October 2014 Update
This will be short for there is much to do. We have had a bit of rain and wind here in North Carolina during last week. Hence, why this blog is late. Sorry, but unforeseen circumstances have been a mainstay around here. I have been worried about friends and family. Luckily, I didn’t have to…

Blog for April fools
Yeah, getting fooled is fun. We need to love good jokes and pranks. Creative and smart ones are always the best. It would be easy to get me this week as sleep has continued to be elusive. I’m becoming used to the emptiness and the quietness of the house without Sammy and Gandalf, they are…

I’m done with February. March forward.
This month has been marred with death. My Betta fish died. Not a big deal, they do that a lot, and Flame must have been my 15th or so wet pet. I’ve even found another very pretty Betta to keep the tank lively. However, my beloved African Gray parrot was right on his fins. This…

430am
Note: When I wrote this, I was very raw. I was right at the end of a panic attack when my brain was still not functioning. If you have ever had one, you know what I mean. It takes hours to get things ‘right’ again. The temptation to rewrite and clean it up is unbearable,…

Count those ‘its’
Why are we so very concerned with word count? Really, it is because no one wants to read War and Peace. This isn’t a rant against Tolstoy. I really liked Anna Karenina. I gave W&P a good go at it for about 10 years. I finally gave up after it had been moved to the…

Persons and mud
It’s raining again. The puppy whines from the other side of the gate that keeps his muddy feet in the kitchen. It doesn’t matter right now, even though I wipe his feet every time we come inside from attempted potties in the rain, there is mud everywhere. I have mopped two, sometimes three times a…
