Not so quiet day
I knew today wasn’t going to be hugely productive. Rainy day with the kids home? Right. No words, and currently lots of doubts about participating in NaNoWriMo next month, but I decided not to fret about that. So I took … Continue reading
By hook or by crook
Quiet Sunday — sleeping in, daughter’s soccer, rereading some of my favorite bits in a friend’s unpublished paranormal romance to get my thoughts straight, laundry, and my daily sketch. Today’s Inktober prompt was “crooked.” This broken stump was around one … Continue reading

A not-so-shy sky
So I was really happy to find the perfect photo from our trip this summer for the Inktober prompt of “sky.” We were traveling west across Nebraska, the clouds were all kinds of threatening, and there were tornado warnings both … Continue reading
Not ready for the weekend
How can one not be ready for the weekend? Quite simply, still too many things on my to-do list for the week still untouched. On the other hand, the weekend does mean sleeping in — and it’s a three-day weekend, … Continue reading

Broken bone
Not my broken bone, but a dinosaur’s — apatosaurus, I think. This broken femur fossil is on display at the geology museum of the Colorado School of Mines. This was one of our stops this summer on vacation. To the … Continue reading
Inktober begins
My feelings about today are complicated. Dad would’ve been 89 today. And I’ve been under the weather all weekend, so my energy was low — as in, I made it to the grocery store this morning, then napped all afternoon … Continue reading
The heat is gone
At least we’re getting a temporary break in the weather, although it’s supposed to be back above 80 by this time next week. The past couple days have been more productive, with a few things done off my list, including … Continue reading
