It Wasn't Too Long, After Anachron Landed That It Wanted To Chat, It Was In Fact, Demanded.

It wasn't too long, after Anachron landed that it wanted to chat, it was in fact, demanded.

Anachron introduced itself quickly, to all the world leaders looking rather sickly.

Then it hustled away back up into its spaceship. Was that it? The world wondered… It had been a long trip!

Then the world watched as Anachron and crew blasted back into the sky and beyond the blue.

To a planet more yellow, a world more like their own. To Venus just one orbit over they've flown.

Now they live over there and what do they do? They complain! And not just about Venus, Earth too!

They complain that our oceans are really too clean, our beaches too sparkling, our forests too serene.

But they can't breathe our air - not enough argon you see. So they just sit there on Venus, cranky as can be.

This is my ‘Happy Chart’. It has all the things that make me happy on it, except for everything that I forgot to include or ran out of space for  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don’t usually take pictures of meals I make, because usually they aren’t exactly what most would call “photogenic” lol. This one though, inspired by the single lonely corn tortilla in my fridge, seemed worth remembering.

I fried the tortilla in grated cheese, then layered on some frozen corn, chopped up black beans, tomatoes, cilantro, and more cheese. Then served it with a wedge of lime and some hot salsa and plain yogurt for topping, and chips for dipping. Washed it down with some mango kombucha mixed with mango juice.

Some of my cooking experiments don’t really pan out, but this one was delicious yum!Definitely would make this again.

The little green side dish is lunch for my pet rat, Wagner :) He’s getting pretty old now, but he’s still always eager to eat so I like to feed him yummy healthy treats when I can!

Anachron lived on a far away planet. That planet, its life forms, they call it Janet.

Janet the planet is terribly gusty. Half of it's musty, the other half dusty.

Sand storms, dust storms and mud storms oh my! Sounds like a place you'd visit then die.

So it's no wonder then, that Anachron flew on a spaceship away from that place with no blue.

To our world, a place that is luscious and green, with waters the bluest that it’s ever seen.

For all lakes on Janet are yellowy-orangish, and redishy-brownish and greyishy boron-rich.

And the forests are all gone on Janet, it's quite sad. We know just what went wrong: life, it's quite bad.

So Anachron came and it wanted to stay... and we gave it a spot just outside of Palm Bay.

Unexpected day of homeschooling last week, so we did one of our favorite activities - “timed” drawings. 10 minutes per picture, plus an extra bonus 5 to finish up if needed. The themes this time were “Happy, Funny, and Crazy.” Always lots of fun with this activity :)

I’m a co-parent so only had part of the day with my son for Halloween, but we made the best of it with a fun spooky scavenger hunt! The gummy worms are all gone now nom nom nom
