I’m taking a moment to share an update. The Scribes was cancelled yesterday due to the extreme cold, so I didn’t get to read Chapter 6 or get any feedback. I was a little disappointed not to make progress forward and not to see my friends and go out to eat, but this kept everyoneContinue reading “Still Working”

It’s my week off again, which is the only time I have to write. I just finished a grueling work week as many others have too, due to the winter storm and super cold temperatures. The talk of the town has been what type of snow blower do you have? I actually like mine aContinue reading “Finally Back After the Holidays”

It’s been another week of Christmas with decorating, cooking, going to parties, and I feel way behind. I’ve probably been doing too much genealogy stuff. I just find it fascinating. This week I discovered a cache of photos on another website. I’ve been researching my ancestors from Wales. I am 1/8 Welsh and had noContinue reading “A Friend”

I have been taking a couple of weeks off from my blog and writing. It’s probably been close to two months since I have written. The holidays strike again. After my Thanksgiving I had to work, leaving things at the house rather a mess. I am now on a 3 week break from work. IContinue reading “Clean Up”

I am running late tonight, very late, for getting this out. My father and stepmother are in hospice and don’t get out much. I ran my father over to my brother’s house to see his train room, which is enormous–bigger than some people’s houses. Anyway, I think it does him a lot of good toContinue reading “Blogging”

The weeks go by so fast. You are probably all thinking that. For me, this is Thanksgiving week. I work 12 hour shifts all week next week including the actual day. I won’t be alone. Because of that, my family and I will celebrate the holiday on Sunday this week. I will be cleaning andContinue reading “Thanksgiving Week”

With much regret, I tell you I have gotten no writing done this week. I didn’t expect that I would. I still have a lot of cleaning to do now that the pond is done and most of the outdoor work will be put off until spring again. I went out tonight, after a 12Continue reading “No Writing”

Time to get ready for the holidays. I think it will be difficult to get back to my rewrite. I need to get the house cleaned for Thanksgiving. We will have more guests than usual as my sister and my niece and her family have all agreed to come. But we all enjoy the fellowshipContinue reading “Holiday Cheer to Holiday Work”

It’s a great day because the pond is done. After dividing them, I put 15 pots of waterlilies back in. I transferred 4 fish from the upper pond. It was so dark when I got home from work that I couldn’t see them, alive or dead. I will have to move a few more. ButContinue reading “Pond is Done”
