How do you manage screen time for yourself?
Managing screen time is a non-issue for me. I budget my time like money. Needs come first, then wants. The internet is a tool for my use, not my taskmaster.

Life with a TBI and now a stroke has made me look at my dull life through s different set of lenses. I have written 20+ posts and gotten like three “…

Time
Do you need time?
No. I don’t have to try to squeeze too much into a day anymore, something to be grateful for. When my children were little, I got up at 5:00 am and cooked a hot breakfast while I dressed for work. I usually folded a load of clothes and put another in the washer. My daughter always wanted grits and eggs so that involved some cooking.
At 5:00, I handed off to Bud. He got the kids up, made sure they were dressed in clothes we’d put out the night before, and on the bus..
Upon arriving home, I put clothes in the dryer and another in the washer, then started dinner while Bud and I tag-teamed on homework, dinner, and baths. We usually shared family time till bedtime while I entertained myself loading the dishwasher or folding a load of clothes.
By 9:00, we were usually grateful to settle down to a cup of tea or coffee and a little evening relaxation. Of course, I put on a load of laundry on the way to bed.
No one knows what they are signing on for when starting a family. I am grateful for my family then and now. Time is relative.
Election
We have the responsibility to vote November 5. Please take your responsibility of voting very seriously. Think hard about the character and abilities of the person who will be charged with the responsibility of leading our country. They should look at the best interests of everyone, not just a privileged portion.
Lovely Trip
I have to catch up with all my WordPress friends. We visited Mountain View, Arkansas for a few days. We stayed at a rustic cabin on the shores of Syllamore Creek.
We did absolutely no touristy things, only leaving the cabin once to buy groceries. We spent one afternoon watching buzzards glide on the updrafts from the creek up the cliff. Their ability to glide indefinitely was something to see. They seemed to exert no energy. They were still circling when the heavy rain ran us from our rockers on the back porch. The rain pounding on the tin cabin roof was relaxing.
Note the mansion on the bluff above the creek. Though we were at the cabin three nights, they never invited us up for coffee.

Life
What will your life be like in three years?
Who knows? I hope it continues the way it is. In the seventh decade as in the first, there could be lots of changes. I’ll hope for the best and deal with hope for the best.

Appreciation
Invent a holiday! Explain how and why everyone should celebrate.
Appreciation Day would be a good idea. We all interact with people every day that really help us: store associates, customer service people, mail carriers. The list is endless.
