Turn the Page

That has to be Bob Seger’s best song.  I do think Bob is one person (and Bruce Springsteen is another)I would go see in concert though I’m not a big concert person.  Seger and Springsteen are singers who can still stoke my imagination – get your mind out of the gutter - their songs hold so [...]

Amazing

It is only 35 degrees outside – I’m freezing.  It is supposed to get up a lot warmer today – originally said mid-50’s but now it is high 40’s predicted.  I’m sick of them never being able to forecast the weather better.  Why do they get paid so much money if it is an “educated guess” when [...]

Sales

Well, the sales frenzy has begun for Black Friday.  I was at Wal-Mart earlier and they were expecting crowds start as early as midnight though a lot of the sales don’t start till 5am.  There was already one person in line waiting for some fantastic deal that starts at 5am in the electronics department.  I [...]

Only Time…

I have that song in my head by Enya – don’t know why.  That reminds me, I need to charge my mp3 player for my trip tomorrow.  My son is also charging his AND he is bringing his laptop so that will be good.  I doubt he’ll get a wireless signal out in the country [...]

Aye Maties

My sister informed me that I’ve been home all day and haven’t written a new post so here it goes:
I have been rearranging furniture to make room for the Christmas tree, presents, and train on the floor in front of the window.  It has not been easy and my lower back is really hurting.  I [...]

Worms

Have I ever mentioned that I do not like worms? I hate them.  They are slimy, slithery things that make me want to gag.  I prefer snakes to worms any day of the week – snakes may slither but they generally aren’t slimy.   
Nothing ruins my walks with the dogs like worms.  I can’t relax and [...]

People

I am fortunate to have a friend who can always make me laugh.  We can get together and in minutes be laughing so hard people think we are a little kooky.  We can laugh at very simple things and can change a blue day to a sunny one in a blink of an eye.  Even [...]

After Midnight Again

Well, I’ve spent hours typing and working on my story.  As of a few minutes ago, I am still almost 4,000 words behind BUT I am more confident I can catch up now.  The story is moving a little bit faster again but still has such a long way to go.  Part of me wishes [...]

OK So I Was Wrong

I have more like 7,000 words to get done – hope to get most of that done later today before another days worth gets added in.  I have 31,083 words so far so am firmly past the halfway mark.  Course, I’m way past the halfway mark on time too.  My goal is to be done [...]

Deadlines Suck

So here I worked to get up to today’s deadline words for NaNo and was really impressed with my word count…until the clock flipped over to the new day and the word count went up again.  Now I am way behind again – I was about 4,000 words behind so now I’m 5800 again.  It [...]
