It's raining here and it's doing a job on the snow that has accumulated over the winter in my back yard. I found an interesting article about stress that talks about 'so many things to do, but no time to do them.' It's worth the read. One of the reasons that I don't comment here is that I am always...

I woke up to a 35 degree morning with hopes of seeing a 50 degree afternoon for the first time since last October. Of course, as the weather warms around the Lakes, it will rain, but the rain will help melt the mountains of snow around me. Most of my best walking trails and forests are still closed...

I had to break up my overly long post in my murder story. I'll post the second part of it tomorrow. I found a natural break in the storyline, so I chopped it right there. I'm almost to the action points. It's been killing me to have to return back to various points in the story to make sure the... Sign in to see full entry.
Writing To Word Count
It snowed. Again. It won't last long, but I'm ready for some green scenery right now. The one good thing about today is that it is Friday, leaving me to only hack out my three weekly columns for the various newspapers. One needs ~605 words, one wants ~ 483 words, and the other one will take whatever... Sign in to see full entry.

For those reading my murder story, I need a new name for it. My original intention was to focus on the crime as did the original killer, but I've changed my mind. He tortured his captives for nine days before being caught. While it is my intention to include a week's worth of being held hostage,... Sign in to see full entry.
I was sent this by of all people, my doctor. He told me that he wished that more people had my attitude on Life. Attitude “The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the... Sign in to see full entry.
Yesterday was a long, long day, but after I crossed the Bridge and was on the last leg of my journey, I was west bound on US-2, about a dozen miles out of St. Ignace, the sun was setting. Lake Michigan is still completely frozen over in the north lands and as the sun was sinking below the horizon, I... Sign in to see full entry.

This likely to be a quick post and run day for me. I have the make the 300+ miles trip south to Lansing and then 300+ miles back in just a few short minutes. I should be back about 7PM. I hope. There is a possibility that I'll end up staying down there and head back in the morning. I'm not big on... Sign in to see full entry.

We picked up roughly an inch or so of fresh snow last night. Thankfully, it is supposed to touch the mid forties here today. It could be 75 and I'd like that even more. I didn't sleep well at all last night, and I'm not quite sure why that happened. No particular worrisome thoughts or problems, just... Sign in to see full entry.

Plot Set Up Explained
I had a busy day yesterday despite doing little to nothing. I was watching the baseball game (Detroit Tigers vs the Toronto Blue Jays - The Tigers won in the 11th inning!) and was so elated that I flipped on the computer and began to work on my murder story. If you read the last two entries which... Sign in to see full entry.
