Cold Meat... and Free Stuff!

It got down to 6 degrees last night and we picked up about eight inches of snow. The car started right up this morning, thanks to a recent tune up and new battery. My Dad always told that if I wanted a machine to run right, I needed to take care of it. I buy new front tires every fall and move the... Sign in to see full entry.

A Good Day To Cozy Up & Write A Book

I've been working on my NaNo and have put up a little over 21,000 words so far. Today is a good day for that as it is cold, snowing, and blowing something fierce. We have about 3" of snow so far with more coming with winds hitting about 45 mph. Low ton ight of about 10. My car is full of antifreeze... Sign in to see full entry.

Click and See - Maybe Listen

*sigh.* I had this long entry all set and about ready to go and then accidentally navigated away from the page and lost it all. As Bugs Bunny said, "What a Maroon!" I had to go down state to see my specialist. Back in February of 2016, I had my heart surgery and spent nine hours in surgery, five... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm Off, But You Knew That

I'm off on a brief side trip. I should be home by Tuesday night. I can post a few small things from my phone, but not much. Be well. V Sign in to see full entry.

Not Dark Yet

I've always said that music and its writers have influenced my writing and my life. I was working on a story and without even thinking, I had my character singing a song to himself. He was in a dark part of his mind and the song reflected that world of darkness. As I re-read the new writing, I... Sign in to see full entry.

Rainy Days And Mondays (Tip of the Hat to the Carpenters)

Well, my NaNo has hit 2850 words. I was hoping for more, but I'll take it. I can do better, I've just been busy around the house. I forgot I hadn't pulled in all of my outdoor hoses and such. Once I did that, I had to drain the pipes associated with the hoses that went outside. No sense in replacing... Sign in to see full entry.

To Be Continued...

I was up late last night working on my 2017 NaNo and managed to get the first 1500 words on 'paper' and hope to get at least that much more yet today. I have to leave home for a couple days early next week, so I have to average about 2500 words a day to make room for potential time missed. *Sigh.*... Sign in to see full entry.

Nostalgia Hits Me

So far, we have picked up a little more than an inch of snow. The dogs love it. I was just outside with them and giggled as I watched them turn their faces to the light wind we have and smile as the snowflakes hit their faces. I have three dogs. One is a small Dachshund type dog that weighs about 15... Sign in to see full entry.

Dogs, Creepy Kids, & The Neighbor

If I hadn't been outside playing with the goofy dogs this morning, I wouldn't have spoke with my neighbor. He told me that because we are looking at 'significant snow' tomorrow, they are moving the Halloween 'holiday' to this afternoon. I had had enough candy, but my weekend guests lowered my supply...

You See Officer, It All Started With A Knock On The Door

We had accumulation of snow totaling about an inch last night with the temps falling to about 22F. Thankfully not much wind. It's supposed to be about mid 40's the rest of the week, with the lows about 30 or so. That's your weather report, back to Big V for the rest of the news around his place. "V?...
