With the exception of making my broccoli cheese soup, today has not happened as expected. My son often teases me that I need to write a blog with a future view, meaning that I write it as if it were present, but I'm actually writing about what I believe I'll be writing tomorrow. Then, the … Continue reading Confusion of days made me tired
Rain today has given a reprieve from the heat. I went out a little after sundown and took a look at my garden. Everything is stretching upwards like little sun babies enjoying the moisture the clouds are bringing. It was beautiful. A thunderstorm moved by last night and kept me awake a little longer than … Continue reading Meatloaf for a chilly day
I almost didn't go for my ride this morning because of things that happened, but I decided to go anyway. I even added in another block. At least today didn't feel like I had bricks in my pockets, not that it was "easy." In my garden, I have eggplant which are nearly ready. My tomatoes … Continue reading Update on the daily page goal
Another bike ride this morning. It was hard to make myself do it, as expected. During the whole short ride up the hill (with a total altitude change of 14 feet), I kept wondering who put bricks on me. Then I hit the downhill stretch and felt on top of the world. Woo hoo! My … Continue reading Riding with bricks
I started my day today with a bike ride. I didn't go far, just around a few blocks. My watch says it was just over half a mile. But that's not the point. Me getting out and getting some exercise in while it's cool is what I need to be doing. I keep think of … Continue reading Broccoli harvest
I was nearly asleep last night when I heard cats fighting outside. I was pretty certain that Bella was inside, but I got up to go check. She was inside and none of the kung-fu cats were mine. Thankfully. But then I couldn't get back to sleep. Last night had nothing to do with me … Continue reading It started with kung-fu cats
I spent the day writing. I finished several more pages in Siva's story and got very close to the scene I'd written earlier. As much as I like what I had envisioned for the scene, I may end up redrafting it rather than trying to stitch in the earlier one. My characters have changed so … Continue reading Letting go to get the energy back
If today was a plot, it would've had a couple twist in it. Let's just say I had plans. Plans which I tried to cancel because of the heat, but then started to happen, but were killed due to wasps. Yeah. I went out for lunch/ice cream with my son and his girlfriend and got … Continue reading What bugs me
I took a trip to Twin Falls today. It's been forever since I went grocery shopping for more than just a few things and my empty refrigerator was beginning to show it. I have lots of veggies (from my garden), but running low on other staples. I also had several other errands to run. I … Continue reading A slice-of-life day
I cut a brilliant yellow squash from my garden and chopped it up with some zucchini for dinner tonight. Those slices are about 3 inches wide. I cut the larger ones in half. I thought about adding in some onion, but didn't. Merlin loves cooked squash (and baby carrots) and I thought I'd share some … Continue reading Dinner and a thunderstorm
