Back from Traveling

THE DAY And ’nuff said.  No writing today (although not entirely true; I nibbled away on the airplane but not enough to get all excited). So…big fat 0. On the other hand, I leave you with this (and watch it…

Jackie, OY!

THE DAY So, again, not writing because the husband has reminded me that we’re on a semi-break to see a kid. (Tomorrow, we’re also traveling, so no writing to happen then either.)  It is what it is. Saw a not…

Time Well Spent

THE DAY Not the best writing day, though I expected this, considering that I had already made an arrangement to hang with an archivist at the library.  Also slept in longer than I’d intended, although I didn’t toss and turn…

THE DAY Things didn’t start out so hot.  I finally dragged out of bed about an hour and  a half later than usual because I’d spent over two hours tossing and turning in the middle of the night–again.  I really…
