What I have planned for the day and what the day will bring are probably two different things... otherwise known as SSDD... Same Stuff, Different Day. I am slowly beginning the 'decomission' of my nearly trusty nine year old desktop computer, and in the process of that task, I copied and removed... Sign in to see full entry.

My re-write and editing of 'Say Hello to Dave' is complete. All told, I had a new section that was a bit over 3200 words long and the edits included adding roughly 700 words. I have a habit of saying, thus writing, 'Could I get a couple pieces of wood?' instead of 'Could I get a couple of pieces of... Sign in to see full entry.

With the last day of February upon us, the warming temps of Spring can't be that far away... or so I tell myself. I like taking winter shots, but this winter getting out into the weather has meant wearing at least twenty pounds or more of protective clothing. That gets old. The extended ten day...

Goodbye Evelyn.
I made it home about 10 PM last night. Save for some very slippery roads in the Gaylord Michigan area on my way south, the trip was uneventful. I spent about four hours talking with my friend about things that happened long ago and what lay ahead. I didn't push the conversation, I just went where... Sign in to see full entry.

Ahhhh nuts. I have to make a quick trip down state. The snow is horrible, but I have no choice in the matter. A long time friend of mine is critically ill and isn't expected to stay with us much longer. She asked to see me and I have to go. I'll be back later this evening... I hope!

The Internet finally came back up. While I have a routine that finds me reading the latest news from overnight, I realized that the travesty that the Oscars has become was dominating the headlines. I could give a jolly damn about anything that anyone in Hollyweird has to say think, or do. When your... Sign in to see full entry.
Oh what a night! The reported wind was well over 60 mph and while we never lost power (for long), my Internet is down. I'm using my cell to power my desktop long enough to make my morning posts. Hopefully this resolves soon. Sign in to see full entry.

I'm doing another read/edit on 'Say Hello To Dave,' and finding small little things that fresh eyes always find. I want to do a 'Meet The Author' thing in late April here in the local library in Newberry, and I want to be sure that 'Dave' is ready for that deal. At the half way point, I had added...

We are in the middle of another blizzard warning. So far, we've only gotten about five inches of snow, but the forecast is now calling for a total of well over fifteen inches by later tonight. The wind is absolutely howling outside as it comes from Lake Michigan right now, but is scheduled to swing... Sign in to see full entry.
