Knitting Saves the World!

on August 30, 2016

Not much to talk about today–it’s been mostly in my head. Seriously–Mondays are pretty busy. Drop Squish off, take dogs for a walk, work/communicate for a few hours, go to aqua, get lunch, pick kids up.  Today we stopped at Staples on the way home, just for a change of pace, and then home, work,… Read More

Falling Asleep at the Computer

on August 26, 2016

Literally. I usually get a day to sleep after a trip, and not so th is time, so I think it’s catching up to me.  Only a few notes from today– *  When I was in Kansas City, DSP had some extra books to send home with me for promo and such, and I’d bought… Read More


Unanticipated Side Effect

on August 25, 2016

Sorry no blog last night. I got back home and in addition to the kids starting school and the other stuff that happens when you’re going for four days, the car was breaking down, my phone is dying (hence, no pictures), and the animals needed to go to the vet. Steve had to go for… Read More


Awards I’ve Earned

on August 23, 2016

Tonight I was sitting at my desk, editing, when Mate asked me if I had a highlighter. Of course I had a highlighter… I mean… I had a highlighter, right? I had an entire plastic drawer set full of office supplies, there had to be a highlighter in there SOMEWHERE, right? Well, I dug through… Read More


Ah… home.

And today I…

on August 17, 2016

Took the dogs for coffee and sausage. Took a walk. Finished an edit. Wrote a little. Did some laundry. Packed. Kicked the cat out of my suitcase. Twice. Argued with cat thusly: “You can’t go!”  “Bitch!” “It’s not a cat thing, I just only have one ticket.”  “I will end you.”  “Get the fuck out… Read More


The East Coast Girls Are Hip…

on August 16, 2016

Okay, for starters, Tart and Sweet is now available for pre-sale from Amazon and ARe, so that’s exciting!  Also exciting is that Monday’s aqua teacher, charmed by our willingness to sing California Girls at the top of our lungs when her boombox quit, actually loaded the song for cool down today. *beams* She did that… Read More
