Continuing on,
when all she craved
was to raise the white flag.
That’s called courage.

This one? The long story behind remains untold. The future might get it’s ass kicked. You can knock the girl down. Never count her out. Once again I borrow from your insight.

Aye, indeed it is! I say we raise a glass to that! In my case it is coffee not alcohol…too early in the week for the latter. 😉
Cheers! ^_^

I don’t drink…on work nights. 😉
Still if I had to choose between Alcohol and Coffee, Coffee would always win. I can’t get away from the amazing aroma it gives off or the delicious taste!
Coffee is the best! ^_^

Is amwriting that which you do each morning? Obviously, you have a great routine, and have figured out how to daily feed your blog excellently and quickly, then work on your chapter books. I’m so looking forward to the Earthen Witch series! I read some of the reviews. Sounds terrific!

It’s sort of a strange process. I work on my books, take a break, maybe write a poem, the repeat.

Ah, that definitely makes sense. I’m working on establishing a real routine, because I float differently every day.

It keeps things from being too overwhelming. Little psychological tricks to play on yourself. And they really work.

Thank you for the tips! Loralai starts kindergarten next week, freeing up quite a bit of time. My goal is to do five massages a week (each of which takes a couple hours preparation, clean up, etc), and thirty hours writing. I know I can do it! And doing yoga and swimming can help me to keep getting stronger. Manifestation time.

Best of luck. My son started kindergarten 2 weeks ago. Nice bug going around. Including croup.

Oh no! May you guys get better quickly! I have caught so many of my many kid’s bugs over the last 37 years, almost immune to everything by now. I remember croup well, keeping them in the bathroom with the shower going for steam.

It sure can be. Loralai’s my granddaughter, and my daughter and my three grandkids are moving out to the country in two weeks, so I won’t see my little munchkin so often. Probably still watch her at least one weekend day, though.
So you guys are better? Kindergartners are so sweet. Most of the time. Wonderful age, so much energy!
