A new blog to contain answers to prompts |
Since my old blog "Everyday Canvas "  became overfilled, here's a new one. This new blog item will continue answering prompts, the same as the old one. Cool water cascading to low ground
To spread good will and hope all around.  |
| Prompt: What do you like doing the most, these days? What do you not like? Does it make sense to hand off some of those things that you don’t like as much, if you have someone to hand them off to? ------------------ My answer is going to be so dull! As usual, I like reading and writing the most with a few twists into the mix. One of the twists is that my eyesight is not doing as well as it used to but it is only old age and I'm not going to go out of my way (i.e. get an operation or something of the kind) to fix it. So, at the moment, I'm depending more on listening to books, although the joy of actual reading one is lessened for me. I still like fooling around WdC and the internet some, and nowadays, I'm trying to write in my blog daily. I do write longhand into journals, too, which doesn't take much eye-work, so to speak. I used to like to fool around in the kitchen, but now that I only cook for me, I'm taking a whole lot of short cuts. My sons are very good in visiting me and I'm grateful for that, but they each have a different kind of diet and when they come, they cook for themselves. So when we are at the table, my two sons and me, there are three different kinds and ways of eating, such as a vegetarian almost vegan, muscle-builder with 90% meat, and me with my own mix of everything, and nobody passes the salt. I think passing the salt went away with the 1970s but I may be wrong. Then, of course there are those few people I like to connect with, although with the passing of time, most of my beloved friends and family are not here anymore. I miss them all, since there's something deeply human about wanting to connect, share stories, and simply be around the people I care about, but I still have a few friends and family I cherish and try to keep in touch regularly. Being with others I like is not the same as mindless entertainment. I still learn from them, as difficult as learning becomes in old age. When alone and not reading or writing, I also play word games on my pad, which does not take a toll on my eyes as the images are much larger and I wear special glasses for looking into the computer and such devices. This has become a blend of technology with leisure for me and after a few minutes of game playing I feel refreshed. About the things I don't like, I don't like loud noises, what's going on in the world as wars and misunderstandings and such, and not being able to do as much as I could do once upon a time. As far as doing goes, I don't have much to hand off to others because I like doing my stuff for myself. I guess this part of the question would interest the younger set who are still working out there in the world and are made to do jobs they don't like. The only thing I don't like to do is to see someone I like in trouble of any kind, and that would be something I wouldn't want to hand off to anyone else. |
