I wasn't sure I was going to post today. I confess that I spent the better part of last week in a post election funk - and then once I pulled myself out of it, I discovered my computer was having issues. It's constantly running at 100% on the C drive, I'm also unable to … Continue reading A Little Light…

Happy Halloween!

This is the final week of my first real estate class, and the mid term for my third class (the second one finished two weeks ago, and the fourth one doesn't start till the end of the month). Despite all the studying I've been doing for the tests, I have been able to get some … Continue reading Choice…
It’s Lonely Up Here…
Earlier this summer I mentioned that there might be a strike at Hubby's work in a few months. The union contract is coming up, and so far negotiations between the union and the company are iffy at best. Let's just say there's been lots of drama that has made me nervous enough that I've started … Continue reading It’s Lonely Up Here…
Friday Frivolity with Christina Olson — Jewel E. Leonard
April 9, 2013. 3:37 PM PST. Facebook Messenger blinks with an incoming missive. It is all of five sentences long and ends with an off-handed suggestion: “…you could turn it into a steampunk paranormal romance.” Back then, Steampunk wasn’t a blip on my radar, although I have been a fan of paranormal and romance (and … Continue reading Friday Frivolity with Christina Olson — Jewel E.

Hello more free time! So far I've been putting my new found freedom to good use. I've been working on … Continue reading Cruising Along…
That That Had Had
I have a nasty habit of using 'had had' and 'that that' when I'm writing. It's not really wrong really (at least I can't find anything that says it is on ye old Google university) but it can be problematic. It disrupts the flow and throws people out of the story. And yet, I still … Continue reading That That Had Had
Short and Sweet…
Last week, I wasn't able to post because it was the end of the month, and the end of the month always means a certain level of craziness - and things have gotten even crazier since the new system was launched. So I was asked to go back into the office to work. Supposedly it … Continue reading Short and Sweet…
Another Quickie…
Our baby boy had a sleep study on Monday to see if we could take him off of his apnea monitor. Unfortunately neither the boyo nor I slept very well - he didn't like the sensors stuck on his face, and the hospital bed they had for parents to sleep on was all kinds of wonky. … Continue reading Another Quickie…
A New Start?
For the past few years I've been blogging over on Blogspot. I prefer it because it gives you a little more creative freedom to design your blog how you want to - things Wordpress charges you for. But then a friend decided to do a round robin using WordPress, so I had to sign up for an … Continue reading A New Start?
