The closet sprites have struck again. I was back from crown and hanging up m coats. I have a fishing vest that I used to use for photography stuff and it was falling off the hanger. As I picked it up it felt very heavy so I dug in the pockets and found...my wide angle lens that I've been missing for a year and a half. I'm pretty sure that I had ( Read more... )

I've been so crazy bizzy that I haven't had time to post or read any journals in about two weeks. Coming to a crunch with the contract job ( Read more... )

Well it's been a busy week and where to start. Last week I made a vow to start writing 2000-4000 words a week. At least 2000 on a book and the rest on whatever. So last week I did about 2300 on the book and wrote sundry bits so I may not have quite made the mark, but still good.

Party tonight so I've been doing a rather late spring cleaning. (And my frikking tooth broke last nightWith my cat dying in the spring I didn't get two the every 3-month dusting. And everything is damp from the constant rain. Too muggy to close the windows, or to open them. Here's a few things I've done for the partay:

• Dusted off six months of dust ( Read more... )

Oook, I have to research setting up a website for one job. Then for the other I have to hunt down transcripts for about thirty faculty. As well I have to copyedit a 112 page book by Friday, clean for my party, chop veggies and make dip, write an article, clean for my party, meet with my writing friend tomorrow, do yoga, and finish my taxes all by ( Read more... )

There are a few people I'd like to punt to the moon. I just posted this on the Lions Gate list. Usually when I post there's dead silence. Either people are stunned or haven't a clue what I said. :) Maybe it'll sink home, but I doubt it.

We live in a modern age of computers and instant messages. Before those came

There's been some serious baby bird action this last weekend. I don't know why I've never noticed before but maybe this year it's finally got nice enough for the wee tads to consider leaving the nest ( Read more... )
