Walk, Podcast, Flowers… Repeat

March 22, 2020

I haven’t figured out everything about managing my time during these long, homebound days, but one thing I can rely on is lots of walks. I am also upping my podcast game. Building a nice library as we speak. Besides a bunch of NPR program favorites (Hidden Brain, This American Life, Fresh Air, Wait Wait), I discovered one yesterday called Pod Save America that I really enjoyed (a bunch of dem strategists, strategizing) and have a few more queued up: Buddhist Boot Camp, Unlocking Us (Brene Brown), Rachel Maddow, and The Daily, which has been great for deeper dives into current news.

I can also imagine walks could be a good time to have phone conversations with people. I’m actually missing people.

Those were daisies along B Street and a pretty blooming tree at Community Park.

About This Blog

I launched this blog in October of 2008 with a goal to "write" -- to refine technique, experiment with different styles, voices.. but I only posted sporadically. No experimenting was had. So, for the entire 2011 year, I tried a different approach: I wrote every day using a "photo-a-day" device to prompt daily writing. It worked, but it became more of a "photo and daily commentary" kind of journal, and was a lot less about developing writing technique. Still no experimenting was had. I felt bad about this. Like I was cheating. But I love the photos and commentary. It has been a fun way to document life, the seasons, my family, and who doesn't want one of those? I took a break in 2012 and 2013... somewhat unintentionally... but now I'm going to return to a daily photo blog, this time unapologetically. Life of Wry is now a journally thing. No cutting edge writing, no experimentation, no risk taking, no vulnerability, just easy peasy breezy writing about what's going on in my and my family's life. And photos, lots of photos. And that's that. Thanks for stopping by.
