Just start writing. Oh, did you read that? Sorry! I was typing to myself again. Out of milk. I can’t drink my coffee black! I drained the last few drops of milk from the bottle Sandy finished off last night. Better to drink my coffee black, or dark, dark brown, than to not drink it…

This day was important in several respects. Partly, because I celebrated receiving my M.A. in Liberal Studies with my husband, Kristina, Deb, Randy, Karl-Heinz, Charlie, Debby, and other MALS classmates and faculty today at a very nice ceremony at the O. Henry Hotel. Partly, because it is my 21st wedding anniversary, but Sandy and I…

Okay, I’m better. The only real reason I write about my headaches, other than simple life journaling, is so if I go to see a health practitioner I can remember better if there is a pattern. The last time a doctor asked me about cluster headaches I didn’t really understand what she was talking about.…

Might have to write this week off too. Stomach problems gone, cluster headaches remain. Any bright spots in between will have to be spent working, gardening, or cleaning house, since it is slightly possible that Mama mia will come up for my graduation ceremony on Friday afternoon.

Aaaaahhhh. It’s been a while. Waking up my brain cells, getting ready for my weekend. When I do a coffee pot post, I plan my day or weekend and write as long as the coffee lasts. Today, I’m going to pick up my milk, go to the farmers’ market and grocery shop, go to McKnight’s…

Planted Amish Paste tomatoes behind garlic. Planted the rest of the mystery heirloom tomatoes and one Yellow Pear tomato around the white Nanking cherry tree. Ate sugar snap peas. Currently drinking a beer. Next: to the studio, to weave off that scarf.

Another device to help me focus: a list of my works in progress. I’ll post about these and photograph as I actually progress. From the oldest to newest might be the best way to go, although I doubt I’ll proceed in this order. Fabulously ugly scarf III – still on the floor loom in the…

I realized that I’m never going to get started again on my artwork until I clean up and reorganize the giganto mess I made in the studio and the happy room before I went to Art and Soul. It’s like a maniac went through everything and tossed it around. Well. I set up a folding…
