I confess I have no idea what to post about this week. I am stuck deep in the trenches, torn between editing and studying for my Real Estate Exam... which is in two days. Pray for me friends - I'm not sure I'll get through this with my sanity intact. Also, send snacks if you … Continue reading Fried and Re-fried…

A Change in Plans…
Last week, I was formatting a novella that will be a part of a serial series for one of my pen names, when I decided to take a look at Createspace and their publishing services. Bad idea. Bad bad idea. Createspace makes everything so simple that it's a breeze. And I was surprised to realize … Continue reading A Change in Plans…
Something Unexpected…
Yet another week of little to no writing. We are still working on getting the house into listing condition - patching holes left by the previous owner (there was one over the bed that they covered up with a piece of cardboard), patching up holes made by us (from installing the new over the range … Continue reading Something Unexpected…
Going Down the List…
It's been another busy week here in the Olson household. We're currently in the midst of getting the house prepped so it can be listed. Thankfully there's not a whole lot that needs to be done - just touching up the paint, washing the walls, and trying to keep chaos to a minimum. That last … Continue reading Going Down the List…
Dropping In…
It's been a crazy crazy week this week. A lot of things are changing - some far more rapidly than we planned on - so to give you a quick run down of everything that is happening: A month ago, the Boyo was diagnosed as Autistic (which wasn't that big of a surprise, honestly...) The … Continue reading Dropping In…
Hot Commodity…
One of my good friends was in town this week. I can't remember if I mentioned this or not, but she's getting married next year, and she's asked me to be a bridesmaid. I've also agreed to sew the bridesmaid dresses. Thankfully she already knew what she wanted - so the last time she was … Continue reading Hot Commodity…
RIP Princess Leia
As a kid, I didn't really care for Princess Leia. Luke and Han and the Taun Tauns were my favorite parts of Star Wars. Who had time for a silly princess even if she wasn't a damsel in distress like so many others? But as I grew up and began to understand how important she … Continue reading RIP Princess Leia
Leaps and Bounds
In the past two weeks, the Boyo's speech has really taken off. It's like a light clicked on in his brain and he is just taking off in all directions. He knows that I'm mom and that my husband is dad now (I, mean, he always knew who we were but he was calling us both da … Continue reading Leaps and Bounds
A little weird…
First off, a very dear friend of mine, Jewel E Leonard, is doing a give away in honor of her new book coming out. You can get the details here! Last week I took the midterm for one of my classes. This week I'm taking a final for another. So, needless to say, I haven't … Continue reading A little weird…
We’re Here to Rescue You
When I wasn't studying, we spent the weekend finally painting the bedroom. It's now a nice solid gray. We're planning on staining the dresser expresso to match my sewing table, and maybe even making a headboard for the bed - which feels a bit foolish since the bed is currently on the floor so Boyo … Continue reading We’re Here to Rescue You
