Cowgirl in the Big City
I'm having the best time. Yesterday's lunch was at a restaurant called Boulevard, with a view of the Golden Gate and lovely, light, beautifully presented food. How could I have forgotten to mention that there was a third favorite person present, Diane Moggy. Diane is...
The City by the Bay
I can see why Tony Bennett would leave his heart in San Francisco. It's a lovely place.Except for a delayed bag, the travel angels answered my prayers for a hassle-free day. I had a dinner scheduled for last night, with my publicist, Nancy Berland, and her gang. We...
Oh, What a Day I’ve Had!
First thing this morning, I get an unnerving phone call--on my unlisted number.Then I find out someone has been shopping at Walmart and Home Depot--in Florida, no less--using my credit card info.One of the fire alarms went off this afternoon and terrified my poor...
Another Trip
Tomorrow morning, early, I will be squired to the airport for a trip to San Francisco. I'm unofficially attending RWA (Romance Writers of America). I say 'unofficially', because I'm not actually registered for the conference. This year, I'm just meeting with certain...
What I Did This Summer
Well, okay, today.I had the best of intentions, but the fact is, I ended up puttering in my studio all day. I never even got out of my pajamas!Now, I've taken some good-natured ribbing for calling my little heaven-on-earth a 'studio' instead of a craft room. Here's...
Unfinished Furniture/Unfinished Me
My first projects have arrived--a dresser, a chest for stashing Christmas and birthday gifts I buy throughout the year, and a dear little cabinet. I'm not exactly sure what the latter will hold, but I couldn't resist it.The anti-clutter campaign continues. I'm trying...
End of the Feng Shui Nightmare
Or, at least, the beginning of the end!Now that the downstairs space is clear, I was able to move my ATC/collage gear (aka "mess") off the kitchen table! Whoopee! Now I can eat, journal and read my Tarot cards again!I am SO sensitive to energy, and with all the...
On the Mend
I'm feeling better, so now I can stop boring all of you with symptoms!Very exciting things are happening. There is going to be a short video of the Creed brothers available soon--you'll be able to click a link and see those three delicious cowboys for yourself. (Be...
Still Lazy
I've got some kind of bug, I think, or I'm just tired--travel is always stressful, especially at this time of year. I love getting where I'm going, being there, and being home, but the part involving security lines, crowds of angry people, cancelled flights,...
Those Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Days of Summer
I'm either worn to a frazzle or just plain lazy. I'm not sure which.I worked on TYLER yesterday, and that really felt good.The weather is beyond marvelous.It seems the hurrier I go, the behinder I get. :)I'm off to spend a few hours in Stillwater Springs, Montana,...
The Land of Enchantment
I'm back--after an extra day spent cooling my heels (and my temper) in Albuquerque, due to airline incompetency--and considering the many gifts of my trip to Santa Fe.A friend-of-friends, David Cartwright, generously put us all up in his incredibly beautiful hilltop...
Still Showing Up
Sometimes, showing up is the best I can do. 🙂 Even if it's late.I'm off to Santa Fe tomorrow, and when I get back, I'll have stories to tell.The weather is so beautiful--it makes me catch my breath.I've been doing art therapy, big-time. ATCs. Collages. Some art...
