1. Here is a challenge for you. Every morning for 7 or more days, “say this out loud to see how it feels: “I know exactly what I want. I know exactly what I don’t want. I know exactly what I kind of want but I won’t waste my time on it because it sidetracks me from working on what I really want.” ~ Rob Brezsny
2. Another man I know died from Covid.
3. Starting with dried chickpeas changes my entire hummus plan. Starting with dry beans is so much better and makes a smoother hummus. I won’t need to purchase a food processor.

The store I randomly check for Mardi Gras Bock had some. It is only available during Mardi Gras season and a little after. Some years this store has none. I still use my grandfather’s pliers. He wrapped the tape on the handles over 50 years ago. It was an unexpected and unfortunate event. That was followed by a fun afternoon at the barn.
I appreciate each of you. Thank you for your visits, likes, and comments. Stay safe and warm out there in the CCE.

The title of my project is, My Hipstamatic Life. I wish I could come up with something more witty.
Most the details of my project are outlined in the blog post, My Hipstamatic Life. My hashtag is #nomadhipsta .
I begin this project the day before moving to Atmore Alabama so recording that move will be my first topic.
I hope the first month of 2021 was excellent for you and those you love. I appreciate each of you. Your visits, likes, and comments inspire me. May love and kindness surround you. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. Vaxx Now

I’m doing a little planning for #the100dayproject. I need to post the title of the project on January 31. The start day is close. I need to get busy with ideas.
1. During the 100 days there will be three or more travel days, one oil change, a Safari park, a cardiologist appointment, and I’ll be living away from WHQ for a few days. Those are the things I know about.
2. Currently I intend to do all the photography and video work for the project with an iPhone. The photos will be taken with Hipstamatic X and edited with Snapseed. Videos will recorded with the 8mm app and edited with the Splice app. All this is subject to change at any time.
I’m debating which 8mm filter goes best the the toy camera filter in Hipstamatic X. Taken with the toy camera filter
3. The concept is to record my everyday life in words, pictures, and video.
4. I need to come up with a unique hash tag too.

6. Suggestions are welcome.

1, I broke a tooth. The dentist appointment is at 2 pm. I suppose I should take a shower.
2. Like every night, I left my shoes outside by the door. When I went out, one shoe was gone. In the dim light, before sunrise, I looked around. I spotted a shoe like shape on the next parking pad. I walked over and it was my shoe. A few bite marks, but it was usable. The bites give it character.
This is the culprit!The chew toy
3. The trip to the dentist : I had 3 broken teeth. It was the three breaks. Papa break, the mama break and the baby chip. An hour and a half and $135 later all were repaired successfully. I was out the door. I was only aware of mama break. The other two were surprises.
I think I’ve discarded my irrational fear of dentistry after only 60 years of living with that fear. Becoming nobody and practicing thinking new thoughts is paying off.

1. The combination of Covid and the current civil unrest has hindered my lifestyle, leaving me a bit adrift in the ocean of my life. I’m ungrounded and have self work to do. My life was nomadic.
2. If I don’t move he won’t see me. Taken with an iPhone 11 Pro Max using Hipstamatic.
3. It’s been an entertaining few days doing “out of my routine” things and thinking new thoughts.

I’m trying curbside pickup at the local grocery store. I called yesterday to get the scoop on how small town USA curbside pickup works. I’m calling in my order, they will do the best they can, and they will call me back with the total.
