So yeah, it’s been a few weeks. First I had an eye infection, complete with an ulcerated cornea, which meant absolutely no screen time. Then I went away to GNEW and was busy taking down my pavilion and driving home, so there was no posting. I meant to do it Monday, but I woke up …

Weekly news roundup – The Remicade week in review
Posted on June 24, 2018
This week was a bit of this and that, but this seems to be a good headline for this post for the nonce. My week got thrown for a bit of a loop because I needed to do some hard things this week, but I did them, and I’m very proud of myself for …
Life reboot: 2.0.
Posted on June 3, 2018
Life has been weird lately, and I’m not sure why. Of course, I just got home from Balticon, and I’m sick (again – I swear Maryland is trying to kill me), so that might be part of it. I’m still glad I went -I spent a lot of time going to panels on the business …
(personal/writing/advent) 2018 – my first full year alone
Posted on January 4, 2018
I swear this year is going to be better. I won’t let it be the same way it was last year. I won’t. But things are going to have to change. I’m realizing how hard it is to do things on my own – not just in terms of emotionally (because it IS hard, …
A week in review
Posted on January 18, 2017
Wednesdays are going to be my week in review, moving forward. It’s a good day to stop and take a look at the last week (Sunday through Saturday) and see what I’ve accomplished (or not accomplished). Last week, I was sick, so this week in review is not going to be as long …
(goals/writing/personal) Looking towards the future
Posted on January 8, 2017
It’s a new year. I’ve already started to do things a little differently – set up a new theme here on the blog, and added a button at the top of the page so you can follow me on Patreon if you’d like. There will be new stuff on the Patreon coming soon, as I’m …
(writing/personal) Pokemon Go!
Posted on July 11, 2016
Yes, I’ve gotta catch them all too. It’s fun, and I need some fun in my life. Besides, it’s something hubby and I can do together. And it’s good for us. I’m Team Yellow (aka Instinct) and if you want to find me, I’m CassieHobbes. I’m also recommitting to writing (again). I’ve discovered …
(personal/writing) Writing in the wind
Posted on February 3, 2016
I’m currently sitting in a comfy chair in an infusion room at UMass Memorial Hospital in Worcester, with an IV in my arm, waiting for my next Remicade infusion. It’s raining outside, and as I’m on the 6th floor, I have a lovely view of the parking lot, and the rain. (Hey, at least it’s …
Trials and Tribulations, or why can’t Val update a blog on a regular basis?
Posted on June 10, 2015
Of course, this could be titled “Why can’t Val do anything on a regular basis?” I seem to have issues with regularity, and I wonder why. It could be that somewhere in my dim, distant past, something linked “a regular routine” with “boring” and I HATE boring with a fiery passion. And yes, I …
