Musings & Thoughts for Saturday, April 29, 2023: Weekend Update, Part the First

It’s Been a Long, Long Day It’s late morning here on Friday, April 28, 2023, here in lovely Lithia, Florida. For me, it’s been a longer than usual morning: I don’t know at what time I went to sleep last night; was it 10 PM? 11 PM? I don’t know. I just remember feeling drowsy…

You put the ‘Sun’ into my day. Happy Sunday! ― Anthony T. Hincks It’s late morning here in Lithia, Florida, on a quiet, cool-but-warming-up Sunday, April 23, 2023. I wanted to sleep at least until 8; I went to bed way past midnight (I didn’t go to the kitchen to check the time before I…

Musings & Thoughts for Saturday, April 22, 2023, or: Weekend Update, Part the First
Wowie zowie. It’s already afternoon here in Lithia on Saturday, April 22, 2023! Where did my morning go, and why did it morph into the afternoon so quickly? It appears like I woke up a little while ago, wandered into the kitchen, brewed (and then drank) two cups of coffee, then came back in here…

* Just don’t ask me to define “Soon.” Well, Dear Reader, it’s official. Yesterday afternoon, despite feeling foggy-brained from lack of sleep and no small amount of writer’s jitters, I tapped out the first 400 words of the new story – Project X, so-called.
