The other night I watched Anacondas. The second one, with the Blood Orchids. (I was supposed to be writing, but let’s not even go there.) And now I’ve got to rank it up there as the type of movie that drives me absolutely crazy, because it’s got all the elements to be really terrific […]

The part of the house where the fridge used to be is gone. Just gone.
It’s a little scary being in the house when this is going on. I said to the husband, suppose the house falls down when they take part of it away? His answer: Then we don’t […]

I’m really, really good and write all my pages this week, can I please, please have a new website?

Hmmm, that seems to have worked.

If I’m really, really good and write all my pages this week, can I please, please have a book contract?
Pushing my luck, right?
Anyway, thank you to Bekke from DreamForge for putting together […]

Construction started yesterday. Yesterday was supposed to be a nice walk-through of the house (which should have happened a month ago - and I only mention this because it will become relevant later) and an excavation plan was to be made, so foundation digging would start toay.
Movers are hired to come in next week […]

Okay - I’m almost at 60K. I wrote thirty-one pages today. I needed that, because I’m so close to the end, even though I’d already written the actual end a long time ago. It’s the middle and those damned secondary characters that threw me off.
I think we might understand […]

Dear Stephanie,
As your secondary characters, we’re a bit concerned, and we thought it best to bring our grievances to the table. Well, actually, we weren’t sure what to do, but some guy in desert cams passed by a few hours ago and mentioned we try this tactic. So here goes.
We’re not sure what […]

We finally got a date for our house construction - it’s starting Monday. (I HOPE I can lose that Monday, but I have a feeling it won’t happen) And if you’re now asking yourself if you’re going to be tortured for the entire project with the details, the answer is yes. Because if […]

I got up earlier than the husband and the three year old by about two hours. I always forget how nice it is when everything else is so quiet. It almost makes me want to get up that early every day. Almost. But I’m going to have to seriously consider it, […]

What’s everyone doing today? HELLO! You out there? Anyone writing? Yes?
I guess this is the part where I confess I haven’t started. Yet. But the afternoon is young and blogamp is fired up and ready to go. And Word is open too.
As for the other day’s decision making […]

*Update* Sasha sold to Kensington!!! Yay! Been a good couple of weeks around this place!!!
Apparently, I also lost Wednesday. I can’t afford that many days a week. I’m supposed to be organizing. Thinking about what to pack for when the construction starts in a week or so.
I’m amazingly calm. […]

Seriously. Not sure where it went. But I guess if you’re going to lose a weekday, Monday’s the best one to go.
I happened on Rock Star INXS (or whatever it’s called) and I’ve got to tell you, as much as I didn’t want to like it, I did. Mainly because I thought […]

Open up BlogAmp to transfer in new songs. Play new songs. Get distracted by new songs.
Set MinTimer for thirty minutes.
Open Word doc.
Immediately check MinTimer again. Twenty-nine minutes left.
Google lyrics for STP’s Plush for no important reason other than I’m very into that song today. That’s what happens when it’s the song […]

First, prayers to anyone and everyone touched by the events in London. And please send out prayers to Larissa, who’s on hurricaine-watch. Same with PBW.
*UPDATE*
I’m a day behind, but go congratulate Amy K on THE CALL!!!!!
I’ve been tagged by Bonnie for this one:
1. Myself: Only child, married, mom to the […]

Otherwise known as internal conflict. First, my characters were being way too nice to one another. All kissy-huggy sweet. Bleech. Especially because it was the halfway point. Far too early for that much niceness.
And then they were sniping at one another. I don’t like sniping. Fighting, yes, but […]

That’s what I’m talking about today over at Romancing The Blog. Pop over and say hi if you’ve got a chance!:grin:
