I did get my tablecloth made yesterday, but I threw out my back doing it. It was a rainy, miserable day, and I didn’t have any dry kindling. So no fire, and I sat in a weird position while hemming. And I hit hyperfocus, so I hand-stitched that hem for two straight hours with no […]

Well, I did it, I found a writing table. I am, in fact, sitting here now. No, no pictures yet. I’ll get there though. It’s a nice, old, maple table. Missing the leaf, so it’s smallish, and round. I have six chairs, but can only fit three. The others will come in handy, I’m sure. […]

Started to get going yesterday, only to get hit with a migraine. So I went to bed. Got up this morning, ready to fix that damn drawer, but I had, indeed, bought the wrong size drawer slide. At this point, I did consider sitting down to write, but my husband gave an off the cuff […]

So we didn’t get the projected 16 inches of snow. We got 22. In under 15 hours. We had branches snapping, trees falling, and intermittent internet for two days after the storm finally ended. All in all, one for the worst winter storms I’ve been through, and certainly the worst since I left the snowbelts […]

As I closed my eyes last night, I realized I hadn’t blogged, but in my defense, it was a really weird day. It started with the banked fire going smokey at 4 am after a night of tossing and turning on my bad back. So bad sleep, early start, and lots of smoke. By the […]

Yesterday was all ice and wind, today we got the snow. But today is a not a lazy day… well not as lazy. The kids have chores and I’ll be checking some things off my to do list, including writing. My fire is already going, but I need to charge my headphones, especially with the […]

The kids are home and I’m embracing the snow day. No chores, just fun. That said, I’m candying my ginger harvest before I nap the afternoon away. Anyway, I’ll be back at it tomorrow.

We’ve had a wet, if snowless winter so far, but that all changed on Saturday. I woke up ready to go shopping for projects and my table, only to find several inches outside and more coming. And that’s about how it’s going to be the rest of this week.So, no walking the dogs, no writing […]

While out and about yesterday, I saw a promising table at one of our larger thrift stores. Small but I don’t something huge. That invites clutter. I plan on something just big enough for my laptop and snacks. If it does work out, I need to find a chair for it… Anyway, I need a […]

I did not find my writing table at the second-hand store yesterday. However, I did still finish the next Chelsea story. I do need to find a comfy place to write though. My couch, by my wood burning stove, is comfy, but not for writing. I have no idea how I used to write like […]
