Writing and Coloring in 2020s

My Home Sweet Home coloring book came today, and I’ve definitely been on a coloring spree. There are 31 illustrations and got most of one picture done already. The drawings are very homey, with various scenes around a house: a living room with a fire going in the fireplace and a dog sleeping nearby, a garden, an attic full of different things, kitchens, living rooms, bathrooms, bedrooms—you name it.

I think I’m going to take a break from the clonazepam. It didn’t seem to help last time around. Yeah, I fell asleep, but I slept really poorly. I kept waking up—either I was hot, or I was cold, or I had to pee, or whatever.

I had a dream that we were stuck living in an apartment converted from some kind of building. Instead of a regular solid wall between us and the neighbors, there was this huge glass wall. In the dream, we were so broke that it was going to be a while before we could afford to buy and hang some kind of curtain or drape for privacy. It was a really weird dream. Like I said, I’m going to take a break from the clonazepam because I’ve caught up on sleep and don’t want to overdo it. If I’m going to sleep poorly anyway until I get the CPAP back and get used to it, why take it unless I’m really struggling to fall asleep or not getting enough sleep?

Interestingly enough, my nose is almost normal. I still want to see an ENT, and I still think I could have some kind of polyps or something, but it has improved. Of course, I’m still sleeping with a humidifier, and that really makes a huge difference. Much bigger than I thought it would, because while this may be Florida, it’s not humid inside the house since the AC dries things up.

AI recommends either vinegar or baking soda to brighten up my dingy, dull dresses. My bride doll’s dress is getting dingy, and my ballerina dolls’ tutus are too.

I found all the golf balls on all the courses, and last night I went on a major writing spree and got three chapters done in my book, totaling 3,302 words! I never would have gotten this far this fast the old-fashioned way. Thanks to talk typing and even more thanks to AI, I can get so much more done so much quicker. I just have to make sure AI didn’t change anything other than to correct anything that might need it. I also wish I had as many story ideas as I used to now that I have all these tools.

I have my main Facebook account, one for my bio, and now I think I’m going to create one just for photos.

I slept through the mowers and the honker was out all day. He never worked on his lanai. He still doesn’t have the siding on and I wonder if he’s waiting on inspections.
