There's an old saying that I always heard growing up in Michigan that said, "If you don't like the weather... wait a few minutes and it will change." And it was right, but I think that applies to any of the states that are peninsulas. Michigan had the Great Lakessurrounding it, making the state and... Sign in to see full entry.

I Heard From My Publisher Today
I sent the first 6000 words of a raw manuscript I started about ten days ago to a professional book editor a few days ago, asking him to take a look at the opening of this story. I explained it was not yet edited, but I was looking for his opinion and asked if I should continue with it. A little bit... Sign in to see full entry.
I had to run down to the hospital for an unplanned blood draw. Nothing is wrong, but the doctor decided he wanted to check on me. Fortunately, I hadn't eaten yet, so everything was perfect. They called a few minutes ago, and all parameters were WNL (Within Normal Limits)... so until he decides he... Sign in to see full entry.

It's a long story, but I got my car back. It was swiped by an EIGHT-YEAR-OLD KID. The cops tell me it's not the first time he has done this. The car isn't hurt, and he only took it about nine blacks away and parked it in his "girlfriend's" driveway. Since there was no damage done and the cops told... Sign in to see full entry.
Have You Seen My Car?
Well, what started out as a good (but cold) morning has got to crap. I went outside to warm the car up so I could get a few groceries we needed... and about thirty seconds after I go inside, I hear it leaving. Someone stole my car. I have security cameras, but the person is JUST out of view. The... Sign in to see full entry.

An hour south of here, it is already 80 degrees. It's 56 here now, up from the low overnight of 47, heading to a high of 63. LOL. Joy. I was posting right along this morning and then I got a call from my pastor friend, Danny, the man who married us. They were having a problem with their live stream... Sign in to see full entry.

Good Saturday morning. Lisa and I are going to go out for breakfast as soon as the guy down the street brings the car back. He does oil changes and little things like that. I've been wanting to get the oil changed and that small third brake light on the back of your car fixed (the one that seems to... Sign in to see full entry.

Finally
We are still getting on-again, off-again showers, but the heavy rain that has been with us for about 32 hours has passed and other than the loss of power yesterday, we are unscathed. It is expected to hit 80 today, so we will probably spend the day on "glass patrol." The heavy rain will have exposed... Sign in to see full entry.

Our power came back on about fifteen minutes ago, so I came back here to pick up where I was when everything shut down. I developed this thing where I open up the page for each of the posts I make, then fill them all in, and once all my posts for the day are done, I hit SUBMIT on them. That habit...

The power remains off and the wind is really coming up. I was hoping to spend this day writing and plotting in several different stories, but that's not going to happen for a while. I've found my pad if yellow legal paper, so I can not down some notes of things I want to include in the I Hate My... Sign in to see full entry.
