Hello, Monday Morning
We're having another overcast day here in Spokane, but I don't mind. It's the kind of day when one might put a pot of split pea soup on the stove, light the fireplace, and give thanks for warmth and shelter and plenty (often too much) to eat. The dogs are snoozing,...
Friday Again?
I started the new book yesterday! YES. "Creed's Honor" is underway, and I will be forging on.There was a blog clog yesterday--between the excitement of starting another story and a fairly routine doctor's appointment, I just plain spaced it out. I'm having a ball...
Hair Emergency Handled
As I've mentioned, this is a catch-up week for me. I'm doing a lot of things I put off while I was finishing the book. Yesterday, I wrote up a quite extensive outline for Book 2, "Creed's Honor", and sent it off to my beloved editor, and then headed for the hair...
Another Beautiful Day
Fall has always been my favorite season, at least here in my home state of Washington. There aren't many leafy trees on the "ranch"--in my mind, 30 acres isn't a ranch--but the drive to Northport, around endless curves in the mighty Columbia River, is breathtaking...
Good Morning Everybody!
Welcome to Monday. I'm happy to be here, aren't you? :)It was a quiet weekend here--just what I needed. I didn't get much reading done, but I did some art work and some grocery shopping and a LOT of thinking about the new book.I'm off to California next month to speak...
Late Start
I admit it. I was out on the town last night--so to speak--Sylvia Brown appeared at the casino out in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Since the place is in the middle of nowhere, 'out on the town' would be stretching things.It was a fun evening, and very entertaining. Whatever...
Pedal Blog
Believe it or not, I can now exercise while I blog! I bought a nifty little elliptical machine from QVC (you KNOW I love gadgets) and I placed it under the desk where I'm writing this entry--and I'm pedalling away even as we "speak".Still celebrating around here--"A...
Finished!
"A Creed in Stone Creek" is finished, as of today, and I must say, as many obstacles as I had to surmount this time around, I wouldn't change a thing. (Okay, maybe I could have lightened up on the creative angst a little!) But I'm a firm believer that, most of the...
My Face is Red!
I promised to blog yesterday, and then I didn't. YIKES. What was I doing???Well, I had a doctor's visit to make, and I guess that just filled up my whole head. Nothing serious, so nobody worry. 🙂 (Sally Jean and Mom, this means YOU.)Of course, since I was already out...
Watch This Space
No blog today--my wrist is acting up and I have tons of work to do.Be back tomorrow, I promise.
D.I.E.T. news-An Update
I've just passed the 35 pound mark! Yeehaw! I'm still using the prescribed supplements and the special drops, but I've tweaked the eating plan a little. The Weight Watchers way always works for me--so I'm transitioning over to that. I need more variety, bottom-line,...
My Weekend
Was very quiet. Thank God.My wrist is still sore, and I tire easily, but I'm happy to say that I'm better every day.On Saturday, I was zonked. I made a quick dash to the grocery store--what beautiful, colorful, bountiful places supermarkets are!--and wrote for a few...
