It's funny how I end up here when I get deeply lonely. I'm terrible at making and keeping friends, and I know it's my own fault because I disappear. Run away. I'm not sure it would have come out differently if I hadn't. Internet friendships tend to be fleeting anyway, but I still miss the wyverns after all these years.

A few days ago I was listening to Pandora radio while I was cleaning. Usually if an unfamiliar song comes on that I like I will pull my phone out of my pocket and see what it is but sometimes my hands are too messy or I get caught up in what I'm doing. The other day a song came on and some of the lyrics were something like "I love the way you live ( Read more... )

My husband bought me a laptop computer for our anniversary. He never buys me presents and to just go out and buy a computer... It was weird. Good though. Mostly good. If he'd have asked I would have said no, my old computer is fine. And it was. The battery was awful and I had to stay plugged in all the time but it did what I needed it to do.

This morning I realized I had no idea what the government of my country was like and strangely enough that provided the spark to get me writing again.

I'm stuck at 10k on the current novel.  At first I was making excuses not to write and then I realized that I've gotten this far and still don't have a clue what this book was about.

 I'm still alive. see?

I'm a wimp, a spoiled wimp. Most people deal with these type of things everyday, but I've been a Stay at home mom for so long, I'm not used to life. Friday is a field trip with my youngest daughter (8). Not only do I have to deal with people, I have take care of other people's children AND drive on the freeway. That alone is enough to make me feel ( Read more... )

I was only going to put Flowers aside for a week before looking at it and now it's been two almost. I lost my groove. Shoot. I could never figure out what else to work on that week so I started sewing instead ( Read more... )

When I copied Flowers into Word so that I could print it, I discovered that it was only 20,000 words long. Hah.  I knew it was short because I skimmed a lot but I thought it was longer than that.  Well, no worries, it'll all work out.  I'm not supposed to think about it for at least a week though. Gotta let it get cold in my mind. I do have the ( Read more... )
