Actually, the coffee pot is empty now. I spent part of the morning sleeping late after staying up WAY TOO LATE looking at social media, and part of it reading “The Last Straw” by Bryant Holsenbeck on the front porch. My neighbor, Mike, came over and is excited about the possibility of transforming some of…

I’m still trying to get back to a normal sleep schedule after my steroid shot on Wednesday. Wow, I’ve never had such side effects before. Last night I got a full deep sleep finally after I took a melatonin, so I’ll going to do that earlier in the evening tonight. I haven’t had this much…

In which I’m thinking about how I “should” go to the farmers’ market, but I’m drinking coffee on the front porch and writing this instead. I wish I had more self-discipline when it comes to doing things in the mornings. Or evenings. Or during the day. Speaking of which, I’m heading back to my therapist…

It’s gonna be a hot one today with the heat index well over 100 F. I plan to get my groceries bought right after I write this post and then I’ll settle back into playing in my studio and cleaning house. I did both yesterday and it was really one of the nicest days I’ve…

Well, I got way behind on my “special event” postings. I’ve actually been to the Tapestry Weavers South retreat since and finished writing my Mexico travel blogs from Lake Waccamaw over a month later. So I have some catching up to do, which leaves me to wonder – why am I doing it at all…

Well, as you probably know, I try to keep this a politics free space most of the time, for my own sanity’s sake. BUT YAY! And this was too funny not to share, and I still love Bernie. Anyway, I am still working on the Mexico posts. I have most of them written and I’m…

I really am working on the Mexico travel posts. I’m almost ready to post the ones from Querétaro. I wrote a lot of it when I was in the throes of a very bad mood so I need to edit that and add the photos I’ve edited and uploaded. I’ve vented a lot of this…

I see that it’s been nearly a month since I’ve posted. I was busy and anxious, then we went to Mexico for 11 days, and now I have the “back to real life” blues. I’m going to post the Mexico trip in about a dozen posts, postdating them as has been my practice for our…

^A book cover collage I made ten days ago at a craft event at Oden Brewing Company. I’m starting to feel the relief that comes with the wind-down of the academic year. At this point, I am done with a lot of the major budget stuff. Handling the budget for large amounts of money is…

I can’t think of anything much I did this week that was very interesting, but Sandy and I have gotten some stuff out of here to various thrift stores and charities and sold some of our American Revolution reenactment stuff. This was the weekend of the Battle of Guilford Courthouse reenactment, and as it often…
