I shot the video with an iPhone and the 8 mm app. The editing was done using the Splice app. Nova Rain added the voiceover.
2. All this ice-0-lation, self reflection and meditation is bearing fruit. I flipped out some in the last few days. Melancholy! Confusion! At loose ends. Adrift. Then boom. With the help of a friend I peeled off a huge, tough, nasty layer from my onion. “The unbearable lightness of being”. Growth is difficult. But I am better now. Closer to nobody.
3. I’ve been trying to get my oil and filters changed since January 2020. I’ve been turned away once. SpeedCo didn’t have the oil filter. That is just not true. There was some other reason. Beats me. I may have found a good local place. Maybe during July WHQ will be well lubricated once again.
Thanks 😊 so much for coming by and interacting. You brighten my day and bring joy to my heart. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. I love you.

1. I really enjoy a tin of sardines with a few crackers. However, if I pulled this one open I would be inclined to run away screaming. Looks like they have had enough.

2. Magna tiles are great fun. It’s so easy to build things with these unusual magnets.

3. I am really enjoying playing Scrabble. It provides an additional way for me to interact with others and meet new people.
4. Delicious U-Pick strawberries from Sugar Hill Farm in Verbena AL. I also got some farm fresh tender yellow zucchini and squash, and a huge head of broccoli. Total was $16. I’m a happy camper.
6. I like the sentiment. It’s time, past time, to rebel against the oligarchy in America. I do not know the source of this image. If you do, let me know and I’ll give appropriate credit to the artist.
I appreciate you dropping by. I love you. Stay virus free, safe and well.

Archangel Michael says that fear is the only thing interfering with your happiness and plans. He wants to show you how to release any worry or dread so you can feel safe and secure. This card indicates that you’re ready to let go of control issues and trust that everything ultimately works out for the best.
Possible Meanings of This Card: You’re going in the right direction • You deserve all that is good (just as we all do!) • Allow yourself to receive love, support, and abundance • You are loveable
Prayer: Archangel Michael, please help me feel safe and deserving of your guidance. Thank you for clearing me of heavy, toxic, or ego-based thoughts or feelings.
My take away? I must continue to abandon the illusion of control and the fear that follows it.
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God….” ~ Romans 8:28
I used the Google Arts and Culture app to morph this photo into Keith Haring’s style.
Day 43
I am weary of Covid’s trash. I am weary of Covid in general. However, I am adapting to my new Covid Common Era life and it’s not so bad.
Day 44
Here I am in Paradise during the CCE and this holly plant thinks it is fall. Or maybe it is in harmony with the newly sick since Alabama has opened up again.
Day 45
The view out my bedroom window.
Day 46
I’m not sure what this plant is doing. Every time I bury its roots it climbs back out.
Day 47Day 48 The neighbors Day 49 The big heron wasn’t around. This was his fill-in.

While I’ve been enjoying my ice-o-lation in Paradise I have been into photographing bottle caps.
The last one in this series. I drank this Shiner Bock and posed the cap on an old wooden picnic table.
Except for the Shiner Bock, these caps were all on the ground in Paradise. I saw them and photographed them on my morning walks. The Shiner Bock cap was disposed of appropriately.
Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving a comment.

May 23 A 4 mile walk Worked on my art projects Drummed and practiced ukulele Meditation for a few hours Made veggie food Hung out with my friend Journaled Thought different thoughts as much as possible.
May 24 began with a 2 mile hike. At a distance I had a conversation with a fellow hiker. There was a lot of yelling. hahahaha She was walking a beautiful white dog. After I returned to WHQ, I enjoyed a cup of iced coffee and a mandarin for breakfast, some journaling, and a life threatening trip to the Beeswax convenience store and grill. No masked shoppers other than me. Most people abided by the social distancing guidelines. The floor of the entire store was marked off in 6’ intervals. Sad as it is, I risked my life for a beer run.
May 25 Memorial Day I started the day with coffee and a banana at 5 am. Next was a 3 mile hike down by the lake. The sunrise was lovely this morning.
Lay Lake
I encountered this turtle. I apologized for interrupting it’s journey. I like to believe that crossing paths with a turtle is a positive omen bringing happiness.
As I continued I came upon a Killdeer nest. I am amazed at them. It surprises me that the eggs survive.
Lunch was a far cry from the standard Memorial Day BBQ with family and friends. Cabbage soup and a beer for me today. I do miss my mom’s pound cake on occasions like this. Feeling kind of alone on this holiday. It’s because I pick it.
The dream: I dreamed I was driving and I knew something wasn’t quite right. The passenger pointed it out too. Seems the car had started slowing rising into the air. We drifted near the wall of a Walmart store and used the bricks to pull the car back down. Then we got out. Oddly adults didn’t float but the one child in the car began to drift away.

Scene 1: I pulled the 5 of Water, Clinging to the Past, from the Osho Tarot deck. Such a great card for living in the Covid Common Era. The pre-Covid past exits only in our minds. The post-Covid future exists only in our minds. The present flits by into the past. If we stay in our minds, we will miss our lives.
Scene 2: To embrace both the sorrow and joy is difficult in these times of upheaval. As warriors we feel the pain while we continue to shine the light.
QOTD: “Hold the sadness and pain of samsara in your heart and at the same time the power and vision of the Great Eastern Sun. Then the warrior can make a proper cup tea.” -Chogyam Trungpa
Scene 3: An RV washing man came by. We struck a deal. He is washing my RV and my jeep for $225. This includes the awnings. I’m happy. 🕺🏽 WHQ is clean.
You bring joy to my heart. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. I love you.
