You know, I think one of the things I miss most about Diane Rehm retiring is that now my Fridays do not consist of two hours of the Weekly News Roundup. She used to do an hour of domestic news, and then an hour of international news, and it rounded out my week nicely. NPR, …

(personal/writing/food/health) Yes, I can eat salads – in short, a month on Whole30 with Crohns
Posted on February 4, 2018
On January 4, 2018, I started my second attempt at a Whole30. I had made it 9 days in September before my guts rebelled, but I was determined this time (and better prepared, to be honest), and I completed the 30 day reset on February 2, 2018. I’m in the re-introduction phase now, to see …
(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, …
(personal/writing) Why I’m saying goodbye to Patreon
Posted on December 10, 2017
I deleted my Patreon page tonight. I did it because with the new fee structure, and the changes going on in my life currently, I didn’t feel it was fair to my patrons (most of whom were at the $1 a month level) to continue. I don’t disagree with why Patreon did it – …
(writing/personal) Updates of all kinds
Posted on April 9, 2017
Today is a writing day, and that’s a good thing. I need to get back to a routine before I go back to work in a month, and I need to get this book done. I’ve also done a few housekeeping things that I wanted to let people know about. I’m deleting my LiveJournal …
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 …
