A Smattering Of Blither

My favorite words today:  smattering, splattered, aggressively opinionated, doting, blither, blithely, novelling, and serum sickness.     I warned you. It may be getting boring to those of you who come here semi regularly only to be told how many words I am into the novel, but have patience, when November ends so does the adventure.   Either [...]

Brillante Weblog Premio-2008

Oh how awesome! How did I miss following through on this cool nomination from Krista clear back in August? Maybe it was because I was in Seattle being Grandma that month.

I Dread

Mind Under Matter

Today has been a reversed “Mind over Matter” day.    “If I don’t mind, then it must not matter.” For instance, do I mind if there is a basket full of laundry to be folded and it’s sitting in the middle of my sofa where I and anyone who walks in the front door can see [...]
