Lunch, laundry, life

I had to take an hour and do some meal prep. I realized at lunch time that I hadn’t yet eaten anything today. That’s unusual and tells you that I was really happy going about my day, because I typically love to eat at 9 a.m. I have been busy today, not just with creating, … Continue reading Lunch, laundry, life

Making a list

I’ve been busy all morning, but I haven’t gotten much done. Or at least that’s how I feel. I’ve been writing out that “To Do” list I said I needed to create. So far, it takes up one sheet of a small legal pad, and that’s all I could think of right off the top … Continue reading Making a list

Schedule continued

This has been a strange weekend, but I suspected that with the start of a new schedule. Now, I am a few minutes away from starting my first Sunday shift. Yes, it feels weird. I have a goal of making myself more organized so that I can use my time the best, especially on the … Continue reading Schedule continued

Light in the eyes

It is amazing the variety of people I get to meet at shows. Last week, I had a woman come up to me and start asking me the smoothest, most gentle questions I’d ever heard. Her energy was pure and calm. As we got to talking, I learned that she was very devout. But she … Continue reading Light in the eyes

Envelope notes

Someday, my kids are going to come across a plethora of wisdom all written on the back of envelopes. I used to think it was my “writer instinct” to grab whatever was at hand to write on. In my case, it’s usually envelopes rather than cocktail napkins. Just the other day, I wrote down something … Continue reading Envelope notes

Already, here it comes

As expected, this new schedule is messing with my head. Best to get it out now. The pets are weirded out too. They have no idea what’s going on and are completely confused. I did get good writing done this morning, then some painting. Doing the creative work hasn’t been the hard part. It’s the … Continue reading Already, here it comes

New magnet

Well, so far for day 1 of my new life, it’s been fun and interesting. Yeah, I think I’m going to like this. We’ll see what happens later today, but for now, I feel amazing. It’s nice to have gotten audio editing, writing, and painting done so far. I even finished a magnet today and … Continue reading New magnet

Change in schedule

I’m still trying to take it a bit easy on my stomach today. It’s definitely not happy, but not as ill as I was last night. Wow. The rest of my day has been interesting. I’m changing my work hours for my “day job” to be a “night job.” It’s going to be a little … Continue reading Change in schedule

I’m sick

Just came on about an hour and a half ago. Temmy is currently trying cuddle and claw massage to make me feel better. Purr therapy should work, right? Not so much. I’m going to rest for a bit and hope it all goes away. Cheers. Update: yes, 6 hours later and I’m feeling much better … Continue reading I’m sick

Updates

Updated the covers on three books today, including a front cover redesign for Quest for the Three Books. We’ll see if that does what I want it to do. Now I just have to get the rest of the series formatted this way too. Updating a book takes a lot of work. Even when I … Continue reading Updates
