I must say, I’m pleased with my progress so far. I’m at 7208 words. The target word count for the end of Day Three (at 1667 words each day) is 5001. I started out with a good Day One (4769), but Day Two wasn’t so good (I only added 442 words). Today I’ve been feeling […]
Eight years ago today, I began writing LifeIsChange over at wordpress dot com. Wow. I’ve been working this last week or so on bringing those old posts back, and in the process, have been re-reading them. So much has changed in eight years. While I was aware that huge change was happening, I don’t think I […]
So, you know that theory that you can connect any two people in six steps or less if you know enough about them? I’ve always been fascinated by that, and the concept that we are all connected in some way. Sometimes my ADD attention span is like Six Degrees of Separation, going from one thought […]
NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) happens every November! I originally participated in NaNoWriMo from 2004 through 2010, when I lived in Florida, winning 2008, 2009, and 2010.

I have a few draft posts on a […]
SS (which is the nickname I used to use in my old blog for my wife/partner – it means Someone Special) and I flew home last night after a long weekend in Florida to visit family. I made a video of the view out my window as we landed because I just love landings. It’s […]

Sometimes I am, but on the other hand, hey, I still wish someone would make them happen. Here’s one: Quaker Quackers: I think the Quaker company (oatmeal […]
So, based on an idea that occurred to me the other night, I was going to say: “You know those biscuits that come in a can? Well, I think they should sell them in Colorado with pot in them, and call them Cannabiscuits. Just saying” And then I Googled it and found out there is […]
For the past 20 years or so, I’ve pretty much been what one might call “out”, if that’s defined as not being “in”. It’s not that I make any big announcements or formally “come out” to people. I’m just me, and I don’t lie or talk in riddles to keep from using the “she” pronoun […]
Sister and I have always enjoyed making up new words. This is today’s contribution to the Sisters Dictionary: cat-ass-trophy: The annoying condition that causes one’s ass to think it’s a cat and must bat everything in one’s vicinity until it falls down Yep. –
