it does not work.

I have little to share, I mean I go to the groceries and the tobacco store and I mop my floors...

hahahah

I am lost as ever.

Thank you for sharing; no matter how trivial this response seems.

I cannot write on anything.

I just spent an hour on the phone with microsoft and they want a hundred bucks or more 'to fix the problem'. They tell me that it is not the problem with HP.

I will be okay.

I am just figuring out how to write.

Sorry to whine, I just cannot figure this out.

Anyway, I am too old to poke.

hahahahah

Oh, and I am happy you are getting some comments.

I shall survive.

I think poking was something

In reply to I have been depressed lately

I think poking was something people did more in the first few years of Facebook when people were more reserved at revealing themselves to their Facebook friends and needed to be encouraged to share more with a poke from a friend who wanted to hear more from them. This option quickly became completely un-necessary as it turned out that, once acclimated to Facebook most people could not STOP sharing every moment of their lives. It's like one them vestigial organs, once it had a purpose, but now it has none.. hahahaha
