The Snowman

Dec18

One of my favorite stories of the winter season is The Snowman. In the movie version, the music is beautiful.

I was out in the fog and then it started raining at 5 am (no rain forecast at all), while I was putting out the trash and cutting down a boxwood shrub that had died this summer. I’m not supposed to do yard work for a year, but it was driving me crazy seeing that poor dead plant in the yard. And since it was trash day, I wanted to get it out.

Hope you are doing well! My counts were better, platelets normal, so after Christmas, they’re starting me back on a half dose of the maintenance chemo. So I have another week’s reprieve. 🙂

Have a fun day at whatever you’re up to today!

A Little Christmas Humor

Dec17

Well, I need some humor in my life.

I’ll see what my blood results are today and learn if I’m going back on chemo. I suspect I will be.

Hope you don’t have a mouse in the house unless it’s a pet.

Have a wonderfully fun day!

Whimsical Deer at Christmas

Dec16

Still working on the Christmas story!

It’s 38 this morning, so it feels more Christmassy. 🙂 It felt like 27 yesterday so it’s warmer today.

Have a great day!!

Elves and their Furry Friends

Dec14

Do you have a hodgepodge of colorful decorations, or are you color coordinated? I’ve collected so much over the years that my color palette is eclectic.

I am still working on Christmas Cougar Catastrophe. I haven’t figured out how to end it. I’ve written over 150 books, so I try to make sure each is very different from the others. So I keep thinking and thinking and thinking. lol

Have a beautiful day while I go back to thinking!

Mine!

Dec13

If the bear says the presents are his, then they are his. lol

Okay, I’m about ready to get to work on the Christmas story.

Hope your day is lots of fun!

Did an Elf Bring Your Tree?

Dec12

An AI company used a bunch of our books to “train” their AI without our permission, so they’re having to pay us a little money for each of the titles. Still filling out the form. Some of my rights have been reverted to me, some are listed as publishers but they’re publishing platforms, not publishers, so they shouldn’t get any money for it, some are solely mine–yay for indie publishing! And some I have to share with publishers. But then also lawyers. So I don’t expect much back. Though apparently they’ve made billions off our titles.

At least we might get a little compensation, which I hadn’t expected at all. The little guy doesn’t usually get anything. I really thought it wasn’t for real when I first heard about it.

Well, I’m happily at 30K on the word count for Cougar Christmas Catastrophe. Still trying to figure out a satisfying ending that’s different from all my other books.

Hope your day is blissful!

Elves on the Shelf

Dec11
A little pink for Christmas.

My blood counts were better, which is good because it shows that when I’m not on chemo, they can rally again. Otherwise, it looks like the cancer has come back. I’m still short of breath because of the low red blood cell counts.

They’re not starting me on chemo this week, that will allow my counts to rise more.

Because I was so busy with appointments and such, I only managed to get 1,000 words yesterday. I’ve been working out in my mind how to end the story. Haven’t quite figured it out yet. At 4 am, when the dogs wanted to go out, I was thinking about a new scenario. I will try writing it and see if that works.

Off to get to work!

Hope you have a glorious day!

Elves and Their Furry Friends

Dec9

Playing with this picture this morning to post. I need to grocery shop. It’s so cold in the mornings. But I need to go early, when the stores aren’t as crowded. I wear a face mask, but they’re not 100% effective, and even getting a cold can put me at risk of going to the hospital. *sigh*

I’ve been looking up recipes to try and figure out new ways to cook the same old food. Just anything to try and force myself to eat. I finally gained 4 lbs and lost 3. My doctors will not be happy with me. But I have no appetite and have to force myself to eat.

I did manage to get to 25K on the Christmas novella! Still trying to reach the end. At this point, I keep thinking of different ways to end the story, even when I should be sleeping. lol I need to finish it.

Have a delightful day!!!

Little Boy and His Dog

Dec7

It’s actually going to be warmer here today. Yay! Up north, not so much!

I’m up to 20K on Cougar Christmas Catastrophe. 23-25 is a novella. I’m not sure I can finish it at that length so it may be longer! The Halloween novella ended up being 40K, so it became a short novel instead. And that’s okay. I have to finish it, whatever length it takes, to tell the story. 🙂

I’m off to write!

Hope your day isn’t too cold!
