What a Feeling!

Yesterday the three of us, Juju, Simon and I worked outside for about 7 hours trying to get the garden started, cleaning up debris that the previous owners ignored for centuries. Yes centuries. And still there is more. I'm not sure about Juju and Simon but my body is killing me. Ugh! I did however get some good sleep and some bad sleep, either way sleep is good, especially since I didn't take Nyquil or Tylenol PM's in order to get it. I'm awake now and when I logged on I had a message from Simon.

Good morning beautiful. How was your night? Mine was wonderful with you by my side. When I, open my eyes I see your sweet face. It's a good morning beautiful day.
Hello baby. It's 5 in the morning and I can't seem to fall asleep again. I'm lying next to you, listening to your sweet sound of embrace and I can't help but smile. I want to wrap my arm around you and cuddle you like crazy, but that would just wake you up and that's not what I want. It is moments like this that I realize how much I really love you, and even though I'll never be able to come close with my words, I'll sure try to show you each and every day. You've changed my life in so many ways and I can't even tell you how happy that makes me and how much I appreciate that. It's like trying to shop for something that you will never find. Some things are just impossible to explain, they just are. So I'll turn around now, wrap my arm around your beautiful self and try to go back to sleep. My fingers now need a rest from all the typing. It's hard work, I'm telling you. I love you my sweet Kelly and I'll be seeing you soon. Til the morning...

How sweet is that? He's so loving. I have the best family in the world. Well Juju and Simon are my close family and they are the best. Thank you hubby for starting my day off with a smile. And to my Juju I hope work is treating you well and that you feel a least a little better today. I love you both more than you know.

The garden is started, the patio frame is in, now we need more dirt for three of the raised garden beds and less dirt for the patio so we can fill it in with cement. We already got a new grill. New house, new grill, big and beautiful. Simon's happy about that, silly man. Things are coming along. I'm quite happy with my life at the moment. I just wish I was in better shape, not only physically but emotionally as well. I'm still trying to fight the good fight against cigarettes, so far though they seem to be beating me. I'll get them, you just watch me. Till next time. Write on!

Current Projects

The only thing I've been working on as far as writing goes is Cutthroat. However I've come to the conclusion that I want to start a new short story centering around the Halloween holiday. Why? Hell if I know I just know that I want to write a scary story, horror, something sci-fi, who knows, I sure don't. So I'm going to continue working on Cutthroat and come up with an idea for this new story. Unfortunately my ideas book doesn't have any ideas in the categories I wish to pursue. I guess it's time to step outside the box, in order to get this story started. Hopefully it won't turn into a novel by the time I'm done rambling. Write On!

Superfood?

So I read this article recently about Sardines being a super food and that many people don't even bother with it. OK first of all, eww small tiny fishiness in a can of oil or some mustardy sauce. They are only fish right? Some of the ones I've seen still have their heads on them. Yuck! Okay I've never really tried them.(But still?) The point I'm trying to make is they claim to be a super food, they are suppose to keep you healthy. My father who is going to be 70 years old this year loves sardines, absolutely loves them and he is still battling prostate cancer. Super food my ass. And where are all the animal rights activist? Hmm I've seen groups for cats, dogs, geese, and frogs on the verge of extinction, but I have never heard anything about a group protesting fishermen. Fish are breathing creatures too? So burgers and ribs and pork chops are bad for us, hell even chicken is bad for us but fish isn't? It doesn't matter that we kill so much a fish a day, for food when we can all just be vegetarians and live off the land like normal, non psychotic animal killing maniacs? Just my opinion.


Here is a link to the article I read. You know just in case you want to check it out for yourself.

What's Going On?

Nothing much today. I'm just hanging out at home. Did some cleaning and now I'm playing around on the internet. I'm addicted to Farmville, how sad is that? Yes I haven't much of a life. But hopefully this evening I can get to some writing. For the most part I think I want my murderer to be female. But hey you never know what will come at me while I'm writing. My novel is coming along, slowly but it's coming. I'm going to take my family's advice and not rush it. (Honestly I've been rushing it a little) But hey can you blame me? I'm in a hurry to find out who done it, just like my readers. I say readers like I have a following. Ha! Talk about arrogance. I have no following but I have heart and that is what is going to make me a successful writer one day. One day. Much respect.

My Latest Masterpiece

So I'm working on my latest novel, Cutthroat and I'm kinda stuck. I didn't bother writing on it for about a month because I thought if I gave it a little time and come back to it, the creative side of my brain would jump start. Did it? Sure I got a few paragraphs in but it's not flowing like I wanted it to. But I'm going to keep pounding it out until something gives me a jump. It's going to be an excellent novel, yes I know that sounds a bit arrogant, but I have to believe that whatever it is that drives me is producing some greatness someone down the line. Wish me luck.

A New Day

So I woke up today feeling a little bit better than yesterday, as with yesterday and the previous day. That is good news, being that I am going to have to plant my garden soon. I'm super excited and yes I know I'm said that but as the time gets closer I get even more excited. My garden is going to be beautiful, hopefully. I'm keeping a positive attitude and I'm researching a lot trying to get everything right. With everything though you never will know the end result until you try and with trial and error there is plenty that can go wrong. So here I am planning and plotting (get it plotting? Whatever) to start really soon. I can't wait.

Sick Right Now

I've been sick recently and then I got better and now I'm feeling all congested and I'm so fucking sick of it. Man Michigan weather is horrible sometimes. You get excited about the season's changing and then a smack in the face when you wake up to snow. Okay maybe there isn't any snow on the ground this morning but it was wet and cold outside and it is doing nothing for my congestion. So what am I rambling on about anyway? I'm pissed off that my body isn't bouncing back like it use to. I'm getting old and another birthday is upon me and for the first time I'm not happy with getting older.

On top of all that I'm having trouble with my addiction to cigarettes. I've been wanting to quit, to feel and breathe better, but since we've been stressed out so much in the pass couple months I can't even slow down. I wanted to be smoke free by my birthday, well as of right now I don't think it's going to happen, although that is still my goal. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I can have the will power to do it. So even though I feel like shit right now I'm trying to remain positive. So here's to a smoke free birthday, feeling younger than my actual age and keeping a positive attitude. Who's with me?
