Coffee Conversations with a Purple Girl
This is not really how I intended to start my free writing for this year’s NaNoWriMo, but I guess it will do. I’m waiting for it to be time to put my cats in their new carrier so I can take them to the vet for their annual check-up and shots. So that’s fun. They […]
Everything is wet. That’s because it rained all day yesterday. The rain seems to be conspiring against us this week as every day my husband has thought about going out to do yard work it’s rained on him. He still managed to trim the bush by our mail box so it’s not whacking us in […]
Welcome back, once again, friends! It’s been a little over a week since we returned from our grand DC adventure and I’m just now starting to organize my pictures and think about putting them on the internet. It’s a slow process. I took a lot on my phone and a lot on my camera and […]
This is the thing about summer that I always forget. It rains, a lot. Thunderstorms run rampant around our county, unchecked, unchallenged, thundering at will… wait, that’s a movie, never mind. Anyway, we’ve had quite a few thunderstorms and I’m not sure if they are good or bad for my tomatoes. I have to worry […]

Today is my husband’s kind of weather. “It could be cooler,” he’d say, but it’s over cast and rainy and that’s how he likes it. We’re very pale people, we don’t do well with sun. I’m sitting in my big comfy chair, a cup of coffee next to me, as usual, and I have the […]
It’s one of those days folks, so if you want to skip this one, go ahead. I can’t promise there’ll be anything interesting here today. It’s one of those days where I get home with my coffee and my muffin, and I sit down to write and there is nothing in my head worth writing […]
I have just escaped a pouring rain. This morning I took my husband to work, but I was feeling too lazy to put on pants and pack up my computer and sit in a drafty Starbucks to write, having just been there yesterday. I did put real pants on, but as we hustled out the […]
My muffin is cold this morning. They didn’t offer to warm it up when I ordered it, just handed it to me. Not that I mind not having a warm muffing when it’s 50 degrees outside, but, you know, it might be nice to ask. My coffee doesn’t seem as hot as usual, which isn’t […]
