Long, long ago I was watching Johnny Carson and he had on Jimmy Stewart. Yes, I’m that old. Anyway. This was before TCM, probably before cable TV and so definitely before I had the chance to see many of the wonderful classics. Back then the classics that would play on the 3-5 channels we gotContinue reading “Charmed, I’m Sure”

Sunday Sunday
Actually not so much. Finishing painting. Since I painted 1/2 the floor as well as the walls a Magic Eraser and I have a date today. That’ll be fun. Then it’s get ready for the school/work week. I was pretty off beat this week for posts. So I’m going to take a little more timeContinue reading “Sunday Sunday”
And So It Goes
If you can’t tell this was when the crazy began it’s long crazy march through our lives. It’s quaint the things I worried about then. Toilet paper and cancelled vanity appointments. I feel like those days were like the movie Independence Day. Now we’re in Mad Max stage. I don’t even want to think aboutContinue reading “And So It Goes”
Frenching
We interrupt this blog for a Friday afternoon cocktail. The French 75 1 part gin 1/2 part fresh lemon juice 1/2 part simple syrup 3 parts champagne Combine together in clinky glasses. See you on the other side people.
Organize This
I’m in full Maria Kondo swing. This is funny because I have never, not once, watched her show or seen what she does in action. But I have heard about her so I do know she’s an organizer. And maybe I’ve just insulted all Kondo-ites with that over simplification. But nothing she’s doing is newsContinue reading “Organize This”
Marketing Blitz
As I proofread and put the final nails in this WIP, I’m trying to figure out how to market. I do plan to spend a little money. Buy some advertising. I may start dropping some quotes other eye catchers to get people interested. I’ve never sent out my books for professional reviews from genre sites/publicationsContinue reading “Marketing Blitz”
Drop Some Knowledge
My oldest child is really artistic, so much. They animate and act and dance. They are also really athletic. Most sport have come naturally to them. So what I’m about to write is in deference to the fact that they have all the tools they need to be successful in life. They are however alsoContinue reading “Drop Some Knowledge”
Fool Me Once
I saw someone post something like ‘you get one shot to lose my trust then it’s gone’. I almost replied with ‘yeah me too but you get like 3-20 years of repeated offenses and then I might get serious about ghosting you and giving you the cold shoulder’. I’m an easy target. I’d like toContinue reading “Fool Me Once”
That Summer Wind
A quiet Sunday here. Clearing out a room. Starting my painting project. This week the kids will go 2 days on 2 days virtual and then 1 day the entire school will be virtual. I don’t know what I’m going to do for those 2 days they aren’t here. Work of course. Some of myContinue reading “That Summer Wind”
V to the SS
So the stork one – I didn’t want to go the obvious baby route and I knew nothing about storks other than that. I don’t usually have time to research the word. I just go with what my gut is telling me or the definition. I did this time and found out storks mate forContinue reading “V to the SS”
