Joy getting so cute you guys. I was worried that as she got older and grew bigger and turned into a dog rather than a puppy, she wouldn’t be as cute as she was when we first got her and I’m happy to report: she’s so goddamn CUTE! She has this moppy muppet teddy bear...

Y’all held out on me a bit with this Book of Boba Fett stuff. That show is quite good! It does go off the rails ever so slightly in the last couple episodes with the sudden shift to Mando’s POV and a bunch of filler BUT…daaaamnnn. I enjoyed the show SO MUCH MORE than...

I guarded my heart. I didn’t mean to, and even when I had an inkling, I knew I wouldn’t forever…but I was. The loss made me. I couldn’t help it. This weekend with Joy has been a turning point. She’s just old enough. It’s been just long enough for me. It was just...

We’re doing all of Hitchcock. Everything. Not missing a single film, at least not any of them that are available to watch. Hitch does go back far enough that some of his early stuff is straight up lost in the mists of time. But everything that CAN be watched, we have...

You know…sometimes I just have to give into the rest. I needed a couple days where I mentally let go of the rope a bit. Work, thankfully, has been quiet. I gave some attention to other things clamoring in my head, like getting the ball rolling on having all the cats...

Joy is loooooooving sleeping on the bed. Make me happy. Sweet baby. She even loves being right up at the top of the bed in between our pillows, just like Coco used to be. Busy day. We have a line on a spay/neuter rescue that operates in our area, and they’re going to...

Certainly don’t have my rhythm back. Sigh. Today was rough on the creative front. No steam. I tried. I did. I was up on time and butt in seat, even through the whole session…but nothing really came to me. I gave up easily, really. It’s an energy thing. A focus. A...

Read through my outline today for my writing sessions. Just to get back in touch with it, but also to see what shape it was in. It’s in good shape! It’s exciting. At least until right around where I left off…starts to get a bit messy by then, BUT…only because I have a...

I hope this week and weekend were enough for me to rest and recharge. I was finally able to sleep A LOT this weekend, and that was nice. Was it enough? Probably not, but time’s a-waistin. I have a book to finish. So, back at it again in the AM. Starting my workout...

We have Kerry with us tonight. Woohoo! I cleaned the patio today. Swept it. Hosed it down. It looks soooo much nicer. Ready to use—almost!—for the coming summer season when it’s so nice outside in the evenings. We used it a ton last year. The only thing that’s missing...
