loosely like petals
days open in grace and light
when there's hope, and love

#dailyhaikuprompt 'roses'

it makes me so happy when music comes on that i added to my playlist because someone here on fedi shared it and i liked it
i like that interconnectedness
we affect each other
in little ways but also in bigger ways than we might think, i suspect
i’m enjoying my life more today because of some of you out there :eariz_bun_peek: ♥️

you are the dew
my love
soft kisses
on new life
refreshing
gentle
waiting

your love is a reservoir
not a deluge

in your embrace
i rest
i breathe
i sigh

content
and safe

for always
you say
for always

and i believe you
this glistening
sparkling
dew

Kulturbarneleir vel overstått.

Midt i det travle livet med regi og omsorg rekker jeg av og til å sette meg ned med trådsneller og lage krans. I år rakk jeg å lage 8-9.

Hver krans skal si noe om den jeg har i tankene når den lages. Ganske sikker på at om du viser meg en tilfeldig krans fra leiren kan jeg si hvem som fikk akkurat den.

Fineste T har her fått roser, rosespirea og timian.

If you're looking for a job, here's a tip:

Employers want you desperate, but not in ways that might make you steal. So debt is bad, but student debt is good. They like to hear that you have family depending on you at home and that you don't own it. They want you to be spending as much of your paycheck as possible just on life maintenance. So play that sort of thing up in the interview.

Also, I have experimented with faking being a Christian and it got me a job in an emergency. Just drop a "I really pray I can get this job" or something like that, and they love it (assuming the boss is religious..)

"Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters."

i kept looking at the most excellent (fahrenheit) dew-point dankness scale made by @WEATHERISHAPPENING and wondering why it felt SO DANK out to me when the scale clearly said that it was nothing of the sort. and then i finally twigged that of course i'm not in f, i'm in c! :oh_no:

i have, therefore, made this CENTIGRELSIUS dew-point dankness scale based on the original but with my own ... flavours.

if you're in a c place, i hope it helps!

(and presumably it goes without saying, but still: you should repent to your weather lords. like, A LOT.)

i need your love
like the desert needs the rain:
never.
because i have learned
to bloom
on my own

and besides
after you left me
i made friends
with the dew

i need your love
never again

i wish you well
(and i wish you
other friends)

I just had my first tomato that I grew myself!! It was orange-red in color and I was watering my garden before the heat of the day and I just plucked it and ate it! The rest of the bunch should be ready tomorrow or Sunday.

Gertie would like to remind you to take a nap, even if you just woke up.

'I am not in the dumps anymore.'

'Why?' asked Frog.

'Because I have done all that work,' said Toad. 'Now I can save tomorrow for something that I really want to do.'

One more.

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles..."

— Jack Kerouac

Does the fear of being boring have a name?

Tediouphobia?

I think I have that phobia. And I think there are some people that don't have it, but they really should. 😇
