I’m currently reading Caesar’s Women, the 4th book in Colleen McCullough’s Masters of Rome series:
I collected all of the books in the series and started reading them, in order, several years ago. I’ve read books 1 through 3 and am now reading my way through book 4. My reading has stalled due to personal reasons and my attention has gotten pulled into other activities, but I’m back to reading and hope to finish this book soon.
I signed up for a paid account at ProtonMail last weekend, set up my own email for my personal domain (funfoodlife.com), and have been having a gay ole time changing all my logins to my new email or to a new alias email addresses.
This is going to be an ongoing, lengthy process but my goal is to migrate my files, email and other cloud oriented things away from Microsoft and Google and regain some control of my online presence & privacy.
I’ve already removed most of my personal files & photos from my Google & OneDrive accounts, and I look forward to the day when I can delete my Microsoft accounts (I have 3 of them) and turn off all the free emails addresses I currently use.
(I was a Microsoft MVP for 8 years so I’ve had a heavy investment and dependency on all things Microsoft for a long time).
I boiled up some fresh sugar water & hung out a feeder over the weekend. Today I looked out my window and greeted the first hummingbird of the season.

We see right through the unshowered soul living in a car by the beach, or by the Walmart, or by the side of the road. But he’s there, and he used to be somebody. He still is. A firsthand account of homelessness in America.
