I made some time to head out to a nearby nature reserve to watch the sunset twice last week and made some photographs while I was there.
Sunday Sum-Up: June 4, 2023
And I'm back! Not that I really went anywhere these past couple of weeks. I was still at home, but a good deal of my daily free time was dedicated to finishing off the big story I'd been working on since about February of last year. I'd made it a goal to get the second … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: June 4, 2023
Sunday Sum-Up(ish)
No update this week! Too busy writing! It's been great! But here's a photo of Mina, because I know you're just here for her: We've had a lot of snuggle breaks during the writing sessions, so she's been getting plenty of love and scritchies. Add that to the beautiful days we've had this week that … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up(ish)
Sunday Sum-Up: May 21, 2023
Stressful week. Things were forgotten. Fortunately, no mistakes were made. Or if there were, they were minor mistakes. Will next week be less stressful? It had better be! A couple of things will be resolved on Monday, so there's that. Also fortunately: the forgotten things were definitely not critical- there were two blog-related things I … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 21, 2023
Sunset
Last Friday, a line of severe thunderstorms moved through the area. There were tornadoes and flash flooding in other parts of the state, but my city avoided all of that. We avoided getting any rain, too, which was a little sad but we did end up with a beautiful sunset. I decided to head toward … Continue reading Sunset
Sunday Sum-Up: May 14, 2023
All morning on Friday, we heard that the afternoon would be terribly stormy. There would be high winds and hail and possibly tornadoes, too. So at work, we were prepared to lock up at a moment's notice and hide from any tornadoes or other major storms. All afternoon and into the evening, it would be … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 14, 2023
Am I Traveling Like Ingmar Bergman?
Last week, I published a post entitled, 'Am I Traveling Like Wes Anderson?' in which I took a fun little video trend wherein people were making videos in the style of Wes Anderson. So I did the same sort of thing with my own photographs, and it was fun. Then LA from the blog Waking … Continue reading Am I Traveling Like Ingmar Bergman?
April Summary, May Preview
So April was a month. Mostly okay with a dash of spending a whole lot of money on a new car. But now I feel like I can more safely go places since the new car doesn't make a lot of strange noises, or have annoying tires that like to get really low unexpectedly. I'm … Continue reading April Summary, May Preview
Sunday Sum-Up: May 7, 2023
Another halfway decent week around here. We finally got a bit of rain, which we've desperately needed, since we're going into the second or third year of drought. It was nice to have a couple of misty, rainy days that ended with a bit of sun. Hopefully, we'll get more rainy days next week. They're … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 7, 2023
Am I Traveling Like Wes Anderson?
There is a fun little fad I've seen going around Instagram over the past week or so where people make videos as though they're in a Wes Anderson film. My favorites have been about a guy visiting his favorite lighthouse, one from Barnes and Noble, and a local video company showing off some of their … Continue reading Am I Traveling Like Wes Anderson?
