New release coming

My current work-in-process keeps getting longer and longer. It’s getting there in baby steps, but it’s going up the stairs. I’m hoping that by tomorrow or at least by the end of the weekend, I’m going to have a new short story and audio posted to my website. One down and a bunch more to … Continue reading New release coming

Slow baby steps

I’ve been working on several things today, moving slowly, but making progress on some projects. Baby steps. Again. But I’ve got to get moving once more. Cheers.

I went down the hill

Not without a lot of fear, I went out cycling by myself today and went down the mile-long hill where I had my crash. Believe me, I am still holding myself in the “lucky to be alive” camp. I do occasionally have pain in my head from where it impacted; it feels like skull pain, … Continue reading I went down the hill

Fit

Diminish. It’s a word that has been on my mind lately. I had an image come to me last week of a square peg trying to fit into a round hole. The only way that it can be done is to reduce the square peg until it is smaller than the hole. How do you … Continue reading Fit

Rounding out the weekend

I am wiped out. Took another 5 mile bike ride today. At least my brain wasn’t screaming at me the whole way like it was yesterday. There was a moment going over a layer of sand that had me nervous, but overall I felt like I was more confident. Also did shopping and that was … Continue reading Rounding out the weekend

Back on the horse

I got on my bike for the first time since the accident today. My phone holder also took a hit in the accident. Here you can see that it got bent. Proof that I really did do something to flip the bike. Things on both sides of the handle bars got damaged. I really don’t … Continue reading Back on the horse

And we’re off

I’m off on my first fun day. Tonight, I will be going out to dinner and the to see Into the Woods out on by one of the Shakespeare troupes. I’m so excited! That might even deserve two or three exclamation points. (Grin) Tomorrow, there will be bike rides and hopefully some farmers markets and … Continue reading And we’re off

A changed mindset

I haven’t been able to accomplish anything today but that’s because I’ve been getting ready for this weekend. I’m going to do something highly unusual. Instead of going out on my own escape adventures, I’m going to hang out with friends and family. Since we all know how selective I am about spending my time, … Continue reading A changed mindset

A chance

I am enjoying painting on Bristol board. I’ve finished three paintings this month. Two of them are 9″x12″ and the other is a 6″x9″. Not very large, I know, and it’s not even very many paintings, but I’ve been enjoying them nevertheless. The nebula painting from yesterday is one of them. I love the way … Continue reading A chance

Sneak peek of space

Short blog tonight. A sneak peak at a space painting never before seen. It’s still taped down and has been for a while. Someday I will remove the tape and see what it really looks like finished. Today is not that day though. (grin) Cheers.
