Actually, two things. Kind of.
In March of 2023 I started a knitting project, basically, a blanket. The pattern is kind of like a quilt. (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/modular-knit-quilt) I finished it recently. However, I didn’t make it exactly like the pattern.…
I wrote 50K words during the month of October 2024.
YAY! GO ME!
The last time I managed that was October 2023. That was also the only month in 2023 that I wrote that much. The last year that I consistently wrote 50K per month was 2019.…
I have a friend who’s considering getting a pellet grill. As I’ve had mine for over a year now, and I use it at least once a week (if not more) I figured that I had some opinions on the matter that I could let y’all know about.…
I haven’t talked about my writing much lately. (Then again, I haven’t been blogging regularly at all. I’m trying to change that, to start chatting with y’all again. Not going to guarantee a weekly basis, but that’s kind of what I’m shooting for.)…
To recap: March 2023 I had cataract surgery done, replacing the lenses in both eyes. My eyes were naturally monofocal, before the surgery. My left eye needed no correction in terms of seeing things close up, and my right eye needed very little correction to see far.…
As y’all may or may not recall, I had a full knee replacement done three years ago. I figured I’d report in about where I’m at with it.

Back in March of 2023, I changed my diet (again) to be mostly carnivore. I was pretty strict for the first month—nothing but animal products, straight black coffee or tea when I had it (because I can’t do dairy so it would have to be coconut milk), no chocolate or nuts, etc.…
I’ve been wanting to do an update on what’s happening in my life for a while now. I realized that part of why I was hesitating was because I’m still so much in the middle of things.
As you probably already know, people tend to just post positive things about their lives on social media.…
My husband wrote a Business for Breakfast book about World-Building Space Opera. Recently, while we were going for a drive (as we do) and talking about the next B4B book he’s writing, he asked me if I’d consider writing a business book on how to create magic systems.…
I take a lot (A LOT) of supplements. Some I take because I think they’re good for me. Others I take because they make a noticeable difference in my health.
This list is current as of June 2024. I’m only listing the supplements that I take that make a difference in my health, as well as the amounts.…
