One down two to go in the picture department. 150 characters isn't enough to say everything needed sometimes. Anyway, check the chart below my post for what's done, and what still needs to be done. I hope to have one or both of the others up this week sometime if I can mange it. Only time will tell.
Oh, my title today comes from
Mary Poppins, it's the name of the game ". . .Otherwise entitled: Let's tidy up the Nursery."

I used to live out in the midwest (Texas to be specific), which is pretty much flat. They call that area of the US
Tornado Alley on the news for a reason, because violent summer storms are so frequent there, there's many tornadoes each and every year. I've been away from that for well, 15 or 16 years now, so I'm gradually becoming used to lightning and thunder, but wind still rattles my nerves once in a while. It is strange that I didn't let that storm get to me, but I guess I'm changing on that front too.
Shogi is actually a little more complex that Western Chess in terms of piece promotion, move patterns(they change when a piece is promoted) and overall style, which is something I find more challenging to play, and I don't get quite so upset with myself when I lose, because I know I'm still learning the game and computers are little demons themselves when it comes to playing strategy games.
I was never one to get caught up in all that celebrity nonsense. I don't watch movies, TV, or listen to music because it's "popular" I stick with what I enjoy, and don't give a [
Censored] what anyone else thinks. There have been times people have capitalized on that, especially in school, but I don't give those losers the time of day when I see them on the street anymore either. Turnabout is fair play is it not?

I do appreciate the value of nature myself, I like to go on hikes when I can, I've got a trail that was an old railroad track running pretty much through town, and I like to go walking out on it. I haven't come to any of the tunnels yet (there are 22 on the 70+ mile trail) but I'll get to one really soon if I can push myself (it's about two miles in from an access point, a good hour's walk). Of course I enjoy a light rain too, I liketo sit back and listen to it pelting the roof above, thunder and lightning are things to behold once in a while too, but it's high winds that tend to get to me mentally. I'm a sucker for snow too especially snow that's falling at night, it's very poetic, but I can't ever get the mood right when I try to set a scene I'm writing in snow. Eventually I'll get it, I just have to find the magic word flow that takes the mind on that journey.
I also should mention that I'm one of those insanely stupid people who go outside with my camera to take pictures of storm clouds (even when it's not smart to do so). That one is from a storm just a day prior to the one I let myself soak in. There wasn't a lot of sound and fury with the pictured storm, but as you can see it was nice and dark that afternoon.
