  • Dueling addictions

    Truly I am very sorry for appearing so little on Xanga lately. The problem is Facebook. That thing is addictive. I originally joined to meet with other writers, who may know editors who have freelance jobs. The jobs thin…

  • Arctic in the Midwest

    It's been freakishly cold here in the Midwest. One morning I got up and my temp. gauge said -15. We've had lower temperatures here in my life, but not that often. This is scary. And to think a few years ago, it was warmi…

  • Whew! That's over!

    Every year about this time, I look at all the trashed boxes under the tree, see all the candies strewn about, enjoy the contented looks of my family playing with their new (high tech) toys, and sigh inwardly with relief.…

  • Complications

    Things have not exactly been moving smoothly here, even though I have a vacation to Florida to look forward to on Saturday. Then there was a big mixup with my son's plans to come home for Christmas. It's too hard to ex…

    It seems incredible that Indian summer was here only a few weeks ago. Now it's in the 40s during the day and 30s at night. We haven't had a killing frost yet, so my allergies are still bothering me. So, in general, it su…

    Because it was a holiday today (or at least for some people--and the postal service), I totally forgot an appointment today. Then we traded the nasty awful cold for snow. What's worse? (The cold, for sure.) My package to…

  • Oh, no, not this...

    Wow, I know it's winter and everything, but geez Louise, it's zero degrees out there! They warned us, but one can never be ready for this sort of thing. At least the snow amounted to nothing, so there's that blessing. …

  • Beating my head against the wall

    Things aren't working out so well today. The New Age magazine that is going to do an excerpt and a review wanted me to buy a bigger ad--even though I'm sure I told him I wanted a little one in our phone conversation…

  • Happy Groundhog's Day!

    No one else seems to be mentioning my favorite holiday, Groundhog's day. So, I will. Today the feisty little marmot did not see his shadow. However, we have ridiculously low temperatures headed our way. Not just an…
