It's been a while since I wrote for Meanderings. Sometimes I forget, sometimes I don't know what to write about.
First, there is the diet. I gained weight when the pandemic lockdown began and my body is hungrily holding onto it. Fighting poundage has been a lifelong challenge for my entire family and I'm no exception. This is simply one more bump in the road.
Then there is the heat. I try to get outside and take a walk every day but in temperatures of high 80s F I just can't handle it. And I hate going to the gym.
OK so I guess this is my Meandering of complaints. I should end this here, keep it short.
On the upside, I'm preparing to enter the Indiana Poetry Society Annual Fall contest with 19 poems. Last year I had more than 20 entries and didn't win squat. Hopefully this year will be different.
I'll try to Meander back sooner rather than later with more upbeat news.
