Stupid Covid hits close

January 29, 2022
My  son-in-law has been hit with Covid. They're all double vaccinated, so he's not in the hospital, but he's sick. My daughter and the boys (ages 11 and 13), are not yet showing symptoms and will be tested in the near future. In the meantime, they're all self-isolating. My daughter is a cashier a...

    Ya know, I wasn't even sure OD was still alive. Imagine my surprise to discover my diary still here. Sadly, downloading the diary and notes is no longer a thing easily done, so I've been copying and pasting into a document file to preserve my stories, memories and the notes. Back in the day, OD&h...

    I just zipped in here to download the diary so I don't lose it all. There's parts either in here or in Torin's that I want to look at, and I imagine finding the reference is going to be challenging at best. It all ties in to the fact that I have a client with…

    Listening to Weird Al now on Grooveshark, adding in John Lennon, Harry Secombe, Blue Oyster Cult--you name it. I have very eclectic music tastes, can you tell? My daughter's friend introduced me to Grooveshark and I love it. It's da bomb. I'm also working on my first (and possibly only, at least ...

    I've had a decent work day today, and a cheque came in from Worker's Compensation for work I did in January and May. That was nice to get. Anyway, on with the story. *** Liam and Eva collected their luggage, made their way through customs and stepped out into the Sydney airport. A tall, broad-sho...

    I do hope you're keeping up with Torin's diary and the entries for the 24/7 challenge that I've been doing. If you haven't, then you should go here and check out the daily efforts. I've been writing poetry and flash fiction and microfiction. I've also been brave and sent out two of the piece...

    The link to my blog with the daily efforts for 24/7. The goal is to write a short piece every day for the first 24 days of August and then spend the last seven days revising a few pieces. I sent the 98 word horror story out into the world, and if it sells, I'll…

    First a link to today's 24/7 effort: Rain Life rolls on. Money is still of some concern, but I'm confident it'll all work itself out without killing me, so it's all good. I sent out another resume last night to another clinic in the city, in case place #1 doesn't work out. It's good to…

    Do stop over at Torin's diary and check out the efforts there for the 24/7 writing month. I'm pretty much focusing on the here and now instead of worrying about whether or not I'll get the job in the city. I'm confident that SOMETHING nifty is in the works; a change whose time is rapidly com...

    And now it's a matter of waiting for the manager to come back from his week off so we can talk again and see if we can reach an agreement. There's nothing else I can do on that front, so I'm trying to put it out of my mind and just focus on life in…
