Seriously, it has. After last weekend’s hectic rush, this weekend sauntered by slowly, and I really appreciated it, despite the fact that the van decided to die on Thursday. Kate came up Friday night and Saturday morning we were off – first to Carter Hill to get cider donuts, apple cider and caramels. We also …

(personal/writing/to-do) Day 3 of Vacation and I feel…tired
Posted on August 8, 2012
Vacation can be exhausting! Especially if you go somewhere. Granted, we only went to Worcester for a few days, but sleeping in a strange bed, eating terribly (pizza and soda and chips and CRAP), and hanging out until all hours of the night is fun and tiring. I feel like my brain is full of …
(personal/to-do/writing) Another Sunday comes…
Posted on July 29, 2012
It seems like Sundays are the only days I blog. Which isn’t good, but hey, it’s better than complete radio silence, right? I’m trying. Vacation comes up next week – I’m planning on one day of just writing, nothing else. But I have to get through this week first. I’m reading a couple of interesting …
(personal/to-do) Sunday wakes up late and satisfied
Posted on July 22, 2012
Yep. I slept in today. 11:30, everyone. It was AWESOME! My hubby rocks my socks. I really needed to sleep in. Today I have lots of stuff to do. I’m working overtime all week, which means I’m leaving by 8:15 every morning, and not getting home until after 9:30 pm. Bleah. So I need …
(personal/to-do/writing) NOT DEAD!!!
Posted on June 24, 2012
Really. I’m not. Even though I haven’t posted in like a month. Life has just been – well, it’s been life. However I’m finally over the walking pneumonia and the residual exhaustion, and I’m refocusing on certain things: family, my house, and my writing career. I’m exploring some things. I’m changing some things. I’m rediscovering …
(personal/to-do/writing) Sunday is a recharge day.
Posted on May 6, 2012
Yesterday, I will admit, I did very little. I fed my parents’ cats. I wrote about 690 words on Forgotten. I signed up for Camp NaNoWriMo. And I watched the Red Sox lose again. *sigh* But today, I have more I want to do. Before we get into that, though, I wanted to let you …
Blessed Beltane to you all!
Posted on May 1, 2012
It’s a wet Beltane, but that’s a good thing – we need the rain, and it smells green and growing outside. I spent my Beltane at the hospital, getting a Remicade treatment, and I slept through it. I’m so tired! But so much has happened in the past week, I’m not surprised! I’m now officially a …
(tgif) The day after…
Posted on April 27, 2012
No writing yesterday on Forgotten yesterday, but I wrote all the emails I needed to (now I just need to actually send them) and wrote the back cover copy for Spells, which I also need to email. By the time I got home yesterday, my hands hurt so badly that I took some muscle relaxants …
(personal/writing) Suck it up, buttercup (or the need to stop looking for excuses)
Posted on April 26, 2012
I haven’t posted much lately. I haven’t really been writing, either – I’ve been stupidly busy, but that’s not an excuse. I was listening to Nathan Lowell’s excellent #tommw podcast (http://www.nathanlowell.org/tommw/) and he talked recently about not making excuses for why he wasn’t writing – the fact that he had to stop doing that and …
(writing/personal) Turning over a new leaf
Posted on April 3, 2012
I’m trying to make myself a little more accountable lately. Hopefully, this time, the change will stick. Miles walked today: .87 (I walked 1.07 miles yesterday, so I’m not sure where I am. I’ll figure it out for tomorrow’s blog.) Morning Pages: Day 63 – I’ve done two full months, and I think it’s finally …
