Are you ready?

Nine more days.  Nine.  I can't believe it.  This year's flown by so quick!

NaNoWriMo 2016... Just a little over two weeks away now....

My desk right now, is (mostly) organized.  For my birthday, I got some money from a friend and I used it to - of course - get some practical items that I'll get a lot of use out of, for a long, long time.  (Thanks, Ware family!)



I've been printing up some really interesting information from past NaNos, pep-talks and the like, as well as other information I've come across from other writing blogs I follow.  Things that I want to have on hand, not just for next month's project, but for future projects and have them right here when I need them and don't want to have to scour the internet for "where was that article again that talked about that thing..." and before I know it, I've got carpal tunnel in my hands again, my mouse's batteries have been drained multiple times over, and my eyes are dry and squinty, and my body is permanently shaped in the sitting position.  Ha ha

Happy Sunday, indeed!

Another cat's been rescued this morning, by my rescue partner, Mary.  Little Ashes has been picked up from my complex at around 9.30 this morning.  This is wonderful news, because it's one less cat on the street to suffer loneliness and fear.

I Run For....

Several years ago, my Mom took up running after her divorce from the old man.  Not long after she discovered how freeing this hobby is for her, she got involved in this really neat thing called I Run For.  She's told me a lot about it, and I've watched her posts she's shared about it.  I've seen how happy it makes her, and I've always been curious.  Finally, earlier this year, I decided I'd check it out.

Recipe as promised (then really going to go unplug for the night)

This recipe, I came up with because I couldn't think of anything to put together for dinner that wasn't something we'd done 800 times already, and we hadn't gone shopping yet, and I was too lazy to go to the store (seriously, introvert.  Grocery store.  NOT a good mix!).

It's really simple, and fairly inexpensive (less than $15) to throw together.

Who, me? Nah... I'm just ... I'm here. Nothing to see. Keep scrolling.

I'm on the cusp of something huge right now.  Something I can't quite describe.  As NaNoWriMo is showing up more and more on the horizon, my furstration's starting to turn into more motivation than anything.  I've got the start of my novel, I need to dust it off and breathe some new life into it, BUT I MUST get the research done FIRST.

Oh, y'know, just goofing off, mucking about online, when I should be working.

Hello, and welcome Fall!

Things have been so insane in my world lately.  Granted, no, that's no real reason to be so absentee, but I've been learning a lot about blogging, learning a lot about writing, learning a lot about a lot of different things.  And you know what?  It's been quite a wild ride.

Can you believe it's already October, and more than that, we're already in our 2nd week of October?!  Where is time going in such a hurry...
