I haven’t lost any weight since December. I haven’t gained any weight either. I count that as a win. I have kept my various email inboxes if not completely empty at least close to it. I found that very motivating. I actually found myself looking forward to going through my email so I could empty […]

I’ve spent the last couple of days going through my inbox and clearing out my old emails. I easily cleared out over 1000 emails, maybe more. I don’t have a clear idea of how many I had when I started. (Not sure I want to know.) As of this morning, I am down to 10
At this point, I do not consider myself “good” at email. Maybe I need better terms though. I do not reply to people in a timely manner, particularly if it calls for a long, thoughtful post. I let my email become a very inefficient to do list and let things just hang out in my
Yesterday, I reached my goal of 700,000 words written for 2019. Wow. Yeah, that kind of boggles me as well. My original goal had been 750K. I kept pushing toward that, but never quite made it. The writing marathons helped me reach 700K. Without them, I would have written 600K for the year. (And you

We are home from visiting my family in MN. The holidays are mostly over, as we don’t tend to do a lot for New Years, except to “write the year in.” I’m mostly recovered from the strep. My lymph nodes are still swollen and sore to the touch, but most of the pain in my

I’ve been writing for quite some time. I’ve finished 44 novels and have already started #45. My process changes sometimes, depending on the novel. I’m okay with that, have enough experience to be able to flow with it. In addition, I’m pretty good at not listening to those outside voices when it comes to my

I started following the Paleo diet back in 2009, so ten years ago. Before then, I was constantly congested. I lived on antihistamines and just figured I was allergic to everything out there, something that bloomed every season because I never had an off month. I had between three to four sinus infections every year.
Yesterday was a pretty Meh day. I had no energy, no strength. I still made myself get up and do some yoga, went for a short walk around the property, etc. It was a day of very few spoons, though. I’d do something, like speak Hungarian for twenty minutes, then I’d have to sit and

Yesterday my sweetie and I got up, showered, fed the cat, went out to breakfast, went grocery shopping, then came home and put on our PJs for the day. We bumped up the heat in the house so it was comfortable and quite frankly, took the day off. WOW. Did I need that. This is
This is a rant. Y’all have been warned. I didn’t sleep well last night. That happens every now and again. It used to happen all the damned time, before I started doing serious ketosis. I know someone who describes sleep as their best friend. For much of my life, sleep and I were casual acquaintances.
