Heavy clouds, no rain. Which means I need to water the garden today. I watered the pallet garden last night. I really, really have to find a better way to battle the slugs. But I think I might cave and get slug bait. They are never ending around here.

I had the weirdest dreams last night. I had the hubby is leaving me dream, which happens at ( Read more... )

April 24, 2012 Morning Pages 0753 hrs Cloudy and 55 degrees in Twin Peaks, rain is supposed to arrive later today.

Wow, I have so much to detail here regarding yesterday.

First off I took the dog for a long walk. It was a glorious day and I needed to collect my thoughts for my afternoon battle at the school district. We took the long way ( Read more... )

 I did fairly well on my listmania yesterday. I didn’t walk the dog. I did agility training with her in the backyard. She is so stubborn. I didn’t do Yoga formally. No, because I was catching Bean skipping school and having to get his ass back in class. I have threatened him with no birthday party if this asshatery keeps up. Another proof positive ( Read more... )

November 28, 2011 Morning - and oh boy is it morning - pages

0330 hrs.

Went to bed about 3 hours ago and have laid there listening to my dog pace the floor, weird traffic on my street, coyotes in the fields, the kids get up to pee and MY HUSBAND SNORE IN MY EAR for three hours. Basically everything but goddamn fuckity fuck sleep.

Here I ( Read more... )

My healing warrior story has turned into a revolution story. See, I’m always fighting. Why am I cursed like this? The protagonist - sometimes an antagonist if you look at it from a different perspective - told me, “Listen, sweetie, there are more fights to fight. I can’t get all Dalia Lama yet.” No, she decided to get involved, or moreover be the ( Read more... )

Distracted by dishwasher retrieval logistics, so didn’t get to these pages until now, even though I’ve been quasi awake since 5 a.m. I say quasi because I feel like a Zombie this morning. Come lunch it’s supposed to be a winter wonderland around here.

Yesterday I hated the world. I couldn’t bring myself to write morning pages, because it would ( Read more... )

Took forever to get the wood stove burning this morning. I’ve been awake since 0520 hours. I’ve spent nearly an hour trying to get that frakkin wood going good to generate heat. 37 degrees this morning and by Thursday night we will dip below freezing and the snow will be here on Friday. Although it doesn’t seem like it will stick around long. Fine ( Read more... )

Yesterday’s little adventures courtesy of drama and the writing life ended up not so bad. Money was spent to help the situation - I hope. Not what the plan for the money was initially, but…you do what you have to do.

My research trip to Aberdeen went well. It was great to smell the brackish water. I’ve always been enamored with where the rivers ( Read more... )

A remembrance wish for all the Veterans out there today. I’m late with my pages, because I took the time to go through each one of my friends’ pages and thank them for their service.

I was supposed to march in the Veterans Day Parade and Direct Action today in Seattle; however, I neglected to remember that my children didn’t have school. So Mom ( Read more... )

When I went to bed last night every light in my neighbor’s house was on. This morning the same thing. I’m concerned that something is wrong. He’s an old man - the land my home sits on used to be part of his farm. He’ll tell you it was the best thing he could do to sell this land. He hated farming. He sold it ( Read more... )
