I’m planning a trip to Baltimore to see my foster daughter. We haven’t seen each other in a number of years, so it should be fabulous. I won’t be gone long, less than a week, but we will make great memories together. I sent her photos of the cats. I need to make a listContinue reading “Baltimore”

Work Day
I have started another work week. Always a struggle to get anything done at home on these days. No more writing yet, but a hopeful heart. Someday I will be able to give up my day job. First you dream of going to college and getting a good job, then you dream of being ableContinue reading “Work Day”
Charging Ahead
I got a lot of writing done on Tuesday, before the writer’s meeting on Wednesday. It felt really good to be successful. As you can see, I’m trying to blog more. I’m enthusiastic about getting back into the writing, though I still have a lot of yardwork to finish up. The writer’s group is alwaysContinue reading “Charging Ahead”
Chapter 22
Work is done for another week. I read tomorrow at the writer’s meeting, so it’s time to write again. I doubt I can finish this chapter today, 22, but I will get more done, and maybe… I’m still gardening. My kitchen is still filled with iris. I’m a big lover of iris, which I thinkContinue reading “Chapter 22”
The End of Summer
Too hot for me. I’m ready to be done with summer. It wasn’t a good summer. Toward the end of May we had some effects at work that were the result of new management at the top that can make life an adjustment. My father also started having a lot of health problems and wasContinue reading “The End of Summer”

I have gone back to work on my Lincoln novel. I have begun by researching the court room scene. It is my nemesis. This novel has two courtroom scenes. I’m not at all happy with the first one and am trying to do better on the second. If I’m successful, I’ll rewrite the first inContinue reading “Working”
Halleluiah
I’m on another three-week break, but I have to go to a conference for my day job in the middle of it. So I will be taking it week at a time. I’m hoping to get some writing done this week. My main focus for a while has been getting caught up on the yard.Continue reading “Halleluiah”
Hanging in there
I’m starting my work week tomorrow. I am getting more caught up in the yard. Maybe a third done. It will make my life easier in the long run. Things are more difficult at my day job. Lots of new things happening to keep up on. I’ve made some decisions to cut back on theContinue reading “Hanging in there”
Climax: Chapter 22
I know it’s Friday instead of Thursday, but better late than never. I wrote and finished Ch 21 in time to read at Scribes. The chapter seems to be a success. I have barely started Ch 22, which will require more research. It’s a bit intimidating because it is another courtroom scene and the climaxContinue reading “Climax: Chapter 22”
Last Week Off
My staycation is 2/3 done. Haven’t accomplished as much as I needed to, but I worked hard the whole time. I really enjoyed my visit with family in Indianapolis and seeing iris friend Bonnie. I have cut grass and weeded and worked mostly in the yard. Also did some really needed house cleaning. I workedContinue reading “Last Week Off”
