Found a bit of rhythm to start the year with the writing. Thank god. I really, really didn’t want to write this morning…but I did it anyway. And it wasn’t actually that hard. I knew where I’d left off. I knew what I wanted to tackle next. I just had to get my ass out...

Wow. I am…really close to 3,000 consecutive days of writing a blog post/journal entry, whichever one you want to call it. That is CRAZY. I genuinely had no idea when I started this little project, or routine, back in 2013 that it would go this long or take me this...

Another super productive day. Got my ass out of bed. Wrote. Outline is going well. This first part of the story…might work best as a little interstitial novella? I don’t know. We’ll see how long it is when I write it. I can see it still working as the first act of the...

Today was one of those days I did all the things. Workout? Check. Writing? Check. And it was a great writing session, too. Netflix work? Check. Nap? Check. And crucial. Painting work? Check. AND got to listen to the Warriors on the radio as they beat Miami. AND got to...

Coco gives me kisses on my nose every chance she gets. If my face is at the level of her tongue, she’s licking my nose as hard as she possibly can. She just has this “lick” energy at night sometimes. She has to get it out before she can go to sleep. It’s as close as...

Lots I want to do this year. As always, we’ll see how it goes, and as always, I guarantee that I will set myself too lofty…but that’s okay. It’s who I am. Worked hard today. Slept in, though, too. Will probably do a bit of that again tomorrow since it’s late right...

The sun came out today. I’m going to take that as a good omen for the year to come. Not that 2021 was doom and gloom. No…that honor was decidedly reserved for 2020. 2021 was good to me. Amazing to me, in fact. I took some steps forward this past year that I’ve been...

Rained all day again today! Painted all day again today, too 😛 It’s coming along, the painting! I’d say we’re about halfway done painting everything we want to. That’s a little daunting, but you know what? We can do it. I enjoy doing the work, honestly, even though...

Rained almost all day today. There was just enough dry in the morning to take the pups out and go for a walk, eat breakfast myself…and then the rain began. I painted all day. Who would’ve thought just doing two rooms (three when we’re all said and done, but two so...

Painted today! Re-doing some stuff, and digging in to roll up our sleeves and get our hands nice and dirty. My hands are speckled with primer and dry…but I made decent progress today. Doing several rooms, so I have my work cut out for me. Need to go harder at it...
