Warm and Fuzzy Locals

This morning we went out for an early morning walk along the beach, and also got to climb about a bit on the rocks.Â We had a fair amount of company on the boardwalk, but this lady seemed to be taking up more than her share of the space.Â Can’t imagine what it was–she has

So we got into Miami Beach last night, and just check out our hotel! Our room is the second gutted room from the right on the third floor.Â Just try to contain your envy. Â

Humor: The Spice of Life

As I whirled through the first draft of Shadow Dance I never let myself go back and fix broken bits, or adjust past chapters to fit my newly evolved plot. Okay, maybe once or twice.Â But I tried to leave it alone and slap my twitchy fingers away. However, I did create a file labeled

Over the weekend I volunteered at my son’s school for a fundraiser and was put on a concession cash register.Â The event was pretty busy and we had a steady flow of hamburgers, hot dogs, and combos thereof coming past, with the occasional candy bar or soda.Â I tried to do the friendly chat with

We went car shopping today.Â In a laxidasical, half-hearted way.Â We really do need a second car–we’ve been getting along fine for all these years with just one, but recently we’ve had a few too many times when half the family needed toÂ dance attendance toÂ a particularÂ event while the other half the family needed to simultaneously

Trespasser

We heardÂ noise from the backyard today and went to investigate.Â A big husky was standing on the far side of our pasture barking his head off–but since the orange cat was up in the carport, with us, we couldn’t see what he was fussing about.Â Then I noticed a spot of grey standing out from

I’m not really awake this morning, just pretending for a few hours.Â Our New Year’s celebration was extended, just as it should have been winding down, by a sick child.Â I think I got to bed sometime between 3:00 and 4:00am…and, yes, I’m still in bed at something close to 11:00am–though I have bestirred myself
