Focused on work to clear the way for writing. On Friday, and early Saturday, I also got most of the images my nephew and brother needed done in a way they liked them for Ellis Brush Mowers. I sent off 300 dpi ones to my brother to create a brochure, and put some on the […]

Visits With a Doctor and Friend

Had my Doctor Appointment today. He ordered a scan of many parts of my body to see what is causing my excruciating back pain that only happens occasionally. Fasted so I could have blood tests.

Computer Never Shut Down Takes A Visit to My Favorite Tech

What did I say at the end of yesterday? “Tomorrow is another day, and I hope to be more on track for what I need to get done again.” Well, that didn’t happen quite as I had hoped! I didn’t realize my computer never shut off last night. And this was the second time it […]

Transitioned from Being Stressed to Excited about Possibilities

Gotta quit letting little things stress me out. Lately, I find myself feeling stressed way too much. Not my normal way of dealing with the World. But then my world has been a bit more chaotic than normal. Thankfully I do remember to breathe, step back to look at the situation and figure out what […]

Took a Day OFF in a New Hiking Area

I had no Idea How Really Badly I Needed This! Usually when I do my weekly hike, I work for as many hours the same day. Been a long time that most of a day was spent in a fun way. Got up this morning and was stressing a bit about how and where to […]
