[Link: 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPmbT5XC-q0'] It's rainy and it's Monday, but I'm anything but down! Russell and I talked for several hours on the phone last night. The practical part was telling me to give him his space, since this was, from all practical appearances, what...[Read Full Post] Mon, 28 Jan 2008 18:44:27 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/563950 [Link To User lifewriter] has given me her feedback on this blog, and it's positive! I'm in like Flynn in her new group (see previous entry for details re: how you can be, too!)! This is going to be a really fun project! Today, I need to go out and run errands--details here in yet another positive blog I'm writing...

What we have now are deep-freeze temperatures, so it will take some big stretch of the imagination to think of summer. No, I'm not tr...[Read Full Post] Wed, 30 Jan 2008 14:25:10 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/564388 [Link To Item #1382932] I'm happy to report that--by the seat of my pants and the skin of my teeth--I got my letter to myself entered in the contest before the deadline! Last year, I would have, too--but the deadline came before the end of the day, while I had the idea that the deadline came at the time that it did this year. Anyway, I managed to not only...[Read Full Post] Fri, 01 Feb 2008 07:15:58 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/564748 I'm happy to report that I'm going to be getting a freezer delivered here this coming Tuesday morning. Not a huge one--something like just under a yard high, a couple of feet deep, and a little over a couple of feet wide. The biggest fly in the ointment will be getting my place--an insane version of renovation on the back-burner while life goes on--prepared for i...[Read Full Post] Sun, 03 Feb 2008 23:19:42 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/565382 The reason I haven't been here lately is because I've been working on a really neat project. I'm still working on it, but it's now open to the public (though not grand-opened yet), so check it out when you find the time and want to: [Link: 'http://www.freewebs.com/iynvoice'] Be sure to sign my guestbook and shout in my shout box while there!...[Read Full Post] Sun, 17 Feb 2008 15:03:25 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/568218 I seem to be in on the latest fad going on around the country--some kind of flu-like ailment. First, a friend of our had it and gave it to my mom--thankfully, not all of it, because I believe that his version also came with the trots. But my mom got the rest of it. Then, I did. For awhile, I had everything that my mom did except I was only sneezing occasionally while s...[Read Full Post] Thu, 21 Feb 2008 00:20:56 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/569040 I've just read the most inspiring story, which has inspired me to put together a blog that displays inspiring stories--and, in turn, I've linked that blog to a page at the website I've designed to enhance [Link To Item #1379663] . Therefore, any item getting featured there is definitely going to be getting several different opportunities to be read!

It all started when I was in the process of organizing my address book to put it in-sync with the new, wonderful e-mail system (which I haven't totally gotten the hang of doing yet, but I'm getting there), and I noticed that a certain other writer here was describing h...[Read Full Post] Sat, 01 Mar 2008 16:51:45 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/570927 My happy news of the day is seeing a new costumicon at the port of [Link To User lifewriter] . By the time you read this, no telling what the costumicon would be--or the handle. But the last one was simply her nom de plume and a sad face on her briefcase. The one I came across this morning was like some clouds and question marks, and she was identified as LW So Who Am I?. Anyway, it made my day just knowing that she was back here again bein...[Read Full Post] Fri, 07 Mar 2008 16:59:53 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/572227 I have so many good things to share here, but I've just been too busy to share them! So, I'll catch you up on a lot of them in more detail in the days to come! However, I'm just going to give you a little smile tonight... I was over at [Link To Item #379352] when I was in place to answer the question by [Link To User fleckgirl] reading: "...[Read Full Post] Sat, 03 May 2008 16:41:30 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/582562 Today I made a new In & Out that I think is pretty worthwhile, and I want to share it with you: [Link To Item #1421827] This isn't the only really productive thing I've done/will do today.

I keep peeking in on [Link To User storymaster] and [Link To User storymistress] to see if there are any updates, but I don't see any! Jack should really hurry up and get here because he not only has lots of people and cats who love him but, also, he has a simply smashing nursery waiting for him! ...[Read Full Post] Tue, 20 May 2008 02:10:10 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/585988 I was first going to post this in the message forum, but it wasn't working tonight. So I put it into a nice card from here [Link To Item #1408061] . Now, I'm going to post it here! Enjoy! Today, I heard a song on the radio, and I thought of Jack, you, and the cats--your little family! It will be the first song that...[Read Full Post] Thu, 29 May 2008 00:18:01 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/587788 Long time no entry here! Sorry 'bout that... Anyway, this is just a note to let you know that I'm in the process of tying my pieces together so that I won't scatter so much! Study my sig-block well, and you'll begin to get an idea of what I mean! In short, I should be back here more and making entries in this blog. It's hard to believe that the last time that I made any entry in here was in May. Of course, I've had a good excuse due to being so busy that it isn't funny. Anyway, I'll be playing catch-up with you in the days to come, as I have a lot to tell... ...[Read Full Post] Fri, 15 Aug 2008 13:15:17 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/602109 I just love making virtual snowflakes! Today, I had a very special message to put on them, so I made seven with the message on them and, also, put the message on a few other snowflakes (made by other people) as well. I had three variations of the message (with one designed especially for people living in San Diego). Here are the three variations: Celebration Time! Celebration Time!! WooHoo! WooHoo!

Enjoy what I've written here in this blog so far, and please pardon any parts that are dated. I believe that you'll find it to be pleasant to read.
