The week where the neighbors do their level best to scare the hell out of my cats is now over. As I had no plans to go anywhere for Independence Day and I don't like lighting fireworks off, I spent the evening indoors with headphones on listening to music while trying to write and read … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: July 5, 2020

Sunday Sum-Up: June 28, 2020
So I've had a good week. Nothing mind-blowingly happy happened, but nothing horrible happened, either, and I got a lot of things done on my day off. Work was busy, but not so busy I wanted to scream (although as soon as you notice that a few of the light bulbs have gone out, it's … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: June 28, 2020

Ever have one of those weeks that gets away from you? Like you wake up on Monday morning, and then you blink and it's Saturday night and you feel like you've gotten pretty much nothing done? That was my week. Fun. I blame the heat for killing my focus. We have another hot week ahead. … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: June 14, 2020
Sunday Sum-Up: June 7, 2020
So. That was a week. Here's a day-by-day rundown, because that's what it needs. Sunday: I spent the morning in debate: do I stay home because of COVID-19, or do I go to the Black Lives Matter demonstration at the capitol in the afternoon? Eventually, I had to act as my conscience dictated and went … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: June 7, 2020

Remember last weekend, how I wanted a reset to see about having a better week? Well, I had a better week, mostly. A rainy holiday weekend, easy days of work, and I've been sleeping better. So for me, a great week. Obligatory Mina Photo: Don't let that adorable face and those big eyes fool you. … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 31, 2020

It's already May 10th. Wow. May's flying by in a way that not even April managed. We're going to blink, and it will be June. I wonder what sort of madness 2020 has in store for us then? Obligatory Mina Photo: I have to close the bathroom door when I leave for work these … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 10, 2020
Sunday Sum-Up: May 3, 2020
So as it turns out, when I have shortened hours at work, am stuck at home, and am not working on a 70,000-word story, I have a lot of free time. So I read. A lot. I did other things, too, but reading was the bulk of my week. Obligatory Mina Photo: The windows have … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: May 3, 2020
Sunday Sum-Up: April 26, 2020
It's been a quiet week around here. I baked, I cooked, I wrote, I read. I'm quite proud of the cooking and baking. I don't do very much of either, but I bought a cookbook written for people in the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA). They do medieval/early modern reenactments, and their goal is to … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 26, 2020

I thought it would take about a thousand years to get through April, but it's moving right along. Which is fine. It's starting to look like there might be a faint point of light waaaaaay down at the end of this stay-at-home tunnel... Obligatory Mina Photo: On Wednesday afternoon, I was brewing some tea. It's … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: April 19, 2020
Sunday Sum-Up: February 23, 2020
Busy week! And one full of adulting. I had a dentist's appointment. I got the car's oil changed. I filed my taxes. Did laundry. Dusted and swept. All that boring stuff. I'm hoping this week brings less not-fun stuff. Like a day where I can sleep in. That would be great. Obligatory Mina Photo: On … Continue reading Sunday Sum-Up: February 23, 2020
