Friday’s Physical and Other Stuff
It went fine, and the results are in. Or, more correctly, the lab reports are in and available on the website, but, not being a doctor or a tech, I can't read them. So I'm waiting for a translation from my doctor. 🙂 I'm scheduled for the usual mammogram--talk...
Making Friends with Murphy
That seems to be the only option, since Murphy's Law is running the show these days, at least here on the Triple L. 🙂 Nothing big, thank heaven, just things like having to stop everything, go downstairs and hunt up batteries for my wireless keyboard just when I'm...
The One Where the Computer Eats A Morning’s Work
Zounds! I was doing so well yesterday, working away in my new office, and suddenly the computer gulped down my revisions! For a while there, it looked as though I'd actually lost EVERYTHING, though some of it was saved on other computers. First impulse: have a...
The One Where Linda Prays for a Woodpecker
OK, so you all know that Woodie (Woodena?) Woodpecker has been driving me crazy for days, right? Lately, as my quick-witted mother would say, it's been a short drive. Woodena seemed determined to build her nest inside the metal chimney (whatever happened to making a...
A Productive Monday!
Even though I had to pick up my meds--this is something I THOUGHT I had to do personally but, thank heaven, I was wrong--I got some writing done! Back home, I went straight into my wonderful new office and finished a chapter ! Yeehaw! I'm loving this book. My...
The Case of the Vanishing Week
They say time flies when you're having fun--well, it ALSO flies when you're coping with minor health issues and Murphy's Law Unchained. 🙂 We are still enjoying fantastic weather, and as I write this, in my new office, I can look out and see part of the pasture,...
And the beat goes on….
I seem to be in the mood to quote songs today. It is SO beautiful and sunny out, and the tulips and daffodils are frolicking in celebration. Yorkie-Bernice got a much needed bath, since it's warm outside, and this morning, Larry the Canadian Wrangler found a quail...
Where do the mermaids stand?
Today's blog title comes from a story told by Robert Fulghum, the author of "Everything I Need to Know, I Learned in Kindergarten", and I think a lot of us may identify with it. It seems Mr. Fulghum and some assistants were casting a Christmas pageant, the Nativity,...
This week’s winner…….
........is Hilda 🙂 Congratulations!
Off to Point Roberts
I'll be in Point Roberts, visiting a friend and doing a workshop to raise money for the Point Roberts library. I need this small vacation very much, and I will try to blog at least once while I'm away.
Murphy’s Law Runs Amok
🙂 When everything that can go wrong DOES go wrong, all I can do is say, "Thank You, God ." The bathtub situation seems to be under control--and now the hot water heater has gone out. I've decided to be grateful for that, too. 🙂 I mean, surely this is good for my...
Night Blog
Today was a good writing day--which is why I waited until tonight to write this blog. 🙂 The renovations continue to be challenging. The hot/cold handles for my bathtub arrived, and they fit. HOWEVER, the sprayer and the faucet do not, and must be returned,...
