Good Bye Dave! "Dave" is Done.

Wow. As I told Kabu, I found the right mood, the right space in my head, the proper quiet, and I managed to put a total of 5844 words together to finish "Say Hello to Dave!" tonight. Phew. I am sincerely glad that I got this story out of my system. It haunted me back then and since I started writing... Sign in to see full entry.

Slowly I Turn...

While it was cold, blustery, and damp here, it was also quiet here. I found myself able to slip into my character with relative ease, a very welcome situation. One of the lingering effects of my stroke has been certain words elude me. Normally, once I 'assume the character,' my hands take over and... Sign in to see full entry.

Reading, Writing and 'Rithmatic

I wanted to start posting again Saturday night or maybe Sunday but some of the simple things in life don't always come back as quick as we think they will. I'm working on my "Say Hello To Dave" story and I must have stared at the last paragraph I wrote some 60 days ago for a good five hours.... Sign in to see full entry.

I Guess I Wasn't Ready To Go Just Yet

It's been two months or so since I was last here but it hasn't been due to a lack of interest on my part. The last time you heard from me, I had developed a pneumonia that had led to a good sized blood clot on my lungs. Naturally, as has been the story of my life, if there is a 'more scenic path' in...

Bloody Clots Anyway

Sorry about the absence and afraid it may go on at least another couple days. I began to feel worse and worse and finally saw my doctor. Good thing I did. It seems I had developed a medium sized blood clot on my left lung which could have proved fatal. I am hospitalized for at least one more day. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Crazy Days And Crazy Nights

Ever mean to do something and then forget all about it? Me neither. I got busy doing a project and totally forgot to post in this section yesterday. It hasn't helped with this cold/pneumonia I've managed to chase down and acquire. I'm coughing like crazy and wheezing all the time. A good time was... Sign in to see full entry.

Done In and Done For!

Ever have one of those days? It's only 10:25 AM and I'm ready to call it a day. I haven't done anything but read my morning websites for news and such and I'm already feeling done in. I think I'll go find my recliner and let my mind unwind. Back in a while! Sign in to see full entry.

Dear Deer!

It is 62 outside today. We have all of the house doors and windows open, exchanging fresh air for stale winter air. Of course tomorrow, we revert back into highs in the mid 40's for a week or more. I wanted to get some raking done but it will have to wait a bit longer. Afterall, it is still March... Sign in to see full entry.

Legos and Sore Throats

The weather can't decide if it wants to be warm or cold here. Yesterday was about 40 degrees but the day before was 56. Weather.com says we will see 55 today and 65 on Monday, quickly followed by several days in a row of the low 40's. I predict a lot of colds and sore throats! In the mean time, my...

Live College Baseball Today!

I do live streaming of lots of things. Today kicks off the 2015 baseball series we will be streaming out of Jacksonville, Illinois. I hesitate to say that this was a last minute set up but it was. We will have a few bugs but you can watch college baseball here until about 7PM EST at no cost. They... Sign in to see full entry.
