Ugh. Woke up this morning to frost on the ground and the water shut off (power went out at a treatment station). I have a bad feeling about tonight.

But that's tonight! This morning is the...

Happy Halloween everyone!

Well it is here in NJ. I didn't think I'd appreciate the governor moving the date, but seeing how happy the kids are to do 'real' trick or treating today, I think I can...

Happy Halloween!

We're alive and well here and now we have power.

Just stopping by to put up my feet for a second. I've been baking up a... uh... ahem. Well, you get the picture. Our power goes out if someone sneezes and the eye of the storm is supposed to pass...

Belated thanks, Cat in the bag. The family miraculously recovered in time for my eldest's birthday and there was 'cake' for breakfast and cake for dinner. There was insanity and too many gifts. ...

Touching base and TGIF!

Good luck with the snake, Tina. Do you have any wall vents or heaters convenient to a little cold blooded animal by any chance? We lived in an old fashioned place with...

Even though I'm only cooking for the four of us plus a sister in law, I do the whole spread: whole turkey (or two), stuffing, baked sweet potatoes, corn, green beans, biscuits, gravy, and then apple...

TGIF, folks!

Have a nice 'vacation' MsMod.
Glad to hear your eyes is getting better, Jojo.
LadyPain, it's great to hear how your life has improved. It really lifts my day to see it.

As for...

Hello, folks. It's turning out to be an awful Friday here - all bad weather and stress. :(

I have a terrible phobia of paperwork and I just spent all morning applying for Medicaid for my family....

That sounds like a little bit of paradise!

(And happy birthday, jacobtlong, I don't know how I missed it!)

Happy Tuesday!

Congrats on the trip, Tery. Good luck with your husband's job, jacobtlong.

I could use some good thoughts for my sister-in-law. She's been unemployed since she graduated...

YAY! I'll drink some herbal tea to that, and maybe something a little bit stronger, maybe even hot chocolate!!

Morning and :p Monday to everybody else.

It's feeling like autumn in these parts....

Happy Birthday! The world is short people like you who give more than they get!

Because I've learned that I haven't stopped getting migraines, I just started getting 'silent migraines,' which may not hurt, but last all day and prevent me from doing anything.

That's the plan. I'm actually in the process of editing the first novel right now.

Yay! Happy Monday everyone! I'm going to be walking on a cloud all week: I just finished up a first draft on my third novel, clocking in at 540 pages! I think I'm starting to figure out the...

Happy Birthday, Spidey! (And happy Friday everyone else!)

It's a beautiful day out there and it's farmer's market season, so I'm off to party with the farmboys like its 1879! Picnics and ice...

Good Wednesday all!

LadyPain, I'm glad you appreciated that one. All the raccoons around here are suffering from mange and it pains me to see the freaky looking things suffering so (even if they...

Hello, ka-tet, happy Monday (knock on wood...).

Just hoping no one else is enjoying a nice enforced, unpaid vacation courtesy of Anonymous hacking GoDaddy this morning. I'm not sure yet whether...

Morning, ka-tet!

I hope everyone else's morning has been productive and relaxing!

((LadyPain)) Legally unprovable? That's just... insane. I think I understand the old urge to throw boiling...

If it's drain opener (and the old fashioned kind) then it's basically lye, isn't it? At a pharmacy I used to work at we sold "hair relaxer" that was lye based (meant to take the kink out of Black...

Dropping in again... been down the rabbit hole for a bit and moving some bit things around, but everything is good and well here and I'm finally kicking back with some iced coffee!

I hope everyone...

I am happy, but it's bittersweet. A friend of ours died a few weeks ago and his mother just gave us his gorgeous piano. It's sitting across the living room from me now. That makes the second piano...

Maybe I can use this as an excuse to get another book of sheet music and a novel and some books for the kids... I mean, it's at least one book per person, right? RIGHT?? ;)

Oh, yes: keep expanding the Dark Tower series forever! I'll buy a subscription, editions can come out annually like an old school encyclopedia! :love:
