Call Me Crazy

You wouldn't be the first.  🙂 When I first started to get active physically, I had to basically force myself.  Ride the exercise bike.  Walk around the pasture a few times.  Etc.  Since the scale at Weight Watchers wouldn't budge (not in a downward direction, that...

Again, heartfelt thanks for all your sweet words of condolence.  As a friend said, when I sent her a picture of Bernice, "If soul had weight, that pup would be the size of Mongolia."  So true.  She was a spiritual giant, packed into an 11 pound body.  🙂  A number of...

Various and Sundry Things

Judging by the comment section, it seems to be time I updated everybody on the Hallmark project currently in the works. Some time ago, Hallmark purchased the rights to my Big Sky series, with a plan to make a TV movie revolving around the characters.  If the movie is...

Hello from the Summer Slacker

My only hope is that all of you are slacking off a little bit, too.  Otherwise, I will be consumed by guilt.  🙂 I had a good day at Weight Watchers yesterday; down 1.4 pounds.  YES!  At long last, I seem to be headed in the right direction again.  As I've probably...
