Day 2,811: Vestibule 2

Day 2,811: Vestibule 2

So, Coco improved a bit today. Not a lot, but a bit. Last night her nystagmus, which is the technical/medical term for uncontrolled eye movement, was really intense. Very rapid from side to side, and the movements were wide and pronounced. Today, much better....

Day 2,810: Vestibular Syndrome

Day 2,810: Vestibular Syndrome

Coco has idiopathic canine vestibular syndrome. It came on suddenly. This morning. When I woke up, I noticed she couldn’t keep her balance like normal. She would stumble, and when she tried to shake her body and head, she’d fall over. She biffed it on the stairs. And...

Day 2,809: Wall

Day 2,809: Wall

I finally hit a wall today. Lol. I was due. For real, I have absolutely CRUSHED my writing this past week+. Eight days, I think? Maybe nine. I’ve written almost 100 pages. I’ve never written 100 pages that fast before. Today…I’ve written zero. I was supposed to write...

Day 2,808: Boom

Day 2,808: Boom

Watched 2001: A Space Odyssey tonight. Was SUPPOSED to be in 4K, but I put in the normal HD Blu Ray by accident. Oooohhh well. Win some you lose some. The movie is still dope. Wrote my pages today. Boom. Did my Netflix work. Boom. Podcasting was great. Boom....

Day 2,807: Seventy-Five

Day 2,807: Seventy-Five

Today was so, ever ever so so close to being a disaster on the productivity front. I was burned out. Not burned out because I’d actually done anything more than I was capable, but because resistance was treating me like a motherfucker. I had a rough night’s sleep....

Day 2,806: Five in a row

Day 2,806: Five in a row

I’ve done it. I’ve finally done it: strung together five straight days of hitting ten pages written, or more. I’ve never done that before. This is the first time ever. I am exhausted. I will say that. My eyes hurt from so much screen time. Although…it’s not really...

Day 2,805: Nine, Seventeeen

Day 2,805: Nine, Seventeeen

Nine years ago today, we adopted Cooper from Perfect Pet Rescue. It’s crazy it was that long ago. He still looks like a puppy. Acts like one, too. He never really changed much from when we got him to the adult he became. Granted, he was already about nine months old...

Day 2,804: Geodesic

Day 2,804: Geodesic

Happy 4th! I wrote 8 pages this morning in my two hours. That’s…a high water mark, I think. Very happy with that. The rest of my day didn’t lend itself to getting the last two pages done that I wanted to, but that’s okay. Tomorrow is going to be a big writing day, I...

Day 2,803: Teetering

Day 2,803: Teetering

I’m teetering on the edge right now of running away with the rest of this book. In a good way! Not a bad way. I can see the home stretch. It’d take me just over two weeks at 10 pages a day to finish the thing. I mean…that would be me sitting in bed just a WEEK from...

Day 2,802: A Rising Tide

Day 2,802: A Rising Tide

Have the anxious feeling tonight of soon-to-be more on my plate than I can handle. I didn’t feel like that today, though! Just right now. Because I’m sitting down in bed thinking about all the things I need to get done, and it’s more stuff than I have time available...
