Writing: Self-Discovery Deck Prompt #2

  What do you know you'll regret if you don't make it happen in your life? I try really hard to live life without regrets.  Everything that does or doesn't happen makes me the person that I am.  That said, there's one thing that I'd really like to happen before I leave this world.   I want to travel outside the US. In my 50 years, I've never been outside of the United States.  Until I was 29, I hadn't been out of the Eastern Time Zone.  I'd been up and down the east coast - living in a small town in New York, visit family in Florida, visiting Washington DC, moving to Florida, moving to New York City, moving to Philly... and I loved every minute of these trips and moves.  But I wanted to see more of the country. At 29, I went to visit a friend/partner in Montana.  I was so excited to see a different landscape.  And it was.  The mountains were far different than the ones on the east coast.  The air felt different.  The peopl...

In Progress: Daily and Monthly Challenges, Week 8

 Yes, I'm running a day later than usual.  I sat in front of the computer to type up my blog post and just... couldn't do it.  There are a lot of things on my mind regarding the state of the country and I just needed distraction rather than focus.  Today, while still worried, I feel better able to handle to frustrations and still be productive. My reading has been... I've been reading every day but I can't remember much of what I have read.  As per usual, I'm in the middle of about 5 books and I bounce between them.  My sleep-reading has continued the Guild Codex  series.  I finished Slaying Monsters for the Feeble (the 2nd book in the Demonized  sub-series) and started Druid Vices and a Vodka  last night.  These I don't count in my over all titles for reading because I'm asleep for a lot of it.  I finished The Radical King  and, once I've got the money to do so, am planning on buying a paperback copy of it that I can high...

Other Updates - Dad's House, Decluttering and Letters

 Today, I had the closing on Dad's house.  It was far quicker than I expected, and much easier.  It was also a bit bittersweet because all I can think of are the things I left behind.  I know that I don't want or need them, but there's that bit of regret that always seems to happen with things like this.  But at least this part has finished.  I just need to wait for another couple months to get the remainder of the money after debts are paid.  There shouldn't be a lot of them so I should still get a good amount.  That, combined with what I'm getting back from my taxes... I should have a bit of a hefty padding to keep us afloat if things go bad. I spent time this past week decluttering my closet.  I got rid of a lot of crap that was just taking up space, reorganized my clothes in the closet, and put several things in a bag for Goodwill.  I was pretty pleased with how it all came out, and I'm no longer afraid of opening my closet to get so...
