Ramblings

I found my keys this morning! They’ve been missing for more than a week. They must have fallen out of my pocket at some point while I was feeding the birds, as I found them sticking up out of the snow under the bird feeder. We had snow between when I lost them and when […]

I finished writing the current novel yesterday! Yay! It’s almost 39K. Am hoping that when I go back through it, I’ll pick up enough words to push it over 40. It’s the next Witch’s Heart book, and all of them are right around 40. In addition, I figured out that it was the 38th novel

Had some bad news yesterday, made me sad. Dealing with other stuff as well. Lots of pressure because I have to do All The Things before I leave for Vegas (which includes getting all the tax forms ready for my accountant…) Then I made the mistake of going to Costco while I was hungry. I

So. Yesterday, I wrote my blog post, went upstairs, stood in front of the writing computer, all ready to work… …And nothing. Nada. I tried all my usual tricks. Even sat down to consider that maybe I was in the wrong scene, that I was writing the wrong stuff, that I didn’t like what I

Yeah, this has come up again. Obviously, this is something I’m still working on. I need to get a better handle on it. Yesterday was an incredibly productive day for me.

One of the things that I truly enjoy is watching the birds at my feeder. Because of the snow, I’ve had to fill the feeder frequently. Now that it’s a little warmer, I’m also able to keep the water clear so they have fresh water as well. The mix of birds has changed. I used

In a perfect world, I’d be able to report that at this point we were back to normal. Except that it’s snowing again. Just tiny flakes. The temperature is right at freezing, though, so nothing is melting. We’ve left the truck at the bottom of the driveway, so at least we’re able to get in

Yesterday, after I finished posting my blog, I went upstairs in the tiny house and sat down for a short while, getting ready to start the fiction. Suddenly, I get hit with a wave of anxiety. What the fuck? Why did I suddenly have anxiety? There wasn’t anything. Was there something offensive in the blog

One of the ways that I try to make my diet easier is by paying attention to the language I use around eating. When I’m not careful, I end up with something like the situation that just occurred, and I’m eating too many carbs and not following the plan. One of the main word choices

Yup. Period started this morning. I’m just gonna say, “ow” and leave it at that. I really need to be more hard core keto, particularly during the week before my cycle starts. I wasn’t getting in all the veggies, was eating too many carbs, and now I’m paying for it. If I had a 28
