It's challenge time!

Comment with Just One Thing you've accomplished in the last 24 hours or so. It doesn't have to be a hard thing, or even a thing that you think is particularly awesome. Just a thing that you did.

Feel free to share more than one thing if you're feeling particularly accomplished!

Extra credit: find someone in the comments and give them props for what they achieved!

Nothing is too big, too small, too strange or too cryptic. And in case you'd rather do this in private, anonymous comments are screened. I will only unscreen if you ask me to.

Go!

Daily Check In

This month has been a terror for remembering these, and tonight, the 26th, I realized my numbers were off on the grid. Backtracked via recording the step count... I totally missed posting one on the 15th, even backdated. While I did have my step count (thanks tracker), I am arbitrarily assigning 100 words as the count that day, as I cannot backtrack that number. I know it was non-zero, as I ALWAYS notice my goose-egg days, and the two I am showing this month are the only two I recall.

"Not a Destination, But a Process" has 134 comments. "The Democratic Armada of the Caribbean" has 86 comments.


"In the Heart of the Hidden Garden" belongs to the Antimatter and Stalwart Stan thread of the Polychrome Heroics series. It needs $86 to be fully funded. Lawrence shows Stan around the campus at the University of Nebraska-Omaha.


The weather has been delightfully cool here, and we got some rain. Seen at the birdfeeders this week: a mixed flock of sparrows and house finches, several starlings, several catbirds, several blackbirds, several mourning doves, several robins, a pair of cardinals, two brown thrashers, a grackle, a blue jay, an adult fox squirrel, two young fox squirrels, and a skunk. Asiatic lilies have buds.  The pink peony and poppies are done blooming. Irises are winding down. Currently blooming: dandelions, honeysuckle, alliums, pansies, violas, marigolds, petunias, red salvia, wild strawberries, verbena, lantana, sweet alyssum, zinnias, snapdragons, blue lobelia, perennial pinks, impatiens, oxalis, moss rose, yarrow, red coreopsis, white peony, blackberries, irises, tomatoes, tomatillos, Washington hawthorn, privet, mock orange, dogwood.  Mulberries and raspberries have green fruit.

I have a bee tree again! :D 3q3q3q!!! I am so excited. While walking through the savanna, I heard the lawnmower sound, so I checked the most recent bee tree and the girls were back to-ing and fro-ing overhead. *GLEE*

Birdfeeding

Today is mostly sunny and mild.

We walked around the south lot, then my partner Doug mowed that. 

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I fed the birds.  I've seen several sparrows and house finches, a male cardinal, and a young fox squirrel.  Robins are foraging the newly cut grass.  We found a toad in the south lot, and I moved him to the shadier garden under the maple tree.

I put out water for the birds.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I sowed partial shade wildflower seed mix in a pot on the old picnic table.  I sowed cypress vine seeds in the septic garden and around the support wire of the telephone pole.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I watered the septic garden, patio plants, and a few other things.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I watered the telephone pole garden, hollies, and Colorado blue spruce.

My partner Doug plans to mow the savanna next.

I've seen two catbirds, a grackle, and a female cardinal.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I started trimming around things in the house yard.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I finished the first bit of trimming around things in the house yard.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I started trimming in front of the log garden in the house yard.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I finished trimming in front of the log garden in the house yard.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I trimmed brush along the path from the driveway to the savanna.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.

EDIT 5/26/25 -- I trimmed brush along the east side of the house.

As it is getting dark, I am done for the night.

Some Rogue One thoughts

I just compared Jyn Erso to Han Solo

This moment, where she protects KayToo from Baze. No hesitation. Just throws herself out there.

She spends so much of the movie pretending not to care when asked about things, that she's only in it to get answers about her dad.

But Jyn, LIKE HAN, has a problem. She CARES deeply. She WANTS to do the RIGHT THING. All else is bluffing, bravado, and an attempt to shield against any more pain.

Jyn is the Han analogue for Rogue One.

(Baze and Chirrut are the R2-D2/C-3PO analogues, you cannot change my mind on this)

Poem: "The Release of Human Potentialities"

This poem is spillover from the August 6, 2024 Poetry Fishbowl. It was inspired by prompts from [personal profile] fuzzyred, [personal profile] helgatwb, [personal profile] rix_scaedu, and [personal profile] wyld_dandelyon. It also fills the "books" square in my 8-1-24 card for the Discworld Bingo fest. This poem has been sponsored by a pool with [personal profile] fuzzyred and [personal profile] janetmiles. It belongs to the Shiv thread of the Polychrome Heroics series.

Warning: Most of this poem is upbeat, but it does touch on some past issues of educational abuse.
