Let it go...

The title of this post is the name of a perfectly lovely song that has been over-played, over-exposed, and over-everything else. It's also the phrase Duane used to me yesterday--several times--when I complained about changing times. I despise the time change. I don't care whether we're on Eastern, Central, or Southwest Lilliputian time, just leave it alone! My husband, on the other hand, doesn't mind the time change nearly as much as he minds the fact that I just won't let it go.

Ramblings of a Headache,,,

I woke up with a headache. Not a huge headache, just one in my forehead that seems to be affecting the way I think. Focus.

It was lovely there - mid-seventies, light breezes and plenty of ocean and beach to look at...you know when I wasn't chasing RadioMan and bebe around. :)

Whatcha workin' on?

It's Sunday afternoon. We are covered in lots of fluffy new snow that makes the first of March look like December 25 should. I've been writing today, though I'm about to give it up because my mind seems to be of the marshmallow-type consistency that snow looks like. 
          Since I seen to have nothing to say, I thought I'd share a couple of paragraphs from my work in progress. A little lead-in: I've discovered in my own writing and the favo...
