Lost Late in Life
Five plus years ago when I started this blog I believed in my heart
placing words on paper void of all the personal details would
somehow be beneficial.
To a high degree I found blogging quite therapeutic.
In addition to my own articles I quite enjoyed participating in
daily / weekly prompts plus the interaction from other bloggers.
Yes, I considered myself an official member of Blogosphere.
And then along came the Pandemic . . .
Life became 10 times more difficult – maintain my sanity being ‘alone’,
I managed to keep busy and adapt to all the constant change.
Mid-may I interacted with an individual who was 6 plus months into AA recovery.
A child of an alcoholic I did my best to help – daily affirmations and texting – all
good – all above board = 100 % genuine.
Then either Facebook malfunctioned or said individual made decision no
more interaction (shut down).
It seems I didn’t take this type of rejection too well and best description of
my own feelings about this situation:
‘evolution of near becoming unglued’.
My entire life’s journey started to play out – the good, the bad and the ugly.
Confused, scared and fairly numb (still functional) I sought out reading material
a sudden need for info on what was happening to me so late in life.
It took awhile and then a book appeared – a book written for me – one all
about my sordid dysfunctional life.
The hard part was to admit to myself – like addicts do in the 12-step program.
It seems I’m a ‘Codependent’ and from time to time I’ll write about
the work I’m doing to overcome and hopefully find peace in my life.
You who I tried to help still follow me on here so I’ll say
“Thank you” for sending me down a new path which when
I arrive at the finish line should find me in a better place within
my personal life.
No bitter feelings toward you who I considered a friend rather prayers for
continued success on your own day-to-day journey
God Bless!!

Gone:
Days dining at fancy high-priced restaurants
Doggie bags:
Tomorrow’s leftovers or pooch’s super yummie treats
Older generation:
- health issues (some brought to light by former bad eating habits)
- fixed income
Gourmand:
- middle class non-exist
- reservation for rich
Forever:
Remembrances yesteryears 🙂

Writing Prompt ~ Bold and Billowy
A blog A place to vent Archived or current events Gray cloud Grows overhead Goodness knows what lies ahead All e'er desire Acknowledgement job well done Achievement awards show wall hung Infuriated thanks humanity Inappropriate topics show high reads score Incredible informative articles appear often ignored Nouns descriptive adjectives mind form Ne'er indulge drama anywhere social media Nor divulge private info networks digital literacy. ~ JAQ August Writing Prompts ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Writing Prompt – Zebra Stripes
Questionable memoire
Reminder emotional scars
Prison garb stripes black ‘n white
Strangers locked cells sleepless nights
Certain recepients good health care
Place free dental work dentures wear
Intrusive negative thoughts push away
Implants thou save dollars day after day
Many times think life for some so unfair
Uncontrollable facts unable mind e’er clear.
