Congratulations! You placed First in [Link To Item #2204562] ! Excellent work. *^*Smile*^*](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/group-Share_Your_Faith-1929619_15.gif) Share Your Faith 12 januar  12 มกราคมMy head is fuzzy. Too much stress. I need to lay down for a bit. Pan did come home but left this morning for work. It's the 'new normal'. I tried and failed regarding buying my tickets out of here. I'll be stressed until that's resolved. To Neva: "I try to walk every day. Sometimes I just go to the market like yesterday; but we also have a 'city pond' where people go after sunset. There are places to work out, places to eat, places to dance or sit. I don't wear sunscreen. I wear a hat and a long-sleeve shirt between 10-16 when the sun is beating down on us in Hot Season. Now... it's winter, so not quite as necessary for a short walk. Working in the fields though... I had ticks, chiggers and poison ivy in Oklahoma... no joke! When I'm back in Montana I'll need to figure out an exercise routine. Walking would be great but I don't think going out alone on the snow/ice would be wise. I need a walking buddy!"  เที่ยง. 82 degrees. AQ43 Clouds lifting. bogs. Neva/Beholden/Eric. blog. "3600 views after 18+ years..." ฟอรั่ม.

Thank you for participating in Double Badge December 2023 [Link To Item #mbm] !](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Number_1_Fan.gif) Number 1 Fan To Bobbie on FB: "My father's father was born in 1880. He was 72 the year I was born. I am 71 now. I don't remember him (he met me but I have few childhood memories) but my great uncle Eddy was born in 1874 in Sweden. When they say "unto the seventh generation" they are not jesting. Gen Z is not an example of "spontaneous generation". They are built upon the good and bad judgments of their forefathers. In the past that would be their linear heritage or the village they grew up in. Nowadays they draw from the Global Village and K-Pop can be as influential as European or American music. 1970 may as well be as ancient as the Civil War. 1917 = WW1 in White-Eurocentric circles. 1918 = pandemic (important in my mother's family). But Jim Crow was in force and Native Americans didn't dare step off the Reservation. Different histories, some forgotten, some still healing from the scars." 11 januar  11 มกราคม chat.

Didn't bother until almost midnight and didn't shave.To NormaJean: "I edited my un-posted "Dear Me" letter. NO resolutions, just an inner dialogue between my suggestions and my reluctance to follow them. Very real... in some ways. I try to go for a walk every day. I keep track of this in Porthole. The problem arises when I'm back in Montana. A long walk on a bone-cold day? Not to forget those 42 steps going down... and then back up. I guess I could skip a couple going up if I'm careful. I'm more concerned about falling down them. Even Missoula will be chilled. -12 tomorrow; never going above 0 on Saturday. I hope my place will be okay. There's nothing I can do from here. I made sure my windows were shut. The winds will be coming down Hellgate Canyon from the north-east, but my windows face south. And winds under 9 mph. ![Merit Badge in Meet That Deadline!

"I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by." by Douglas Adams](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Meet_That_Deadline=33.gif) Meet That Deadline! 10 januar   10 มกราคม obsv. passing train, jet roar, dove coo; bouncing ball; purple orchids starting. bogs.

Thai. Chpt. 2The simple yet easily overlooked "garbage can" may be too common... kinda like sending dandelions in May to someone in Michigan. They'll just send a gazillion back. In Thailand "durian" will do. It's a beloved, tasty and, sometimes expensive, fruit but few people like the odor and hotels and means of transport ban it. "burning fields" may be too general or uncommon. The sugarcane and corn fields put soot in the air and it can become unbreathable. Air pollution is a real problem outside of rainy season. Bangkok and Chiang Mai are to be avoided. It comes with a tingling of the eyes and a cough. "Pittsburgh 1960" is a very old scent, only evoking 'fond' memories of former generations (age 65+) of the black skies of factory towns across the USA. It comes with black dust that clings like glitter and dulls everything it touches... and won't wash off. But... the deluxe package comes with a recording of the steam engines running the tracks of the Pennsylvania Railroad. And that may make it a best seller among the lung cancer crowd. 9 januar  9 มกราคม Thai. Read Thai Chpt. 1 exor. 600/300/300/600 = 1800. 08:48-09:27, ~70 degrees.
