It's Monday And I Can't Think Of A Title
Mon Jan 09 2006


Well, we have the Monday morning well in hand here.

The dishwasher sloshes quietly, the washing machine churns, I just ran the vacuum cleaner all around to pick up the weekend detritus and I'm about to bake some cookies.

Goodness me, I might even do a little digging in the garden this afternoon to make my first attempt this year to discourage the Bermuda grass.

I started a new felted bag a few days ago. I'm using up all my scraps of yarn. I did have to dye a couple of hanks to make up the difference. I think I am going to like this one. A kind of patchwork bag. I am attracted to the Puritan frugalness of it. A bag that may lack panache, but makes up for it in virtue.

Writing ideas are swarming around in my head like angry bees now. I am really going to have to set aside some time to put them on paper. I don't know what I am waiting for. I think I know why writers go on retreat. Sometimes you need to get away from your pressing familiar chores and obligations so you can focus on one thing.

Don't see that happening anytime soon for me, so I figure I will just have to suck it up and do it here amid the cat and dog, laundry, shopping, bill paying, cooking, gardening, circus that is my life.

Ahem....

sharpens pencil....


Once upon a time . . .

    If you had a private diary, you could sit and type your ideas. But on the other hand, you're a writing person, so I guess you need to have pad and pen handy.

    Me? If I have write something, it doesn't get writ. Except rent checks and the like.

    And I'm getting a little desperate for some laundry time, too. Maybe tomorrow.

    Shalom

    "Once upon a time......."

    ....in a land far far away lived a cat with as many names as she had moods. Though her real name was Jasmine to many she was simply known as Your Highness; to others she was....well let's just say some names were not very kind. Her closest friends however,called her Jazzy.

    To the casual observer Jasmine appeared to be a typical cat, but looks can be deceiving. Jasmine was anything but typical. She was......

    Your turn. :)

    You still sound fairly bursting with energy. Lots happening around your place. I agree. Writer's retreats are great for just writing. ;-)
