#Today 10

Good day!

The pilested woodpecker. I hear them sometimes, but until recently, and on a day when it actually wasn’t raining, I hadn’t gotten close enough to clearly see one.

Is all the rain attracting more birds than usual? No idea. It could be a coincidence.

Be everwell.

FLIES • Han Noss – Every Day Fiction

What if I told you that when I am older, I will likely suffer from dementia, because nowadays in my twenties I experience chronic loneliness issues or symptoms that people don't recognise. I wish it was easy to say that I am wealthy and happy, but no. Maybe this vent will be lost into the echo.

Kevin's Limerick of the Day

Aging

The old man began to opine
As he toasted the pinot divine
“The wine,” said the sage
“May get better with age”
“And my age sure gets better with wine”

#Today 09

Good day!

Yesterday at the underpass, I turned to take a picture that ultimately didn’t happen. When I turned back around, this was the scene.

If I hadn’t paused, we’d have encountered each other at the other end. The pause also placed the camera in my hand.

Be everwell.
