Sunday Check-In – Week Two
Whoop! Almost halfway through January already and I can practically smell that summer’s on its way. Okay, that’s a lie—it’s cold and meh here—but a girl can dream. Week Two hasn’t felt as much like getting back on the saddle work-wise as one would hope, mostly as I had a ton of social stuff on. […]

Sunday Check-In – Week One
Oh my Lordy…Week One is gone already! Not sure I have too much to report. I think I spent most of the week lollygagging on Twitter and Facebook at the dumpster fire ( and actual fires) raging in the real world while persuading myself that enough might be enough when it comes to brandy butter. […]

Happy New Year 2020!
We made it. It’s finally 2020 and I’m expecting delivery of my flying car any second now. Aaaany second… The day might be arbitrary in some ways but I think, while the “New year, New Me” thing is a bit trite, it has some merit. much like the way passing through a doorway literally resets […]

End of Year Review 2019 #6
November passed in a blur of public transport. We went to Eastbourne and Andover and Bristol and our feet didn’t seem to hit the ground. I was in a writing frenzy and prepping for the Rainbow Advent Calendar…and did I mention the writing frenzy? It helped a lot that the Word Dragon seemed to be […]

End of Year Review 2019 #5
September and October were kind of…weird, I think. September is always a little odd as it’s kinda the end of the year in some ways. I have my birthday then so it always feels like an ending/beginning of sorts, but with the bulk of the rest of the year being preoccupied with dog shenanigans, it […]

End of Year Review 2019 #4
As much as I was hoping for another long, hot summer like we’d had in 2018, it wasn’t to be this year and though the weather was okay through the bulk of the summer, I was still wearing a sweater when I would have much preferred to be in shorts. But even when the weather […]

End of Year Review 2019 #3
May came and so did the test results for the Word Dragon. The infections were gone, her lesions had cleared up, and there was nothing else to do but wait and see. We started calling her Lazarus and Schrodinger’s Dog and “the dog who lived”. She started to improve a little. I stopped having to […]

End of Year Review 2019 #2
March and April sucked. I had plans, lots of plans. Then the Word Dragon got worse and worse. No diagnosis seemed to make sense and no medications were working. All the vets at the surgery were involved, and so invested in seeing her well. The consultation room got crowded. They gave me print outs of […]

End of Year Review 2019 #1
Hard to believe it’s the end of 2019 already. It only seems like it was January about five minutes ago. The beginning of the year was kinda tricky for me. I knew I had a busy few months ahead so I was working my butt off writing and trying to hit what looked like an […]

Rainbow Advent 2019
It’s Rainbow Advent Calendar time again! Gosh, it comes around so quick. Anyway, today it’s my turn and I have a little something for you that sort of slots quite nicely in between my two Christmas Fixes Everything books. If you haven’t read them yet you can find the links below but you don’t […]
