If you can stand another post from me, here it is!

Of course today I posted a short story called Always Shall Be on AO3. Most of you have already read it. I was contacted on tumblr last night by a reader who follows me there and discovered my secret identity (kidding). Anyway, she asked if I would write something to go with her Spirk art and I agreed. Fortunately she was okay with just a short piece because I just don’t have time for long requests right now.

I finished the next chapter of All I Ever Wanted and I will post that tomorrow to give anyone who wants to read Always Shall Be a chance to focus on that. I’ll probably add the other Valentine story I did to my one-shot collection either tonight or tomorrow as well. The one with the Vulcan card. I swear I can’t even remember what I called it anymore. Ugh, Anyway, I posted it here last Friday!

Long time followers know that me and M aren’t huge huge on V Day. I got him a small present (candy) and he’s making me dinner. But he’s not making it until Friday because we have our WW meeting tomorrow. I requested chicken and mushroom pie (it’s an English thing made with puff pastry) and mashed potatoes. He is also going to make me Pot Au Creme (some fancy creamy custardy lovebird dessert, ha)

I got my one-shot done for Friday and it’s super dupery cute if I do say so myself. Hope you guys will like it.

I may get some garage cleaning done this weekend. We shall see. It’s supposed to rain through Friday and again possibly Sunday, so it’s a small window of opportunity there. We’ve had a rainy season so far. And COLD for us. We’ve had more fires in our fireplace (M’s mistake on NY’s notwithstanding) this year than we’ve had in the last ten, I swear. Tonight I am off to Target and will likely buy a couple more logs.

And that is definitely it for now (well until Friday obviously)

It was 28 degrees at my house this morning. That’s way too cold for me. It’s warmed up to 34 at work. Brrr. No clue who this kid is in this picture, it just seemed cold! ha

At least the rain seems to have stopped for now. It rained so much my wood garage door was finding itself too heavy to operate as it was too bogged down by water.

No idea what I will update next, so we will see. But I have updated When I Loved You and Didn’t We Have it All, which is what I said I would do. Anything else is extra!

Rambles February 04, 2019

As you now know, I started Kirk’s Children, and updated (which caused me to lose a bookmark, go figure) When I Loved You.

Today at lunch I wrote a Flash for this Friday, giving myself another week on Revealing. This one is Valentine’s Day themed. I hope you will like it.

Up next for updating will be Didn’t We Almost Have it All, but for today, I am done. I need to do some actual work and mental healthing (yeah that’s not a real word).

I don’t think we are going to the movies this week, but there’s plenty of things I need to get caught up on watching, so I am sure that’s how I will spend the time for my usual Tuesday night viewing.

Friday we are meeting friends after work for happy hour. I will try to contain my enthusiasm for this endeavor. Otherwise, just a normal week.

Wow did I update a lot this week or what!

I updated My Devotion, The Mysterious One, The Sight, Nine Lives, and finished Hello Darkness, My Old Friend. Also a flash fic.

Coming up this week will be another chapter of The Experiment, When I Loved You, Didn’t We Almost Have It All and another Flash. Hopefully it will be the last part of Revealing but if not I’ll get something up.

This past Saturday was my second great niece’s first birthday party. We had to build an ark to get there but we made it. I was lucky that they changed the location to a closer place. An Italian restaurant in Los Feliz (fun fact, Chris P lives there, no not at the restaurant, and no I didn’t see him).

Another fun-filled work week is ahead of me (and some more rain too), but at least I have a three day weekend next week as I took the 11th off just for the hell of it. We also booked M’s trip to Idaho to see his aunt who’s husband passed away just a few days before Christmas. He’ll be going the first week of April (her birthday is that week too).

I saw Phil did NOT see his shadow so Spring is coming. Yay. LOL. He’s a cutie. Kris, you should get one of HIM. HA HA

So I saw Bohemian Rhapsody last night and liked it. I do love Queen. I don’t think the actor really looked like Freddy Mercury but he did a decent acting job.

In other news, I am in trouble. I don’t know if I will make the deadline for the conclusion of Revealing for Friday. It’s going rougher than I anticipated. I promise to post it as soon as it IS done, should I miss my usual Friday morning post, but there you have it.

