January, here we are again

I am in the throes of January now. I can do this. I did get another layer on a couple paintings last night. These paintings are coming along well. I’ll be starting on the flowers soon. So far, I haven’t gotten any writing done today. I will at least get my minimum words in before … Continue reading January, here we are again

Turning from distractions

I got some writing done today. I kicked myself a little because it wasn’t the first thing of the day — I had breakfast first and I probably could have waited, but it was leftovers and I was hungry so it seemed to make sense. But it led me to a bit of a distraction … Continue reading Turning from distractions

Patreon and newsletter

I realized a few days ago that I hadn’t put up the third and final part of my Fenrir story on Patreon. Whoops! So, I got that done today and declared it the “long-awaited conclusion.” (grin) Then I went and wrote up a newsletter to send. I feel better having done those two things. I … Continue reading Patreon and newsletter

Timeline questions answered

Apparently the crown is not loose. I suppose that’s a good thing. I do, however, have an infection in the tooth beneath and it’s causing the issues. So, now I’m on antibiotics to try to clear it up. Still, I wish we’d just do a root canal and be done with it, but I suppose … Continue reading Timeline questions answered

Creative information

I’ve been fighting with a loose crown the last few days and I have a dentist appointment early in the morning. Frustrating because sometimes it feels fine and others, like right now, it’s awkward in my mouth and sometimes painful. Right now, jut awkward. Earlier today I got some information off to my creativity coach. … Continue reading Creative information

Start by food prep

I went shopping today and have been doing food prep tonight. Since I didn’t get to practice my own cooking last week, it’s good to be getting back to it. I did adhere to nutritional and unprocessed meals as much as I could. I did pretty well. I allowed myself a hamburger today and a … Continue reading Start by food prep

The tired has hit

I spent the morning working on my sales tax. I found out I was missing some book purchases and I also entered a few other purchases. I really need to do my bookkeeping monthly. The cobbler’s children have no shoes. After that was done, the sleepies caught up with me. I had lunch, hoping moving … Continue reading The tired has hit

January to resume soon

Class is finished now. What a great group of writers. I feel like I learned a lot and I had fun networking. I’m so not ready to return to real life, but I know it awaits me. Next goal: survive the rest of January. Cheers.

One more assignment

Nearly done with my class. I have one more assignment to finish and turn in. It’s been a good week of getting out to talk to other writers. Very energizing, but I’m also ready to get back to my own things for a bit. Right now, I better get to the assignment. Cheers.

Story off

I finished the story for my class and ran down for a quick dinner before coming back and spellchecking the story. It’s now off. Time to do a bunch of reading now. My eyes are getting tired, so I’m going to keep my blog short tonight. Cheers.
