Series – Future Self Journal – 27G -4k All Day

I have found a pattern with my productivity during garden months. A high running around day is always followed by a lazier day. Back and forth. Contemplating whether I should aim for a happy consistent medium. Probably not. The winter brings consistency of schedule, but garden, weather and other tasks require a great deal more …

Series – Future Self Journal – 26G – Check In

Checking in with my goals. I swear, garden season appears, other concerns disappear. Completely. I reviewed my previous installation detailing what I want to accomplish this year. The year is over half over already, time has rushed by so fast I ceased to see most of it! I follow Dr. Nicole Le Pera on Insta …

Series – Future Self Journaling – 23G – Winter Neighbor Drama

LOL did y’all see what my last FSJ installment said? That I was back on track out would continue throughout the summer. I tell you what. The garden is a Siren, a call I heed if the sun is out and the weather is over 60 degrees. I should have known better. Anyway… How you …

Series – Future Self Journaling – 21G – More Movie Watchin’

I just finished watching the cutest movie! 1947’s The Egg and I with Claudette Colbert and Fred McMurray. It’s funny how a random movie filmed about seventy-five years ago can reinforce how you feel about a thing. I’ve always wanted a home in the country, yet was 100% that I did not want to go …

Series – Future Self Journaling – 19G – He Cries When a Job is Well Done

He thinks it’s stupid, I find it endearing. He settles on the couch, hears the most lovely verse, and bursts into tears. The Sps is an artist. He appreciates the perfectly delivered line in a movie, the immersive costume in a period piece, a most evocative tagline of a product. He understands the drive of …

Series – Future Self Journaling – 5G – Grand Hotel 1932

I didn’t really understand the backstory of Greta’s character Grusinskaya, maybe that was the problem. I did not know what motivated her to be so extra, as we are deprived of her character arc. Perhaps it was the story or direction of Grand Hotel that was bad? John Barrymore was striking in the film, I bought his character completely. Joan Crawford was absolutely sublime.