In other news, I have plans for the next Friday post if I can get this one done, as someone gave me an idea for one that I’d said I would get to.

Also, I may have imagined this but I think there was a one shot I did for a Spirk couple around Christmas that I said I would revisit and I don’t think I have, but I could be remembering wrong. I’m too lazy to go back and look at the moment.

Hope those of you in the parts of the country with freezing cold are surviving. Yesterday where M’s sister lives it was 32 below. Yes, you read that right. I just looked now and it’s 29 below. That’s just nuts.

Ramblings for 01/28/2019

Today I plan on working on the final part of Revealing so I have plenty of time to have it done for Friday. I’ll work on it until it is done.

After that, I should be working on Hello Darkness and Nine Lives. I’ll be honest, I want to delete Hello Darkness and forget finishing it. I am struggling against doing it, but yeah. Not really sure what and why I am writing it or doing with it and it has gone in a direction I didn’t really want to take it. So…meh. Anyway I will update what I can for sure.

Anyway, this week…is another full week at work. It’s supposed to be warmish too. Sorry all your snowy, cold people. Tuesday I am going to see Bohemian Rhapsody because I have been putting it off for weeks, ha ha, and I finally agreed to go because M wants to see it. Friday we are going out with the cousin for Mexican food, and Saturday the 2nd is my great niece’s (Paige) first birthday party. Lots of plans, lots.

So, yeah. Hopefully I can find some normalcy there. You know I don’t do well without some sense of normalcy.

So anyway, today’s picture is from an awards show on Sunday. At least I don’t have to go to those! HA

Rambling of the Week, January 21, 2019

Pausing in my holiday off to write this. Afterwards, I think I’m going to do a bit of cleaning in my bedroom.

So far each day since I put my FIT-BIT on I have reached my goal of 10,000 steps. Pretty cool.

Tried to see the Super Blood Wolf Moon last night but it was too cloudy so we saw nothing, Ah well. I’ve seen pictures today.

Got an update for The Experiment and Didn’t We Almost Have it All up. Have not written the next part of the Flash yet but I still have a few days.

I’d like to get up the next chapter of The Ties That Bind this week too.

Also, for The Experiment, I’d like to ask for opinions. Are you all enjoying it for me to keep chapters going for a little while or is it time to end it? I admit I am enjoying this particular version but if others think it has run its course, I will find a way to wrap it up.

We are going to try to see The Mule again Tuesday. We couldn’t get in last week, so tomorrow we will try again, sigh. That’s about it for now. Thanks for listening.

Ramblings of the Week, January 14, 2019

Oops! I meant to publish this Monday! HA. Oh well

Here we are at the beginning of another week. A full work week, though this coming weekend is a three day one for both of us. Teachers in LA start their strike, too. And it’s supposed to be rainy for the next several days.

I intend to get chapters up for The Experiment. I also intend to, cross your fingers, get the next chapter up for The Mysterious One. I need to get something written for Friday too.

I need to get moving more this year, so we went for a walk Sunday afternoon. It was all right. Because of the rain, that might be it for the week, we will see.

I am getting stuck seeing The Mule on Tuesday (Clint Eastwood). I have no desire whatsoever to see it, but M and his cousin want to see it so I agreed. I will advise how it was.

Okay, so I have officially posted my T’hy’la Bang story, Wonderful Life, on AO3. I think most of you have seen it, but if you haven’t, take a look. I am pretty proud of that story.

This week I hope to get more written on The Experiment in the hopes of concluding it in the not too distant future. I also need something for my Flash Friday. I wanted to have the next part for my guys from the Christmas Flash I wrote a couple of weeks ago but I am stalled on that and them, so I might have to just whip something up fast so I have a Flash for this Friday.

I should be seeing Aquaman tomorrow if all goes according to plan.

Otherwise, this is a full work week for the first time in a while so that is going to suck. We do get MLK off on the 21st but that’s two weeks away. Of course after that we have no holidays until Memorial Day. It is a long stretch. I’ll be dipping in to vacation days for sure.

This time last year I was looking forward to the cruise. I have no such plans this year as I need to pay off some stuff. We shall see.

We had some rainy weather over the weekend, but all the undecorating is officially done and life is, such as it is, back to normal. May you have your version of normalcy.
