I'm closing down for the night, but I've hit 40,000 words in my story. It's a syrupy love story, but it was how it was, or I guess how I saw it and remember it. All I know is that this courtship turned into a marriage that stood for a month shy of 44 years. We were absolutely smitten with each other... Sign in to see full entry.

I feel a bit saggy today. I don't feel bad and I slept well, I just don't feel any spark to keep moving. Winter time blues maybe or perhaps the memories I'm stirring in my story. Probably both. Oops, found myself daydreaming, staring into space there for a few minutes. Just dreaming. I should go lay... Sign in to see full entry.

Whew. The chemo for the day and the week is behind me. I've either learned to galvanize myself against this crap or they've changed the content to the solutions. I'm not ready to go on a five mile jaunt, but I'm not staggering across the floor and falling into bed. I'll take that. My markers have... Sign in to see full entry.
I was moved and motivated today. I managed to get a bit over 7000 words done. Not an all time high, but up there. My best one day effort was about 12,000 words. If today hadn't had so many interruptions and a few other issues hadn't kept happening, it would have been more. Some of the memories I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

Time passes in moments, moments which, rushing past, define the path of a life, just as surely as they lead towards its end. How rarely do we stop to examine that path, to see the reasons why all things happen, to consider whether the path we take in life is our own making, or simply one into which...

I've worked on and off all day to add another 4,000 words to my story. I think I'm at 26,500 right now. Not bad for less than three weeks of effort. I'm trying to do a minimum of 2400 words a day until it is done. I missed my target date as today was our anniversary, but I really really want ti done... Sign in to see full entry.
It was nine above last night, but it is on its way to 36 today. I went out for a short walk and feel better for doing so, but I almost hit the end of my physical rope, and that was a mistake. As soon as I am done doing my Blog-It stuff, I'm going to sit back in my recliner and think. Pushing myself... Sign in to see full entry.

Dreaming
Over in my story blog, I'm writing about some of the happiest days of my life. When I close my eyes, this event seems like it was this morning and not 45 years ago. I can still smell the perfume and feel the tears. Oh well. It got down to nine last night, but it has already recovered to twenty seven... Sign in to see full entry.

This Is Why I Need The Sleeping Meds
For what's going on around and with me, I'm doing remarkably well. I cut back on the Seroquyl and still slept about ten hours, but I'm not as groggy as I was yesterday. I spent the day working on my current project and another one that I've pulled out and put away three times now. Both are reaching... Sign in to see full entry.

Holy Fairy dust Batman! I had mentioned to my doctor that I was only able to sleep at interrupted bits and pieces over my normal sleep all night habit and she gave me a Seroquel script for five 100mg pills and told me to take one about half an hour before I actually I wanted to go to sleep. Yeah,... Sign in to see full entry.
