First off, I want to say welcome to my new little niece, Felice, who was born at 1:37 this morning. I love you already and I’m going to work so hard at being your favorite aunt! (grin) It snowed here in Oklahoma and too many people are complaining. This weekend was magical. We got to…

I’ve Been a Busy Girl
Still trying to get this online marketing research done because next week, I’m only writing, baby. That’s right, I won’t be answering phones or Instant messages — not that I do. I never remembered to turn it back on with this new computer. Oops. Email me if you think I’ve been ignoring you. So, I…
Milton Rogovin
I am in love with the work of Milton Rogovin. Years ago, I bought this book. It’s one I go back to often because it showcases photographs of people over four decades. It also tells the most fascinating and heartbreaking stories of their lives. Every single time my father is here, he asks for this…
This Family Needs a Break
Well, my teenager has a very, very bad case of chicken pox. She’s had them before so color me shocked when I took her in this morning. I found a fiddleback spider in the laundry hamper last night and was seriously worried this was from a bite. Yesterday around six p.m., she had two spots….
Will be Getting Back
Hi all, sorry for the long time between posts. I’m battling a health issue that has me taking so many antibiotics, I’m nauseous all the time. Two weeks of 8 pills a day! But in the end, years of problems will be solved, so it’ll be worth it. So, I’ll be back soon with an…
Juiced
So, today I’m sitting in Barnes and Noble, writing in this cute little 1.99 notebook I’d just bought along with what looks like three really good books. I’m not reading them — I’m writing. Dreck, but writing nonetheless. I’m drinking a Juiced Tea by Tazo. Yum. Mind is wandering because some young guy is checking…
It’s All About the Music Today!
Today, I’m working on the house and playing some of my fave CDs. I have one of those nifty speaker systems that is built into every room so I can listen anywhere. It’s up loud. Yeah. You will come to find upon further visits to my blog, that my taste in music is all over…
Mountain View and SETI
Before I got distracted again, I was pondering the answer to the great Mountain View, California debate. I have this blog and two online stores with site meters. While it’s somewhat fun to look at the sad numbers and try to come up with marketing ideas, it’s more fun to see the locations of the…
Great Fantasy Music
Not feeling so hot today. Think my children might have brought home a nice flu bug so I’m taking it easy, drinking tea, that sort of thing. But, I’m hoping I’ll rest up and write something fantastic tonight. I seem to hit my peak at night when it comes to writing, which really bites because…
Launch of the Write Snark
Nothing like that first blog. I’ll admit, I’ve put it off. Partly out of fear that I’ll fall back on wearied cliches. Can I come up with interesting one way conversations on a consistent basis? And why would anyone be interested? heh But, I do tend to have a warped view of things. Fellow writers…
