Ramblings

It’s been 76 days since my last migraine. For the last couple of months, I have had headaches on or around my period. This month, I didn’t. I felt lousy for a couple of days, but I really didn’t have a headache. I guess my brain is still healing. I did end up with a […]

So, remember when I said I was going to work on being more balanced in 2018? Take breaks? Not push myself too hard? Yeah, I completely failed at that yesterday. I had a lot of physical things to do, and I just went ahead and worked. And worked some more. And then, you guessed it,

Much of 2017 was a time of transition for me. The early part of 2018 is going to continue along the same vein. I keep saying that I’m not going to be able to figure out what the “new normal” is until June or July 2018. That being said, I’m happy with where I was,

It’s been 60 days since my last migraine. This month, I had three bad headaches. One was the usual “2-3 days before my cycle starts” headache. One occurred on the day I flew to Minneapolis for the holidays. (We caught a red-eye and left at 11:50 PM. However, I couldn’t sleep on the plane. I

I figure that’s a great headline, right? I had a few headaches in November. 4, in fact. All of them occurred the week of my period. But no migraines. None. Zero. Zilch. And I feel good. I have hopes that I won’t have any migraines in December, either. We’ll see what actually happens, but I’m

I know, I know, I’ve really fallen off the wagon for regular reporting. I plan on getting back on that in December. The short version: 2 migraines and a few headaches in October. NO migraines and just a few headaches in November!!!! Long version: I had the expected migraine in October, that occurred during my

Yay! Yay! Yay! New Novel now available! Here’s the blurb: Christine works hard every night to rebuild the fairy bridge to Trollsville and the other worlds–the one she destroyed in order to claim her magical power. But the rocks fight her. Does the bridge not want to be repaired? Or did Christine take the wrong

As some of you may or may not know, I did a “marathon” this last week. I’ve been away at a writing retreat all week. My goal was to write 10K words per day, as well as to walk 10K steps per day. The larger goal was to start and finish a new novel. I

#MeToo I haven’t been able to respond to this campaign–too many feelings, too much else going on. But yes, I’ve been sexually assaulted. I’ve had my boobs and butt grabbed numerous times. I had one drunk at a party insist on giving me a hug, then biting my shoulder so hard he left bruises.  I
