It snowed today, enough that we had to cancel my hair appointment. I'm eyeballing monday's storm which might drop more than a foot of snow and ice on my neck of the woods. I won't be going back until after that but they're expecting no power. Spectrum has already texted me: we expect no internet/phone. If I call down there and there's no power I'm ( Read more... )

allbingo is doing a public domain fest this month which is really cool. The prompts are all the music, books and movies coming into public domain this year. I chose to do only the music because I have the lyricaltitles thing too

"Nobody's Sweetheart"
"Everybody Loves My Baby (But My Baby Don’t Love Nobody But Me)"

Mom and I headed into Pittsburgh to the Phipps Conservancy to see their holiday display before it gets dismantled over the weekend. My SiL was meant to come but she was having a bad health day. My young cousin met us there. It was a minor miracle that I drove straight into the heart of Pittsburgh without slowing down once. If you're from around ( Read more... )

So many of us had a terrible 2024 and for a lot of us 2025 is cueing up to be just as bad so the less said the better. And no one wants to hear about laundry day, getting ready for work frustrations so let me slid right into the fanfic memes that I dug out of past years. There is one I've done multiple times that I can't find. I don't know what I ( Read more... )

Mom and I didn't get to go do what we were going to do. She wasn't feeling well and we were waiting to hear about my uncle (still are, took him for an MRI in the morning. Ah well). So I had to go get the 'lucky' food for the New Year (and living in Pittsburgh this is a mix of lentils - Italian, saur kraut/pork - German/Croatian, pretzels (Germanic/ ( Read more... )

How is it that time of year again? How are we to the point of me summing up my year and laying out my goals for the next year? HOW?!?

I did have a good year though. As much as I am disappointed and hurt by how badly These Haunted Hills sold I am so proud of this novel and if it is the last novel I write as Jana I'm happy with it. I just wish it ( Read more... )

it's been a day. My uncle has been rehospitalized after falling at home. Mostly he's been noncompliant and has fallen multiple times and now has so much fluid around his brain he needs to have it tapped. Not even sure he'll survive that. His home is two stories with the main house up and the apartment below with a will-kill-you-if-you're-not= ( Read more... )

More cousins came over today. I didn't mind. I only see them maybe twice a year (and didn't see them last year), they're the youngest of my dad's cousins from his gen (she's 11 years older than me) and her husband. He has a massive collection of pinball machines. He revamps and resells them ( Read more... )
