Spring cleaning, anyone?
Are you a do-it-yourselfer? How'd that work out for you?

I'm building a home sterio system and it was all going well until I decided that I was going to use a car radio for the AM and FM part. I finally got it installed though and it was working. Key word being was. It stopped just a few minutes in and the touchscreen radio wouldn't power on anymore. I tinkered around with it and now it's working great!
To a degree I am. Not 100% but always cleaning...lol
This was a couple years ago, but my one little DIY project was a DIY leather journal kit. I still have the journal, though I haven't written in it yet. Though, of course, there are somethings that you should NEVER DIY, like the electrical in your house. I say this as the niece of an electrician.

Got distracted learning to play "Can't Help Falling In Love", piano, while doing anything to avoid studying!

Nearly got it locked in the long term memory now.

But, I'll listen to just about anything (went through a Rascal Flatts phase a few months ago after hearing "Skin" for the first time).
I'd have to say that the heavy metal is my thing right now.
Blues/Classic Rock/ New Age.
Spring break brings all kinds of adventures.
Have you written stories about vacation adventures? Were they yours?

I have written about caving, and I have been caving. I did do a story on Archeology, but I have never done that adventure. I would love to though.
I did this as an assignment from my therapist. It involved a fictional dragon named Fulvin who went on a camping trip. The whole point of the assignment was to have a calm and entertaining experience as during this time a lot of 'non-favorable events' were happening. The experience at first made me sad, but after reading it again it created a peaceful and enlightening scene for myself. I always enjoy making short stories about topics I wouldn't normally think about, I feel it is important for every writer to do this at least once a month to have a surreal experience.
No, but I hope eventually I will.

Jessica M. Chittester - Removing a psychological abuser from your life is an excellent start to a good life, unless you cave in, later.

I am more tolerant of other people's opinions, less tolerant of pseudo-science and evangelical religion and evangelical politics (right & left), and less able to do things physically... no matter how much I try to convince myself I still can...
I guess over the years the old certainties tend to fade - less black and white these days, a shade more grey instead.

Well - I'm sticking address labels on postcards for a special post mark on Wednesday! *Wink*
Hope that counts as 'writing'! *Rolling*
I'm working on my 8th novel in my thriller mystery and on two comic books one a fantasy sic-fi and the other a funny Halloween tale.
I've gone back to writing a novella about a teenage girl who solves a murder mystery because her father was a suspect. It's also about flipping a house, which has been a guilty pleasure for me - reading about or watching a TV show about house-flipping.
