Being Absent

Hey All!

It seems that with the holidays approaching, I become more disconnected from all kinds of worlds...Social media included.

I don't really know why I get this way, but I do.  The holidays are a depressing time for me.  I have loved ones that need to be taken care of, or I have fake people trying to start a fight with me due to their own insecurities.  In the meantime, I'm trying to make jewelry for the Etsy thing.

I've made a few bracelets so far, but I'm noticing trying to make certain bracelets with certain beads isn't working out well for me.  I don't know why I'm having such a hard time with it, but I am.

So today, I made a necklace...Though I'm not planning on selling it.  I am going to give it to my grandma.  I will have to post pics soon.

Ah, other than the writing prompts in the group I'm in, and other than my journal I hand write in, I haven't been putting myself out there in cyber world lately.

I guess getting accused of saying something about someone when it could be anyone that I'm referring to--even characters in a book or short-story I'm writing about--I guess it can take all of your energy.

Of course, I won that argument, but still...It bothers me knowing there are such evils out there in the world.  It bothers me knowing that even as adults, heading towards middle age, there are bullies out in this world.  I think some forget that we're no longer in junior high school anymore.

I'd better shut up now before they read this and assume I, yet again, said something bad about them...

No, this is a story about one of my characters, and she has a friend that is so jealous, she will do whatever it takes to make the main character unhappy.  But all does work out in the end...

Another mindless rambling from me yet again....

Until next time...

Clouds

Found a few interesting things with this post.







Hey Everyone!!!


I have to make this quick as I may or may not be heading over to the east coast of Florida and will only be available through the phone/tablet I own.  Blogging is something that can be done on the phone, but it never looks good.  Proofreading and editing are a pain in the neck.  Okay, I'm done chatting it up like this.

So I went and Googled some Vincent Price quotes....The best ones I found was through IMDB (Click here)

I found this quote:


It just speaks to me, though a lot of them spoke to me...I'm sure this quote is used a lot. LOL.

"A man who limits his interests limits his life."

~~Vincent Price...

It's interesting.  I'm always all about learning new things or else I would not have joined Blogophilia all those years ago.  I like being challenged, and I love learning new things...

Like what in the world is a zoopraxiscope?






Well, when I Googled it, it was one of the earliest forms of movie projectors....You know how like you get a book and put a picture in the corner of the page, then when you flip the pages, you see animation come to life????  I know, it's hard to imagine that when we have phones and computers and such.  I still use pen and paper...I still journal the old-fashioned way.

By the way of the clouds today, I think this might not be a great day to go to the east coast.  I'm still not sure yet.  I drive in any kind of weather down here.  Rain...Wind...Clouds...You name it...

Well...TTYL.
