2022 Happy To Be Here

Predicting the future is not my superpower. I'm scheduled to work five days for 50 hours this week and slightly less next week. So expect my blogs to be short on those days.

I like the splashes of purple that pop up from them amid the yellows, reds, greens, and oranges of autumn. Having to work less next week required me asking to have next Saturday off. I'm happy I got it off with no problems. There is an event that day, in Barony, that I need to be at and awake. Until the leaves have fallen, the bright autumn colors will continue to bring me happiness. ☮ Currently reading: Pocketful of Miracles: Prayer, Meditations, and Affirmations to Nurture Your Spirit Every Day of the Year , Joan Borysenko.

It is a computer programming language that I know little about. I'm thankful that Hoopla had a small ebook I could borrow through my library to read and start learning. Every little bit will help, or I'll find that this isn't for me. Either way is a good learning process. Today is the last day of summer. I'm thankful that autumn is on the way, though I'm not looking forward to winter this year, maybe that will change. I took some pictures of s...
