Another weekend has come and gone, and with it comes the end of August. Where has the time gone? Didn't August just start? With the end of August also comes the deadline of all the goals I had for August, and, er, well... *Clears throat, looks off innocently* Can I skip talking about that? Let's … Continue reading Goal Crunching

Dreams Do Come True
Thunderstorms are amazing. I get to watch one as I fall asleep tonight and the lightning show is pretty damn awesome, so are the bangs coming with you. This might be the best thunderstorm I've had all year. Anyways, now that the energy off of this storm gave me the kick in the rear to … Continue reading Dreams Do Come True

The deadline for that … Continue reading This Is It

I did write every day, but I didn't finish the … Continue reading Scarping Versus Scraping
Eight Days

My main characters decided to really throw me a couple curveballs though in where the story was headed, but it's a good thing I believe. Where … Continue reading Eight Days
Taking A Chance
The yard sale is over. Finally. Thankfully. However, it didn't go as well as I had hoped. After all the stress, hassle, extreme lack of sleep, worry, anger, frustration, and work, I still came home with 90% of the stuff I took down to sell. *Sigh* Somehow it didn't seem worth it now. Since I … Continue reading Taking A Chance
