Yes, folks! It’s the last day of school here in Greenville County! I am soooo excited! It has been an odd day, to say the least, but not having to get up in the morning to tote the kids around will be so sweet! (At least until next week when Fine Arts camp begins…) Boy #2’s school had their award ceremony last Thursday. He brought home two awards: All A honor roll, and excellence in computer science. But he’d had…
Chapter 28 of The White Winds is up, and I’ve managed to outline a bit of the next few chapters. We’ll see how it goes. I should be getting to 23K hits on this story with this chapter. It still amazes me how different the two worlds are; the movie verse brings in a lot of people from other fandoms. Two more days of school! Yay!
Well, there’s another chapter of Overtures posted. It’s my longest one yet; over 8600 words. Very difficult to write and to get right. But I think I did. Now back to The White Winds. I have probaby half of the next chapter of that written. I just have to finish it. I’ve posted Serendipity at FicWad, and Masquerade now has just over 8000 hits. The White Winds is nearing 23,000, which astonishes me. There’s plenty of activity at IR:TNP, but…
***You Are Scooter*** Brainy and knowledgeable, you are the perfect sidekick. You’re always willing to lend a helping hand. In any big event or party, you’re the one who keeps things going. “15 seconds to showtime!” The Muppet Personality Test http://www.blogthings.com/themuppetpersonalitytest/ Not exactly what I would have thought.
Got the lunaescence newsletter for May today, and lo, and behold! I’m the author spotlight for the month! This is what they had to say! Author Spotlight: Tikatu. A mother of three juggling the demands of family and life, Tikatu is an accomplished fan fiction author. She primarily writes fanfiction for Thunderbirds, though she has other excellent works too. Her stories are definately worth a read! Isn’t that cool! I’ve only been on the site for two months and it…
Had the NCV and the EMG tests today. The NCV was more painful than I remembered, but the doctor only did the EMG on my left arm, so it wasn’t as bad(though he did manage to raise a goose egg high on my shoulder where he poked the needle in). He’s prescribed a muscle relaxant, and told me it would make me drowsy. Hey, everything I take makes me drowsy! The tests didn’t seem to tell him much more than the…
Yes, it was birthday celebrations today for my Girl and me! The birthdays were during the week, but as is our family tradition, we got together on Sunday to actually celebrate. We had the party here because my Michigan BIL has been here this weekend. He’s moving on tomorrow, sadly, on the day when Hubby might be off (I’ve forgotten to ask – I’ll do that when the family gets back from their shopping run). My bro and SIL and…
Fanfic.net wasn’t allowing uploads for certain people (or perhaps certain categories – I’m not sure which) until this evening. So it took a while for me to get my latest chapter of Overtures up on the site. But now it’s there and I can move on to something else. I posted my original story "The Dare" at both FicWad and Lunaescence. It had been in the 1000 Word Challenge battle forum at Lunaescence (and in my livejournal), but it…
Started getting that knot of pain (the neurologist called it some kind of neuralgia) at the back of my head again, just like last Wednesday. I’ve taken some aspirin (just like before) and followed it up with a coffee chaser (my second pot for the day). I’ve tried putting cold back there to ease the pain, but now I’m thinking that warmth might be better. I was sorely tempted to lay my half-filled coffee cup along the spot where the pain…
crossposted from my LiveJournal Just got back from seeing the neurologist. He said that there were “spots” on my brain, but that those were things that he would expect to see with the diabetes and neuropathy and all. No sign of stroke. I am very grateful for that. He went through my rather extensive file, looking for the other MRI, which I finally remembered as being one of my back and not of my head. For the first time, I…
