Shoved by the troll, I think
I was shoved (possibly by the troll) into my audio booth today. Well, what to do while I was there but record two chapters. On a Monday. I am really not sure what was up with the universe there, but it happened. Not sure if I should thank the troll for the shove or not. … Continue reading Shoved by the troll, I think

Sunday stops like rain
I woke just before it started to rain this morning. Mostly because Temmy came in and wanted to curl up with me. She did her little kitty stomp around my head to wake me up, then settled in. Then, it started to rain and made her jump. Just as she was about to go inspect … Continue reading Sunday stops like rain

Gravity of thoughts
I’ve been thinking about gravity today. I’ve been thinking about my businesses. I’ve been thinking about life fulfillment. And I’ve been binge watching The Bear. So many good life lessons in that show. With my thoughts, I feel as if I needed the show. I really need to stop the binge though. I’ve been trying … Continue reading Gravity of thoughts

4 year streak
Okay, it’s official. I’ve been writing a blog daily for 4 years. Yes, like last night, I had to roll back the time/date to actually be on the day, but some days have been like that. I’ve (not yet) woken up the next morning and remembered that I needed to post a blog, then backdated … Continue reading 4 year streak

My, look at the time
I keep saying that I’m not going to stay up past midnight, yet here I am again. I’m going to have to roll back my blog post date again to keep my streak. I did not forget. I just worked late, had to cook dinner, then got distracted by some news and had a few … Continue reading My, look at the time

Strange things in the world
A little cherub came and blew my mind tonight. I’ve spent the last 24 minutes trying to come to grips with it, plus more trying to verify. It’s weird how information comes to us. That aside, I knew today was going to be busy and I haven’t yet had a chance to write. I will … Continue reading Strange things in the world

Putting the 24 minutes to use
Best laid plans are always spoiled by the dog. Although Merlin was grumpy this morning, so maybe I should call him a werehound. Best laid plans were spoiled by the werehound. I had 7 of my 24 minute sessions calculated for this morning with some extra time. I thought I’d work a couple sessions, then … Continue reading Putting the 24 minutes to use

Minute by minute
If you’ve followed my blog for a while, you’ve probably seen me talk about things I do to help my productivity and to help me stay focused. I swear, one of them has been the timer. I’m finding that a 24 minute cycle really helps me, and I suspect it’s good for my health too. … Continue reading Minute by minute

Make Temmy happy
No gnomes, fairies, gremlins, or trolls today. I guess they took this Sunday off. Let me tell you how nice that’s been for me. (grin) I got two more chapters recorded today and sent a request about a book setup. I thought I was getting to the end of my novel and that I’d be … Continue reading Make Temmy happy

Bike ride
I dared to take a bike ride today. It’s the first time that I’ve been on my bike in a long time. I’m thrilled to say that my battery was still at full charge and didn’t drop one bit on the five mile ride I took. Shout out to Rad Power Bikes for their awesome … Continue reading Bike ride
