I'm feeling much better now. Not 100% yet, but better. The headache is at a minimum, so life is much easier to handle. If you've been following my rewrite of 'My Long Road Back,' it is about to get intense. I've spent all of the previous pages explaining what had happened that started the problems,...

I slept on and off all afternoon, and while the headache lingers ever so faintly, I am feeling better. Prolly just a variant of the routine 'flu' that runs around here. I stood in my backyard as the dogs played for a few minutes. They had been very good most of the day, and thus, they deserved to be... Sign in to see full entry.
I ended up sleeping the vast majority of yesterday, so apparently I needed to do so. Those days are rare for me. Since so much of the day was a blur, I've forgotten if I made mention that the gas tank in my car 'fell out' of the trunk. Apparently when I swerved to miss the idiot on the snowmobile...

I had lay down with hopes to rid myself of a nasty headache. Again, I was restless, and real sleep was eluding me. Then, a nearly perfectly (mentally) outlined story came to me. I've already outlined it in my had before I woke up, so I quickly wrote down about 250 words. From those words, I'll write... Sign in to see full entry.
This is just me wandering. Pay no attention to this emotion driven post. This too shall pass. I hard a hard time sleeping last night, and I'm off to a slow start this morning. I couldn't figure out why I was feeling this way until a certain song came across my music feed. I promise that I won;t be... Sign in to see full entry.

Starry, Starry Night Again
Much cooler today than it was yesterday, a high today of 33 vs the high we had yesterday of 56. We have a steady rain that started about 2AM last night and it will continue all day. Such is the weather in a peninsula trapped between three massive lakes. The only dry side is due west of me, and all... Sign in to see full entry.

The Last Flower
The story was written by James Thurber, but this version of it finds the man who narrated my tribute to my wife, 'I Remember Judy - A Love Story,' Ray Lesniewski. The title is, 'The Last Flower.' It's only three minutes long, but I found it poignant enough to take the time convert it over for you... Sign in to see full entry.
Another day, another fifteen phone calls before 10:15. By the time I hit Blog-It in the morning, I normally have put 1500 to 2000 words behind me. Not counting replies to emails, I have accumulated a big fat ZERO word count. When I don't write, I get irritable. Everyone is hung about the China Flu,... Sign in to see full entry.

I've finally had to send out mass emails to friends and family that seem to think I'm running a free room and board without any notice that 'due to the China Flu, the management was no longer accepting new tenants.' At this time of the year, this village is lucky to have 400 people in it. Due to... Sign in to see full entry.
I just found out something that maybe you should all know. Apparently, people in the bank don't know about the virus problem yet. I went in with my black face mask, and everyone freaked out. Weird. Sign in to see full entry.
