  • since dumping fb and nextdoor….life is so much better. I have time to do creative things, not just duck from insults and the usual violence from Nextdoor, and to post for people who are only interested in cats. LOL. I love cats and dogs and have 10 cats and two dogs: a 15 month old cane corso and a 9 year old German Shepherd. they are hysterical to watch run around. Hana (Japanese for Flower) the Shepherd has been a mother to Maya the cane corso. No jealously, but Hana was saved from the ususal shelter slaughter by us two years ago at Xmas. She was only 49 lbs (she should have been 75 lbs) and she is so sweet and intelligent. We love her and she has stopped (finally) from eating toilet paper in the laundry room. LOL. That is progress. Maya, the cane corso is a riot, who watches the cats jump on my husband’s lap and wants to be a ‘lap kitty’. At 120 lbs…. she is quite a lap kitty.

    Life is good and leaving sites that just are energy vampires was the proper thing to do. there are about 4 people on fb that I do miss but they can contact me if they want. They are the ones who are intelligent enough to read. So many on ND and fb aren’t. As I said, energy vampires.

  • wow. it is amazing how peaceful my life and marriage has been. I detatched from fb, nextdoor, and all other sites. I am no longer interested in contributing to haiku sites, and other writing sites. there is peace here because of it.

    Facebook was a problem in any case. so many people there were trump supporters, (mostly secret ones) and it was never clear who was reading,…IF they ever could read. I am finishing a book and to publish another one on haibun this spring, but no one except a few on my former fb site would read. Maybe 4 people. LOL. why would I waste time on these crappy people. ???? Life is easier and calmer without this stuff.

  • i got this message from facebook this weekend. still don’t know what they are talkling about but I don’t have the right to an appeal. LOL. within the trumpian world, I must be seen as an ‘enemy of the state’. LOL.

    so it goes with facebook and so called ‘freedom of speech.’ which isn’t very free. still don’t know what ‘account integrity’ means. LOL. but so what. fb is no leader in any integrity these days.

  • but facebook and other of my sites have been deleted. this wordpress site is also scrambled…..such is life under the new authority.

  • Helga, Hedwig and Ingrid were summoned to Valhalla. They crossed the rainbow bridge entering Odin’s great hall. Two ravens, Hugin and Munin, perched upon Odin’s shoulders, as he addressed the warrior virgins.

    “My table is lacking the best of warriors. There’s a battle brewing below and I command you. Bring back the bravest of the dead. I would have company and fellowship.”

    So these three Valkyrior, “Choosers of the Slain” rode forth in their strange flickering armor, which flashed over the northern skies, and created the Aurora Borealis.

    Ingrid the youngest saw a warrior so beautiful, she would save him. His armor was knocked off in battle and she grew lustful. She became an iridescent mist and carried him far from harm. Changing back, she threw herself at his feet, kissing them.

    Being a man he grabbed her and took her maidenhood, leaving blood on the earth.

    The raven Hugin passing overhead, saw all and croaked into Odin’s ear their pleasures.

    Odin, thundering anger, ordered them to Valhalla, though the warrior still breathed. Ingrid clung to him, tearful, begging Odin’s mercy.

    Seeing her devotion, he allowed them life and gave immortality to the warrior. They gave him many grandchildren.
