Write more, Procrastinate less.

Write more, Procrastinate less.

I swear one of these days I’ll actually write more on this site, instead of posting with months in between. If not years. LOL And it’s not like I don’t have the time to post anything, because I have days off from my daytime job to do just this. I seem to be always making excuses to not do what I say I want to do. Between my daytime job, doing my regular housework, gardening (when the weather is…

My Quarterly Report

Well, seeing as I have a hard time writing on a regular basis, this is as good as it’s gonna get apparently. So, the last time I wrote in here, it was the beginning of a new year. First of January if memory serves me well. Though, let’s be honest here,,, I’m probably gonna have to look back to see when I actually wrote in here after I’ve already published this post. LOL As for a recap, you…

Hello 2022

Well, hello there 2022. I hope you’re settling in nicely. Can we not have a repeat of 2020 and 2021, please. It would be nice to have some sort of normalcy now. This will be a short post, as I think and make notes of what to write for my year in review. So make sure you have your notifications on to get an email of what my thoughts are on the past year. Thanks for popping in. K ❤

Things on my mind

Smile that it happened ~ Dom Sherwood

The other day I had to get bloodwork done, so while I was waiting, a lady who had just done hers exited the side doors.  Because of the masks, I didn’t really recognize her, but she knew me.  Mainly because I forgot my mask in the truck.  We kept our distance and had a nice little chat.

It’s a new normal these days.  Having to carry a mask around with you everywhere you go.  I don’t mind wearing…

Breaking out...

Breaking out…

There’s so many things I’ve always wanted to do with my life, besides getting married and having kids.  Some things I’ve accomplished.  Others, not so much.

Growing up, you’re always asked “what do you want to do?”  And for the longest time, it was an actress.  Something about TV and film fascinated me.  But it was looked down upon.

So then I thought of being one of those stewards aboard…

What day is it again?

What day is it again?

I’m not sure about you all, but there have been days when I have to ask people, or look on my phone, to see what bloody day it is.

This is nuts.  I understand and agree with everything that has had to have happened to keep the virus numbers down, but I miss going to work.  I miss going in and chatting, watching their favorite tv shows they’ve recorded.  I miss coloring, or even playing guitar…

An Interesting 2020

Ok, so 2020 has started off as a semi-fun year.  With some celebrity deaths, which is always the sad part of any year.  But 2020 is not what I had hoped it would be.

Apparently there was a virus going around, but it was hardly heard of (even by media) until it was too late.  And now we’ve got this thing going around the world that’s anything but fun.

The scientists were all warning us too, but…

… Try a different recipe.

So I tried the chocolate shake recipe I got from a friend and took it to work.  Let me tell ya, that takes a required taste.

I wanted to give it an honest try.  And tried very hard to drink this new contraption.  Needless to say, when getting home, I ended up dumping it down the sink.

On the up side, I happen to be on a call with my friend again and told her that I…

Making Changes

Last month, I decided that I needed to change a few things.  Mainly the things I eat.  And it really hit me when I stepped on the scales to see a number staring back at me.  It was something that caught me off-guard.

I knew I had weight on, but I never dreamt that it would be THAT much.

162 POUNDS!!!!

That’s when I knew, things had to change.

So right away, I stopped drinking Pepsi.  That was the…

A Must Read

I came across this article from a friend on Twitter (actually a few of my friends who’s shared it) and had to take a look.  This is exactly how I’ve felt about how dirty Clary, and especially Jace, had been treated in 3B of Shadowhunters.

I know not a lot of you will be interested in this, but for those of us who feel we were mistreated, this will speak volumes to us.

Thank you to Christine for…

2019 Review (sort of)

2019 Review (sort of)

So, I was hoping to have started this back in January.  But remembering what happened 11 months ago is nearly impossible.  So I’ll just write with how my year went.

I’ll most likely go backwards as the earliest memories will be easier to remember, LOL

Well December there was a few things that happened. Besides my birthday, I got a surprise package from a friend who had met Dom Sherwood and had…

New Beginnings...

New Beginnings…

At least I hope so.

There’s times when I sit here for hours, with a few tabs open, and wonder what the hell I’m doing.

I should be writing.  And I have every intention on doing just that.  But here’s the thing, how can I get my funk back to writing (or at least finish what I’ve started) when I have no idea where I want either story to go or to end?

I find myself going to the closet bookstore and…

More Procrastinating, Less Writing

More Procrastinating, Less Writing

So apparently I done the complete opposite since the last post. Typical.  LOL.

I swear I need supervision when I say I’m going to do something.  Oh look!!! Shiny thing.

You would think that I’d get things done that I need to get done with the extra time I’ve got lately.  But ohhhhhh noooooo.  I’m gonna just sit back and do nothing.

I feel bad too as I have 2 projects 1/4 of the ways written, but…

More writing, Less procrastinating

More writing, Less procrastinating

You know when you’ve been submerged into the world of the Wi-Fi when you have nothing accomplished with what books you have started and are just left there in limbo, waiting for you to get off you’re arse (or in this case to sit on it) and start writing to get your projects finished to be published.

And I’m bad at procrastinating. Especially when I’m so bored that I know what I should be doing,…

Shadowhunters poem

I stumbled upon this on twitter written by another talented Shadowhunter fan, Angie.  Thank you for allowing me to share.  ❤

Looks like I found another outlet to share in my obsession. LOL.

You can also give me a follow on Twitter.

Until next time.

Some changes coming.

I’d like to thank everyone who so far has supported my blog site, and getting notices for future posts.  I’m still writing the 2 books I’ve mentioned in past posts, however, I’ve decided to keep this blog site more active is to write some reviews.

My main focus will be Shadowhunters (yes I know they’ve been cancelled) but I will take suggestions as to what else I could write that is of interest…
