I have not been writing as much as I'd like. Sometimes life just gets in the way, and makes it really hard to sit down and write uninterrupted. I've been spending a lot of evenings doing farm work, which is my normal writing time. Then I come in to write something, but I am interrupted. Not by an a[...]
How's quarantine life? I'm glad you asked! It turns out I'm one of those people who was already living a life in quarantine. The only changes are that I'm not making plans for the weekend or going to the gym. I really miss the gym. It was part of my routine, and it made me feel good. Naturally, sin[...]
This isn't a current events blog, so I don't usually bring up current events. But with everything going on, I decided I will bring it up. COVID-19 It's scary out there. A virus which we still don't know much about is spreading like wildfire, and we can't contain it. This feels lik[...]
The Dressage Chronicles If you're in the mood for a light read about believable characters in the dressage world, you need to read this book. I got it several years ago, and have read it multiple times. I'm working on another rereading as something light before I figure out what I w[...]
Let's get one thing out of the way - I like Weekly Brief better than Weekly Round-Up. I thought Round-Up sounded good at first, but now it just reminds me of the weed killer. It'll be a "Brief" from here on out. Hopefully it won't continually make me think of underpants. We'll cross that bridge whe[...]
Almost Walking The little baby is so close to walking on her own! She now blitzes around with the help of a walker. She's so fast, it's hard to get a non-blurry photo of her. She can't stand on her own, so she'll crawl over to the walker, and get up on her knees to push it around. S[...]
Sometimes I have a busy week, and I get so much accomplished. I look back at what I've done with pride. Other weeks, I feel really busy, and then when I look back on what I've done, I can't really figure it out. I was definitely doing something... but what was it? Who knows. Maybe I'll figure it ou[...]
It's been a while since I did one of these! Thanks for having me. Glad to be back. Empty Mansions: The Mysterious Life of Huguette Clark and the Spending of a Great American Fortune Whew, that's a mouthful! I did say it's hard for me to relax/read much anymore, but I still do when I can[...]
Ever had a week where it just feels like there's too much going on, and existance is just so hard? That was me this last week. I need to get back in the groove though, and keep moving onward! So let's get back into it with the weekly round up! Farm Work It feels like any spare moments I ha[...]
Helmets I ordered my new helmet, and am eagarly awaiting it's arrival. It's taking a little bit longer than I expected... maybe today it'll get here? I definitely need a new helmet. I tried on my old helmet and I'm shocked at how loose it is. I don't think there's any protection left there. I a[...]
