Baggage, Becoming Too Heavy to Carry

By Dwayne on Monday, October 16, 2017
emotional baggage

Once again I’m forced into recognizing my foibles, and likely foible is to tame a word. It refers to the emotional baggage I carry and feel unable to divest myself of. The baggage, the stress, of group gatherings. The Why I’m commenting on my disinclination to want or need personal get-togethers, family gatherings in particular. …

I Smelled Camp

By Dwayne on Tuesday, September 5, 2017

It’s our last day here, ‘here’ being Shuswap Provincial Park. I arose to a beautiful sunny day, took care of some business and made my morning coffee. Instant in this case as I’m out of ground. I gathered my stuff and stepped outside with my fresh cup of Joe. What did I encounter when I …

All About Nothing

By Dwayne on Saturday, September 2, 2017

Fell into Earls (haha, I like that, “Fell into”) here in Kamloops. Time to kill so I thought I’d drop in and write all about nothing. Have Laptop, will Travel. Seems most of what I put down is much about nothing anyway, hence Banal Writing. Having a beer seemed appropriate as well. Today is our …

“Just Write” They Said

By Dwayne on Friday, September 1, 2017

Writing the last few days has become a challenge. We are camping and somehow I believed the alone time would spur some ideas and the writing would sprout from me like new growth from ripe potatoes. I’ve brought along a book I picked up in Spokane titled “Writing Voice” and in it, like in other …

By Dwayne on Friday, August 25, 2017
brake inspection

Both demand focus, and with focus comes a certain disconnection from what goes on around you, Skills are required, as are the correct tools, Each can take you to other places, …

Flashbacks, of Syringa

By Dwayne on Thursday, August 24, 2017
Flashbacks of Syringa sunsets

I’m having flashbacks, and they aren’t the drug or alcohol induced kind. My flashbacks are the ones that occurs when you see, smell, or taste something familiar and it pulls you back to a prior life. They take you back to something, someplace, that holds a positive place in your soul. In my case it’s …

I Think I’ve Turned the Corner, Out of my Depression

By Dwayne on Saturday, August 19, 2017
Flashbacks of Syringa sunsets

I’m optimistic that the title of this post tells the story, that in fact I have turned the corner. Whether it’s the weather (haha), as in forest fire smoke, or hormones I don’t know. It could just be my synapses getting their act together. Whatever the cause, I’m glad it seems to have subsided, at …

Hat In Hand

By Dwayne on Tuesday, August 8, 2017

Once again I come with hat in hand, writing with no idea what words will pour forth, I have an idea of what I want to say but not how to say it. I come begging that the thoughts will somehow magically appear on the page. The last little while I’ve felt decidedly cranky, my …

Colour Inside the Lines

By Dwayne on Sunday, August 6, 2017

Once again what was intended to be a simple post turned into a chore of larger proportions. Lately it seems to be my lot in life, certainly as far as blogging goes. Either something goes amiss with my attempt to post, like hotspot problems, software, computer updates, etc., or I see something shiny and get …
