I Would Really Appreciate Your Opinions Here

This is a roughly 4600-word section that I just finished tonight for the final part of 'The Brick.' I'm looking for brief comments on its readability, continuity, and emotional impact. My skin is thick, so tell me truly what you think. Remember who I am married to! LOL As always, I mention all of... Sign in to see full entry.

Sometime tonight, I will post a very long segment from my book, 'The Brick.' It deals with the conversations with my partner that died of COVID on September 29th of 2021, some six months after losing his wife of 50+ years. I'm going to say that it will be roughly 6500 words. I am in the process of... Sign in to see full entry.

It was another cold night here, relatively speaking, of course. After hitting a low of 33 last night, it should get to be about 65 again today. It could be worse. I just checked the temps in Newberry, and I shivered when I saw it said it was -6 as of 8:30 this morning. I had a lot of little things I... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm finally feeling better. I think I must have had a case of the regular flu for a few days. I had a slight headache, but being exceptionally dizzy for three days was the biggest problem. I still feel dizzy if I move too fast, but it has begun to go away. The weather is still cool to borderline... Sign in to see full entry.

Lisa is home. She says she had a lot of fun, but she is happy to be back with her 'family' - the dogs and me. I know that the dogs were sure excited to see their 'momma' again. I think I am happier than the dogs. She told me the water was rather cold, but she loved trying to get out and away from... Sign in to see full entry.

I got a call from the wife, which woke me up. She is heading home now. I thought she would be gone for at least one more day, so I guess I need to get dressed! LOL. She says they had a lot of fun, but the water was a little cold to swim in for very long. I think that I had mentioned that, but what... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm up and moving, but I am still taking it very slowly. I have the remnants of a headache from yesterday; not enough to slow me down, but enough to remind me that it was still there. It's slowly warming up from the low of 33 last night, currently at 57. As long as I keep moving, I stay warm enough... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning... or at least I think it is morning. I laid down to 'nap' about 8 PM last night and didn't wake up again until about 8:45 this morning. I am still a touch dizzy, but I am much better than yesterday. I can walk without fear of falling down and turn my head without getting dizzy. I... Sign in to see full entry.

I got up and moving this morning with every intention of staying busy all day. All of a sudden, I got dizzy and couldn't stand up, so I lay back down. The dizziness has subsided, but it still flares up if I begin to do much. I would suspect a minor ear infection, but I can't tell. I'll treat it as... Sign in to see full entry.

While not cold (yet), it is a decidedly cooler day. I think the plan that we decided to follow today was some general clean-up inside and more planning on where we go from here. I figure that we have to spend about another six to seven thousand dollars to get this place 'liveable.' We are living in... Sign in to see full entry.
