So I started a new story, Nine Lives, which will no doubt fill those who think I shouldn’t write anything new with the proper outrage. But I wanted to have something a little fun to write for myself, though there will be elements of angst. It’s still me. Honestly it’s another idea that sort of became more than I intended when I first thought about it while lying awake at night.
I still intend to update All I Ever Wanted this week. Not sure if I will get to Unbonded until next week. I also hope to finish my ongoing 100 words story PDQ.
On the personal front I bought a new coffeemaker. There was nothing wrong with my Keuring, honestly, but this one is a Hamilton Beach coffeemaker that can brew a carafe of coffee or a k-cup, both. I loved that idea. I’ve been eyeing it for a bit and finally broke down and got it from QVC because I could spread the payments out between 3 months. I just received it last night. Now I can make pots of coffees for us or for guests or whatever or just a single couple if it’s only me. Plus I’ll probably use less k-cups, which are bad for the environment.
Went and saw A Quiet Place last night. Pretty damn disturbing to be honest. I don’t know which of you has heard about this movie but it is intense and not good for the faint of heart. I heard there is going to be a sequel and I think I may have to skip that.
The last few days have been cool here and yesterday, on May 01, we had some rain. It was shocking. Funny thing is it’s supposed to be 85 Friday. Thus is the enigma of California.
Speaking of Friday I have a follow-up Doctor’s appointment I do not want to go to. Sigh. And he wants me to have some tests. Ordinary tests for those my age but still. I hate tests and doctors. I haven’t made any of those appointments yet so I will have to lie a bit Friday and say I did and then I will make them later.
Don’t even ask me when I last went to the dentist. You don’t want to know! LOL.

Doctors. Booo. That’s all I’ll say.
I’ve heard that movie is quite disturbing. I had already decided to nope it and your opinion just sealed that for me.
I am loving the new story! Anyone who says bad things can suck it. I really cannot wait to see where you take it! 🙂
And also the 100 word fic. Yay!

Yeah definitely not a movie for you. Which is not to say it’s not well done, it most assuredly is. Too well done, lol.
And thanks! Part of writing has to be fun for me too. ❤

Cute kitty picture 🙂 Is it your inspiration for lil kitty Spock?
Your Hamilton Beach coffeemaker sounds cool. I’m not a coffee person but I can see why that would be a good machine to have.
Yeah, no desire to see a Quiet Place. Read the summary on wiki though lol
Its in the 70s/low 80s here. Me and my female co-workers are dressed professionally but some of the guys get away with shorts and tshirts >.< not fair
Boo to doctors!
Also, I have not seen the dentist in a few years. lost my discount dental thingy and haven't had the money to get it reinstated or the money to go to a visit so…dentist is on the backburner for now lol

That is one cute kitty! Looks like a sweetheart! I like Nine Lives! I can see Spock as a cat.
Looking forward to reading your updates.
That coffeemaker sounds cool. The kcups are bad for the environment and expensive!
I’m definitely not seeing that movie. I don’t do creepy. Disturbs me too much.
Good luck at the doctor. I’m a nurse and I’m a terrible patient. But sometimes you just have to listen to the doctor!

I’m not sure I like the coffeemaker. Jury is still out. I think I was addicted to my Keurig, so we shall see!

It’s always surprising to me when you say something that alludes to someone writing you upset about starting a new story, etc. I can’t fathom someone being rude and it’s so crazy. I generally get excited when I see you’ve started something new; it’s the promise of new stories. Maybe because I’m content in how reliable you are to update that it doesn’t make me nervous? I’m not sure. As for doctored, I feel you hard on that point.
