Another Slow Down

| April 8, 2019

Spent another weekend under the weather, which means I’m behind on a whole lot of things. Regular posts will resume tomorrow. I think I’ve had my fair share of illness this year now!

Temporary Slow Down

| March 11, 2019

I’ve spent this past weekend sick with a cold, which means I’m a little behind on a few things, including blog posts with real substance. Check back tomorrow for your regularly scheduled posting to resume.

Merry Christmas, Friends!

| December 25, 2018

Merry Christmas! While we don’t celebrate Christmas in an entirely traditional way, we still have our own traditions. We drink hot cocoa and eat cookies on Christmas Eve while we read some books, and we see a movie on Christmas Day, possibly with Thai food (since I can’t eat most Chinese food). Regardless of how […]

Labor Day!

| September 3, 2018

It’s nice to have a long weekend, both in terms of relaxation and productivity. I’m spending the day working on a bunch of projects, but I’m sure I’ll get some vegging time in too. Hope everyone else is enjoying Labor Day, in whatever way you prefer!

Back from SpoCon!

I’m back from SpoCon, and I’ll talk more about my experiences there in the coming weeks.

Spokane is a cute little place, but it’s much too high desert […]

Quiet Monday

| April 2, 2018

I’m back from Norwescon, and I’m working on getting my head around all of the things I saw and did while I was there. There will be posts about that soon, but for today, I’m trying to have a bit of a quieter day, despite needing to catch up on a great many things!  

Off for an adventure!

| March 14, 2018

Taking Time to Relax

| January 15, 2018

Though the picture to the right isn’t my actual view today, I’m taking a bit of a break from my usual posting schedule after a weekend at Rustycon. I’ll be back to the grind tomorrow. But for today, I’m imagining being off on some tropical island and getting in some well-deserved relaxation!
