Nickle Pencils

Five cents for a pencil. Or two bucks. For some people, it is a no brainer. 5¢ each. Why would anyone ask? OK, first of all, the pencils cost a lot more for the cheaper ones. Anywhere from 6.9¢ to 28¢ each. In quantities from 576 to 18 pieces each. Are you planning to use 576 pencils? Most of the other cheap pencils run from 18 to 8 pieces each. If you are lucky and live near an art or stationery store you can buy the expensive ones for one at a time. If not, they run about $24.95 for a box of 12. (odd how everyone seems to have the same price.) Leaving oat a Dollar Tree store pricing of 10 for $1, that is whar pencils cost.

You saw my pencils yesterday. Including the one, I have used the most of yesterday. I have yet to use it up. I think I bought a box of them at least 10 years ago. And I still have all of them, They are scattered around the house. And damn! they write well. So very well. Hold that thought. I have another rabbit hole to go explore.

I have spent five or six years writing Morning Pages. Each morning I get up and write. I have filled 23 composition books with them, the morning thoughts. You can buy them for a buck each if you want to go to the Dollar Tree. Or you can get 12 for $19.99, or $1.67 each. bought a case, need to do so again.

Um, I’m sorry. I just paused for a meeting with a Portland brewing as in homebrewers as in beer. And after the meeting, well I need to finish this tomorrow. Damn, we can talk beers. Indeed. Tomorrow. again. And then I will return to typing about whatever to whoever and just get the words out.
