It’s occurred to me that I’m not really an unhealthy eater (although I certainly can be), but I’m not capable of dieting enough for weight loss. So I’ve been trying to watch what I eat while exercising myself to death. After a few days of crunching numbers and seeing what’s possible, my goal is toContinue reading “My new goals”

Poor Aunt Linda!
My memoir has hit a snag, but I’m hoping it’s nothing major. I sort of had to jump from late high school to life after college, because nothing from that timeframe really fits into the theme of the memoir. At least, nothing I can remember. I’ve got great anecdotes from that time, but they reallyContinue reading “Poor Aunt Linda!”
Will she ever clean her room?
I’ve been working very hard on my memoirs. I’ve already written 26,000 words (out of a goal of 75,000) in under a month. The memories are flowing like a fine merlot. Not that I’ve ever drank merlot, but we do have some Kentucky bourbon downstairs. I keep listening to Duran Duran’s “Come Undone“, which I’mContinue reading “Will she ever clean her room?”
On hold.
I feel like my life has been on hold in some ways. I’ve been working hard to clean my room (it’s a disaster zone up here), and so I haven’t had any chance to read my self-help books yet. However, I have been working on my memoirs every day. Talk about dismal and bleak! I’veContinue reading “On hold.”

I wake up and go to the local pastry shop. Why, God, why? I’m sure that starting the day withContinue reading “Goals for August!”
Great news! And misery.
It’s been a hard few days (yesterday and so far today) for reasons that I’m sure are temporary. Yesterday, I was an agitated mess, because: I couldn’t work on my woodworking. I’ve got some items coming from Amazon later today, and not yet having them ground the project to a halt. I was waiting allContinue reading “Great news! And misery.”
Random musings of happytimes days and procrastinating on shower time!
I don’t think I’ve blogged for a while, and today feels like a lazy day. There are things I want to do, but they’d require me to take a shower first, and taking a shower can be a huge production. Floss and brush my teeth, lay out clean clothes, coax myself into the water… Yeah.Continue reading “Random musings of happytimes days and procrastinating on shower time!”
