Decided to do one last quasi-hike/walk up the mountain this past Saturday {10/19}, which included a closed side street that was recently shorn of vegetation by Eversource so that they could safely access the power lines. Was able to take almost a half dozen pictures of a seldom seen part of the mountain, including this nifty fall foliage scene crackling with sunlight.
This post is my semi-monthly to monthly two-fer, in which you get random thoughts here and pictures over at that resurrected picture blog of mine, Pictures For Smarties!
Random thoughts
Had a brief writing related reality check when I suddenly had a full barrel of fish, a rod and reel and no fish caught. In other words, no ideas on what to write for a blog post.
I mean, I could give a writing update, but frankly, how many times can I say, "I'm in the home stretch and I have just a few more chapters to go!", before it starts sounding painfully redundant?
"I'm in the home stretch and I have just a few more chapters to go!"
But, as they say, inspiration comes from the oddest of places, which in today's skewered world is Face-planting my Book. A FB friend of mine made a comment about Mondays being a drag, which triggered a tangent based on that troublesome day of the week. Fortunately enough for everyone else, I had enough presence of mind not to continue because I still don't quite know how they take my quirky sense of humor. So keep your eyes peeled for a very odd post about that troublesome day of the week, done in the form of...well, I'll let you both be surprised and be the judge.
So, this post is short on brevity and short on word salad. Have an enjoyable Monday, because the world indeed does revolve around you. Oh and in case you're below the age of say 50 and haven't watched the golden years of 70's television, part of my blog title refers to this nifty song.

Wish we had a mountain like that to hike near me.
ReplyDeleteIt's basically been my go-to mountain for hiking, although I strictly keep to my hometown part of the mountain, as it stretches to two other nearby towns. I will give the state DEEP credit for staying on top of the storm damage, as they will cut some of the larger trees blocking some of the trails.
DeleteWhere oh where, Are you Tonight.
ReplyDeleteWhy did you leave me here all alone?
I searched the world over and I thought I found true love,
But you met another ,
and Phtttt! You was gone!
Yes, I have no time to read here on Monday. Part of the problem with it. Truck day at work. Make food, clean the shelves and walk in freezer, while you make food orders in no particular order. So tuckered out after that, I sit at home and need a nap, but must give kitties treats to make sure they are okay and not disappeared.
I have my notebooks in reach lately, but haven't added in to the ideas in awhile. Brain is fizzled!
Not long to go at work, such as the case yesterday means; the last half hour will have you running in circles out of breath, every single thing being intertupted as you try to get it done before out time. So it doesn't help at all, just makes you find out more than you want to left to go!

Hee-Haw still remains one of my very guilty pleasures in life.
DeleteYou, young lady, deserve a very long paid vacation sans the Internet to recoup, recharge and reenergize.
