Monday is a Monday (Tuesday's a thunder day*)

So it's probably still Monday where most of you are, so I'll get this party started by telling you that the title of this post* is a couple of lyric lines from a very well-known (in NZ) song that was a smash hit here a million years ago, called "Outlook for Thursday" by DD Smash. The next line seems about right for Tuesday here: "With a wind that ( Read more... )

A friend didn't want to complain this week because the weather she was experiencing wasn't as cold as some. I told her "Cold is relative." If it's cold to her, she can still complain.

So be disappointed, complain about not getting the summer you were expecting or wanting, but be thankful that you aren't suffering from the worst things weather has to offer.

We're hunkered down here waiting for snow. I'm actually kind of excited. I don't have to deal with constant snow like I did as a kid so I'm looking forward to it.

As for writing, my words are struggling this month, but I'm hoping to get at least 1500 more before the end of the month. It won't put me at my goal, but it'll get me closer.

If I can get my essay for college done, I think that will help my brain block. Meanwhile I'm toodling with some fanfic so I at least get words.

Stay safe from the winds!

We got hit hard with the cold weather I stayed in as much as I could because I wasn't going out in that extreme cold. I did some not a lot of writing found some WIP to work on including a sequel to a story I have been itching for years to finish. I also re-read some of my favorite fics.

The weather is changing to warmer weather and my migraines were triggered off today but it is supposed to be nice for the rest of the week and next.

Weather here is warmer than is normal, and dryer...so I worry about what the next fire season will be like. On the plus side, so far it is looking like the weather will allow me to get to my mom's 80th birthday next month.

Words are coming along decently...more than I expected for January but less than I'd 'like' to have done. I finished all of my trainings and reports, now there is a grant to work on that's due in March. Taxes are done. Should mean I can focus the weekends more on writing (and trying to avoid as much US political news as possible).

Cold winds during the summer would definitely throw me off my game. As it is, it feels like I'm living in a convection oven when it's windy here during the summer. Anytime your weather is not acting right, you're allowed to complain.

I managed to read over and edit one chapter of my WIP, but that's as far as I've gotten. Hoping to look at chapter 2 during lunch here in half an hour. Cross your fingers.
