CH. 13 - Checking in.

I normally use these blogs as a way to express myself, although today I wanted to take this CH. 13 and its significance of what the number means to me, to take a second ask you all, How are you guys, really truly; how are you guys feeling? I am grateful for all the comments you have left in the past two months and would just like to take the time see where my peers are at in their life's right now. If you don't wish to share that is fine I can respect that, feel free to leave *no comment* if you must. So from the top, thank you all and how are you?

Ch. 12 Terza rima ... ish


Swamped, crushed, mired, moored.

Yes a rampaging beast that does not cease.

The end of term can be a boar.

One can often find themselves with books thrown into their face.

We drink cup after cup of vigorous viscous liquid.

To what end do we chase?

We obscure ourselves from the truth blinded by these waters we find ever so limpid.

The path in front of us may be clear but getting there can fill one with fear.

A fear so true that it may leave one’s soul fridged.

Creeping ebbing a fear ever so near.

Shout, fight, self-affirm, through all these doubts and all these trials we rise.

No matter how far or how close our dreams are, side by side together we will Persevere.

A Poem by Silver Ray Evens

CH. 11 Sleep

Instructions

Slow your breathing, take the time to make your space a comfortable one. Breath in a deep breath for four seconds, hold that breath for7 seconds, than exhale while whispering these words for about 8 seconds. Take the time to truly hear the pronunciation from your mouth. The full 8 seconds do not have to be spent saying the word just the attention to what is being said and the counting of how long you exhale before your repeat to the next word. Do this four times then read the last word.

CH. 10 5.10.1 Creating Outlines

 

5.10.1 Creating Outlines

This section got me, it is not the easiest to wrap my brain around because my head wants to know every little thing like how did excel know to grab that data or how to make that data part of the outline. But at the end of the day we only need to learn how to create, collapse & expand. modify, and remove the outline. So remember go to the data tab on the ribbon of Excel and click subtotal in the outline section to get the wonderful little window that pops up and helps you set everything. best way to learn for this one unfortunately is just by doing.
