January 11th – Day 10 of My 2026 Daily Activity Journal

Today is Sunday – almost midway through January!  This year, much like the past few, seems to be flying by.

I should be deep into hibernation mode by now, but life does not seem to be co-operating.  Yesterday, I was ready for a nice relaxing day, but Microsoft decided to pick a fight.  I would say I won, but while I may or may not have saved my account from some hacker, I have locked myself out of my phone.  I can gain access by entering my handy dandy new PIN code, but that has already gotten old.

Our weather is likewise failing to co-operate.  While we should be facing frigid temps, cloudy skies, and occasional blizzards – we have clear skies, above freezing temps and the only snow we have has packed down to a solid sheet of ice. Other than the ice, I can live with this, but it does make hibernating a challenge.

I continue to work on my winter crochet project.

I have now formed three balls of yarns out of skeins that had self destructed.   I also made two flowers which I tossed due to their less than professional appearance.  I will give it a couple of more tries before I move on.   Maybe I possess more skills creating fluffy pastel insects…

This week I am planning on another fieldtrip – either to Walmart or to our Victoria Square Mall. 

I have always been partial to Vic Square and  apparently they have added mini golf to their offerings and Spunky’s Nuttery Bar.   Spunky appears to be dowright edgy since he carries cigarettes, vape products, Watkins spice and extract products, as well as his own  line of Spunky Nuts. 

It has been a long while but there are memories awaiting at Vic Square.  (Like..a young Maddy charging into a virtual reality battle while Mom stood by to ensure she stayed on her saddle.)

That is it for today.  Take care and have a great rest of your day!

  2. Computers and devices, we love them and hate them too, eh! I use Instagram and learned why I got a notification to change my PW which I did, it seems hackers broke into the IG database and compromised 17 million accounts.

    Sickening people. My devices go wonky too, the MacBook has been acting stupid lately but nothing a quick reboot can’t fix. I’m sure you’ll get plenty of snow this winter, its still only January! Make like a bear and hibernate, Anne.

  3. Thats the thing with social media. I have met people around thd globe that I really connect with. But, then something goes wrong and it makes us realize how vulnerable we are.
    Thank you, John. I’m sure we haven’t

  4. Tech frustrations are real. Been there, done that, many, many times over the years. That said, I can’t imagine life without my smart phone, e-reader, iPad, and Professor Google. So, I just persevere until a solution is found – either by me, or said Professor. I look forward to seeing one of your crocheted flowers or animals, Anne.
