Once Again, Thanks Kabu!

I was wondering what I could put in this section today shy of 'It's a wonderful day here...." but then Kabu made a comment that gave me the idea. This could just as easy to wander over to my writing section, but I will just post it in both places. I may place a self promoting link there to this one... Sign in to see full entry.

Just A Thought

Planning is essential, but plans are worthless. Sign in to see full entry.

Curious George

I'm always curious what people think, this time in particular what you think about the ebb and flow of "The Mercurial." This story was a tangled little thing when it was told to me and I'm trying to 'untangle' it and make it work right. If you are reading it, you are aware that it jumps forward and...

Mumblety-peg

"Some days are diamonds, some days are stone." Taken from John Denver's song of the same name. I have a lot of things to do today and I'd ten times rather be taking a walk with the grandson and the dogs in the woods. Last night was an uneasy sleep, my mind would not just shut up and allow me to... Sign in to see full entry.

Help Me Mr. Wizard!

Looks like a nice day out so far. Sunny with an expected high of about 80. I heard my first flock of Canadian geese circling, trying to decide if it was time to leave. Despite it only being late August, some trees are being to think about developing their abscission layer which slows and then stops... Sign in to see full entry.

A Tweak Here, A Tweak There...

It appears that I am 'stuttering' a bit on my fictional story, "The Mercurial,' but the truth is, I'm about 6,000 words ahead of what I have posted here. My problem is that I've had to go back into the story to change small details to make the story remain consistent. I hate to have to come here and... Sign in to see full entry.

John Steals The Show

Alrighty, alrighty, alrighty!!! Put away the Xanax, I'm back! LOL. This trip wasn't exactly what I had planned but it was fun filled. We spent one night at the base camp we have in the middle of nowhere near Gaylord, Michigan. John was crazy with glee! He kept telling me, "This is the best day...... Sign in to see full entry.

Here We Go... Literally

Recall if you will, I've been telling you that we were going to head north again 'soon.' I was just told that 'soon' has become 'tomorrow.' We will be leaving about one pm EST tomorrow to head back into the upper recesses of Michigan's Great North. The neat thing is we will be taking my youngest... Sign in to see full entry.

Well Happy Day!

Well, at least, it is my birthday! Yeah me! I'm 63! A light but persistent rain is falling and I have the doors and windows open to listen to the rainfall. I'm feeling great and hope to go out with friends and family later this afternoon to have lunch. Birthdays were never really 'celebrated' in my... Sign in to see full entry.

Ch-ch-changes! With A Hat Tip To David Bowie

I had to make some slight changes, maybe three words, maybe less, in Chapter Nine of The Mercurial to make the circumstances described there to jibe with the ones in Chapter Ten. I write this stuff on the fly and then post it about five minutes after I check it. The detail in question was that in... Sign in to see full entry.
