    The Life and Times of Napoleon

    Less than a month ago, my family said goodbye to one of our dogs. He was 16 years old and had been losing the battle with a brain tumor since November last year. We knew it was finally time to say goodbye because he would get up and eat breakfast each day and after that… Continue reading

    Hindsight…

    This month has been pretty great so far. I’m taking the time and settling into my new routine for the year. (Just in time for it to change again as my daughter might finally get to attend in person school again, which we are both super excited about). However, as I’ve been working on my… Continue reading

    Interview and Nano #3

    This has been an exciting NANOWRIMO for me. This is my third year participating. I’m loving it again, and I’m glad I decided to join. I am at about 38,000 words so far for the month. In addition to writing like a crazy mad fool, I’ve been busy with some smaller projects. If you missed… Continue reading

    Undecided

    It’s only 10 days till November. I am still undecided if I’m going to participate in NANOWRIMO this year. I love NANOWRIMO! and not doing it leaves me feeling sad. But, this year just doesn’t seem to be the year for it. What do you think? Are you participating? I have so many things I… Continue reading

  • This Year So Far…

    This Year So Far…

    Usually about midway through the year, I sit down and assess where I’m at with my personal goals for the year. I never really got around to it this year because we moved from Kansas to Washington in June, and everything has been utter chaos until recently. So, anyhow, let’s see how I’m doing. These… Continue reading

  • Getting back on track…

    Getting back on track…

    I am running terribly behind with just about everything. We are mostly unpacked with just a few lingering boxes of things I’m not sure if I’m going to unpack floating about. Things are starting to settle for my family. We enrolled our daughter in school, and we’re starting to learn the lay of the land.… Continue reading

    Still Struggling

    Since my last post, things have not gotten any better. This has been the worst move that my family has ever been through. Today, as we were unpacking one of the last boxes we found my coin collection archival box, but it was empty. The movers/packers opened my archival box, which just looks like a… Continue reading

  • Moving

    Moving

    It’s been a while since I’ve posted because my family is moving. I’ve had little time for writing and reading. The move isn’t going to plan. In fact, nothing is going according to plan lately. Instead of being able to make thought out choices, we’ve had to just go with options that we really don’t… Continue reading
