Just spent the last three days with my grandson that you can probably see in the photos above my page. I can't believe he's almost six months old and this is only the second time I've seen him. At least I get to see him again in April. I'm once again cur... read entire post

My artwork was featured in an Etsy treasury this morning so that gave me a bit of an ego lift. Then I was playing an online game and won about $3. So the morning started out pretty good. It looks like it's going to be a mostly sunny day so my daily walk... read entire post

I'm sitting in the Etsy chatroom having a good time with the other artists. It hasn't been that useful for finding buyers but I do need a social life so it's useful for that.
Tonight I'm making eggrolls with pork for dinner. The first and only time... read entire post

On this rainy day in S. California I decided to stay in and work on beading necklaces for my Etsy shop. It's so cozy in here.
Yesterday I was at the archery range all day meeting with the paleoplanet crew to make bows and arrows so I'm glad t... read entire post
I just feel a little off today. Barely got anything done. I think my conscious mind is on strike. Last night I choreographed a dance routine in a dream. Sort of like a folk dance. I re-ran it so many times in a half awake state, I could have actually do... read entire post

It seems that the more creative projects I do, the more my brain gets wound up into overdrive. And then when I sleep, my brain just keeps on going. Yesterday my boyfriend sent me a link about dim sum and recipes for making it at home. So last night I d... read entire post

Tags: poetry, literacy, readers, poem, criticism
Sometimes I get the strangest comments on the longer articles I write. Today I got a comment on a one page poem that so far has had the most views of all my poems. The criticism was that the poem was too long.
The poem in question isn't even a page... read entire post

I miss a few days and Ed is totally into trouble of some kind that has to do with 10 posts. Oh I am so lost not even St. Bernard's could rescue me. I also don't know what we are 'fearing'.* (#)@ inside jokes. My head hurts. Maybe I should go to bed. Hope... read entire post

Yesterday I finally planted some things in my tiny garden. I planted Kentucky pole beans because they did really well last year. And I planted 3 kinds of squash. I usually start my garden in March but I kept getting sick. Plus I was gone for a week, so... read entire post
One of my New Year's Resolutions was to read 100 books this year. And I find myself way behind. Right now I'm reading Moonheart by Charles De Lint. I had to start all over again because I lost track of the plot. I'm blaming perimenopause. One of the symp... read entire post

This week has been frustrating. First I come down with what I think is food poisoning. So I'm sick for the better part of 5 days. My boyfriend, hoping to end my misery took two half days off of work. Where he works vacation days and sick days are all con... read entire post
I haven't sold much on Etsy on the few years that I've been a member. Now I'm looking into a site called Silkfair.com. It looks pretty new. If I open another online store there, and it takes off, I'll feel like I got in on the ground floor. I just can't... read entire post

It is almost 2 AM. I was just about to go to bed, but like many nights, I have this lingering "I should have done something important" kind of feeling. Sometimes I stay up way too late hoping I can somehow redeem myself, when perhaps the smarter thing wo... read entire post
