I've posted two of my favorite photos from a trip to Copper Harbor last year. It also has a small tribute to my wife. I'm a sap for pretty flowers, beautiful lagoons, and pretty ladies that hold my hand for several decades. Absolutely beautiful here today, if you can call 31 degrees beautiful. I...

If you haven't been reading my recent book entry, "The Struggle Within," and true stories about depression and personal introspection interest you, you might want to take a peak at Chapter Seventeen that I posted this morning. I was teetering on the edge of the abyss and I was quite sure that I was... Sign in to see full entry.

I went to see my court ordered psychologist and he asks me, "So... what's wrong with you?" I looked at him a minute and told him, "According to my friends and family, a lot." I just wanted to make his job a bit easier. * This was an opening line from my standup routine I did a few years back. Other... Sign in to see full entry.
Wow. It's 21 degrees at 10PM. It hasn't been this 'warm' this late in a couple months now. I made some solid progress on a couple things today and submitted three books into a contest in our writers club. As soon as I get the final editing done on "The Struggle Within," my current project here on... Sign in to see full entry.
A decent night of weather and sleep finds me feeling a bit better. It's about 12 right now and heading to about 22 today. I can handle that. I've put down some of the horror stuff I've been working on for some happier material and I think that has contributed to a better night's sleep. Things will... Sign in to see full entry.

I just posted another 1500 words or so of my update and re-edit of my true 2014 story on depression and personal self redemption. This was a 35,000 word story and I think I only have about another 5300 words left in queue. Today's posting had to do with the first time I had to place my wife in a... Sign in to see full entry.
A late start to the day after staying up too late last night. I found some more older stuff I did a couple decades back and I was looking some of it over. I might be able to salvage some of it for use in other story lines I have in queue. I keep telling people that I used to write and now I am a... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm feeling better but still a tad queasy. It's a start. If the forecast is to be believed, all of that 'below zero' stuff is not gonna happen for the next two weeks. I'm thankful for that. I knew when I moved up here that it had a tendency to get cold and snow all the time. It has held up its end... Sign in to see full entry.

A Lot of Words And A Couple of Headaches
Well, I spent most of the day rearranging the house a bit, just in case I have company show up. I've been told a few people may head my way this week, but I've heard nothing official yet. I added a sleazy 900 words to my murder story, but I just posted 3000 words over in my story blog from my 2014... Sign in to see full entry.
Apparently my body decided that I needed to sleep. I went to bed early and other than getting up twice to let the dogs out, I slept about eleven hours. I finally just left the doggie door open for them so they could come and go as they wanted. As long as the wind isn't coming out of the south, there... Sign in to see full entry.
