An unforeseen project

outhouseIf you’ve been stopping by my blog, you’ll know I’ve been knee-deep in home improvement and the assorted mania that goes with it.


Upon discovering the bathroom sink was a ticking time bomb, we have no option but to replace it. I’m left to wonder how porcelain sinks from 100+ years ago manage not to rust through while my 30-year-old fixtures are crumbling into dust. It must be the properties of the iron.

So with this new and unforeseen project, the comedy of errors begins anew. We’ll finish this bathroom today if it kills us. If not, I’m thinking we brick over the doorways to all three bathrooms and use the outhouse. It’s a two-seater.

I’ve temporarily cut back on blogging cleanfor my put-my-life-back-in-order spring cleaning — a project known far and wide as the Annual Purge. Thanks for stopping by even if there isn’t much new to see. I have no time for blogging right now, but the extinct word of the day is updated daily.


I’ll be blogging full bore in April with the A to Z Challenge. Topics will mostly cover fascinating aspects from history with a few science wows thrown in for good measure. I have a healthy sense of wonder. I promise your imagination will fly with mine. :)

My imagination is already flying and I haven’t written my posts yet! What a wondrous world.


Coming soon to my satellite blog ~

Authors_in_Bloom-300x250For ten days in April I’ll be participating in the Authors in Bloom blog hop over on http://calliopeswritingtablet.blogspot.com/ . This blog hop is all about showing the many facets to an author’s life. One of the more unusual things I’ve done in my life with this man of mine was lead wild foods programs for Chicago’s Field Museum.

For this event I’ll be sharing my recipes. I hope you stop by. You may have delicious ingredients waiting in your backyard.

Download your copy of my free 1st and 2nd chapter sampler, I write what I’d like to read so my stories are rich in realistic/historically correct dialogue and factual information. My multidimensional characters are the sort you’d welcome into your home to share a cup of tea or a beer. Pssst… I wouldn’t open the door to the villains…
