Editorial Opinion: White Space

I've given some thought after my last posting. Trying a little experiment.

More specifically, the refrains of using this blog environment tools for expression.

This will inspire me to clean-up this paper mess on my table.

As a senior,

 I get bombarded constantly with forms.

I haven't seen my drawing table in years now.

Over here, 

everything one was taught and trained to do 

has been altered to benefit whom?
The sheep? 

A Pod that needs a leader.

 No self expression or thinking.

Over here, are the creative minds,

expression in various formats.

The artist in you, creates the inward soul.

The political you, builds the all-inclusive others Pod.

If you do this, that Pod might not want to be there.

Now, there is conflict.

And here you are:

In the middle.

In the White Space.

 

Editorial Opinion: Knock, Knock. Who's There?

Here is how I started the morning. Review information I know:Left brain | Right brain

• Psychobiologist Roger Sperry discovered that human beings are of two minds.
• In the early 1960s, Sperry and colleagues
• In 1981 Nobel Prize in Psychology
• The left brain/ right brain myth

That little sprint down recall lane took less than 15 minutes. All is balanced. Color for down the middle path. What is it? Use purple? That would be the left brain logical balancing with the right brain color theorist but, maybe I prefer white light. The all inclusive of all color.

Blog post: Littlemouse Vision Quest

Littlemouse Vision Quest

I have been busy bringing together over twenty-years of website work back to life.

Some of my readers might remember me, since I began communication right here.

The new website that I am building is a challenge. No longer working off my Mac so, I can stop that mantra in my head. You know the one: Go left not right - click once not twice.

Creekside News Journal (CNj)

Some of you might be wondering, What is with the Word for the Day? 
I find myself surrounded by individuals that just seem to be lacking in the proper perspective on behavior, history and law. 

So, call it mentoring to a larger audience. It allows me the opportunity to utilize a formidable education for the greater good. 

Now, have a very good month. I have a lot of web work to put together. 

 

Blog Post: Change

Change

The simplest for today was to be painting a wall in the house that finally got patched but, NO been working for hours trying to match-up the correct color. Decided to continue my artistic license ☺and be creative. This is my bad since I used an analogous color scheme. This is when one says, "I can do this" and make it work.

Creating this post while I wait for the wrong color to dry and start over with the Kill2. Then of course there is the new creative position yet to complete. 

I caught bits and pieces of the Inaguration yesterday of President Joe Biden and VP Kamala Harris. 

(I was painting.) Grateful other networks and reporters captured all the moments so, I could put it all together. 

Now maybe, life can return to some level of normal on a Federal level. I'm with Stephen Colbert, survived the four year countdown and we survived for the moment.

There is the State level to reckon with and even the Local level.

Social Media and now COVID has really messed things up for professionals. I tuned into my new City's meeting, today by ZOOM while painting. When I write a news story, I'll come back and link it up here.

The short takeaway; I live in a place that now has two forms of government and the City one is going to be based on Google. No money, no lawyer, not even an office space. Like I said, hook it up later.

Creekside News Journal update

And then there is the return to the Paris Accord, WHO, stopping of the oil & gas permits, Climate Action and hopefully no more talk of some stupid wall. Never could figure that one out. 

Well time to return to my own wall. 

Peace and Joy to the World.

This is a global platform.

Blog Post: All I Really Want To Do ...

I wanted to awake early today and a little tufted titmouse made sure I did. I realized what bird was sounding the morning alarm to get up, "the bird feeder is empty!"

It was such a joy to be able to move around so early in the morning for a change.

The next tweet from the titmouse was to the bird neighborhood alarm, "Seed is in the feeder!"

It filled quickly with all the song birds or color and the surprise was how many golden finches were nearby. Such a colorful group of cardnials, chickadees, bluejays and the tittmouse.

The wrens, flickers and various woodpeckers arrive later.

What I really want to be able to do is use this darn smartphone to take photos to upload immediately but, as usual there are some tech issues when syncing the old with the new.

With this coronavirus pandemic, I am building a container garden; something I did not think I would do again at my age. Now lots of farmers have pitched in to supply some items that I needed. The winter barrels that they receive for their cattle make good containers for hillside gardening in rocky areas, such as mine.

Then there are the neighbors that brought me their empty drinking water bottles to use as a filler in the bottom of the tubs, a suggestion I received years ago from a woman further south of me that had used these containers before. Of course another neighbor found the bleach I needed for soaking those bottles and my neglected rainbarrels.

Received some paper-lined feed sacks and some type of plastic-woven feed sacks that I have soaked in bleach. To top it all off, some burlap feed sacks.

Everything moving right along; seed order from Urban Farmer arrived and then, not one but two Spring freezes in April. If anyone has any doubt about Climate Change then Wake-Up.

So, all I really wanted to do was harvest but, a very important issue ... Having a discussion with a raccoon. This is why the bird feeder was empty. I empty it every night so, maybe the raccoon will go away. All the plant starts in containers including the deck-rail baskets are drenched in cayenne pepper because I failed to have a heart to heart conversation with this raccoon. 👏 Working on it.

And it is time for me to journey on with my work-day.
Stay safe everyone and #SocialDistancing in order to #FlattenTheCurve the Coronavirus Pandemic is real, too.

Zazzle: GDRL calls Time Out!

Traditionally this would be Customer Service.

All Internet venues need those extra eyes that want to assist others with all the technicalities.

Think about it.

1. There are the techs that operate the code. 
2. The payment venues.
3. For products - the production house.
4. For writers - extra eyes on the words is appreciated.
5. Extra eyes on the functionality of the plug-ins, browsers and script.
6. For products - the delivery service

In the meantime - Here is another product:

Zazzle: Summon the Grandmothers

I have been working for days trying to get some stores back up and running.
Takes a huge amount of time and effort when I stay away from all the changes.

It will probably take more days to get my stores functioning the way I want them to function and then to visually look the way my mind's eye see's them but,
here is another glimpse at my efforts to bring my POD up to speed at Zazzle:
