Nah, just tortured. You can skip the genius part, lol. Although my head IS filled with a lot of stuff. Now I can’t get the Winnie the Pooh song out of my head – “all stuffed with fluff.” Yeah, that would be MY head.

 You are smart. Brilliant in fact. And while it’s a blessing, it’s also a curse. Your head is filled with everything – grand ideas, insufferable worries, and a good deal of angst. |
Presently, I am trying to make friends outside of Facebook while applying the same principles.
Therefore every day, I go to the street and tell a passerby what I have eaten, how I feel, what I have done the night before and what I will do after. I give them pictures of my wife, my grandkids, and me gardening and spending time in my pool. I also listen to their conversations and tell them I love them.
And it works: I already have three people following me: 2 police officers and a psychiatrist!

Ha! Yeah, that pretty much describes FaceBook! LOL
Have an awesome weekend!
LOVE that my writerly husband is writing again. Here he explains what’s been happening for him. :)
Some of you know – because you follow my personal blog – that I’ve started a new book as of April 17, 2015.
What those only following this blog won’t know, is I’ve done it using a new (to me) method of writing which was aptly described by author Dean Wesley Smith as “Writing into the Dark.”
Mr. Smith blogged about the process over the course of six or seven weeks, and I must say, I followed with great interest. I’d been migrating through a lot of different “techniques” and “methods” for writing, most of which focused on planning.
I discovered outlining and planning according to a four-part story structure map back in 2009. I’ve blogged extensively about it. Raved about it. Ranted about it. Made mockery of any writer unwilling to try it. And then I stopped being able to write because of it.
It’s a long story, but…

Well, things are starting to get a little peaked, but are still looking pretty good. We’re about to settle into some serious heat this week, so I’ll have to stay on my toes as far as watering goes. And the deadheading, too! Can’t forget that!
I couldn’t decide which pot of Snapdragons I liked best, so I picked them both! Really, it’s almost like one super long pot, the way I have them arranged on the patio. I love the rainbow of colors – a little bit of everything! Except blue, hmm. And purple. Yes, the world needs blue and purple Snapdragons, I think. What about you?
These are the shorter variety of Snapdragons, but there is also one that’s really tall, about 2-3 feet. They’re very spikey looking and I love them too, but our garden center didn’t have any this year. My daughter likes to watch the bees pop into the Snapdragon flowers because the petals form like a cup around the bee and snap closed, and then the bee squeezes out once it’s gotten all the pollen it can carry. They have sort of the face of an Iris, but the snap of a gentle, non-lethal, Venus Fly Trap. See? Closed. Open!
How’s your favorite hobby going this week?
Well huh. Looks like they pegged me on this one.

 You are a very private person. You need your alone time to introspect and recharge.You don’t mind being around others, but you prefer to spend the bulk of your time by yourself. You are a slow and critical thinker. You need to mull things over for a long time. |
