June 2026

Well, Summer is here. Took the skirting off my trailer, well most of it anyway. Let the wind whip under and cool the cats that are now lounging under there. Been running the A/C for a while now since it gets over 80 and the sun hits my trailer all day. During the winter that’s nice as I don’t have to run the furnace as much but during the summer it’s bad.

The male ferals have stopped chasing the females as much since it’s hotter now and the females have been clawing them up. Some of the kittens are now eating cat food along side Mama. A few haven’t shown up. The mamas are weaning their babies off milk and leaving the kittens at the feeding boards for a while before leading them off again. Most of the kittens still run for cover when I approach but they don’t go far. Big eyes watch me.

Still working on my WIP. Gotta little work done on it but it’s slow going right now. I keep getting distracted by other things. Other plot bunnies hop in for a bit before novella 3’s bunny kicks them away. Soo many ideas in my head. I need to be immortal to get everything written and to read all the books on my TBR list. That is if my muse lets me work. Fickleness is a state of being for her.

My new CD player is nice. Plays better than the cheap one for sure. I don’t have many CDs as I don’t like every song on a lot of the CDs groups put out. Most of them are from singer/groups from the early to mid 80’s. I was a teenager then. Lots of good rock n roll and country. Though I wasn’t in to a lot of the ‘popular’ ones like KISS. Paula Abdul and Bon Jovi were my listening pleasures, along with Alabama. I wasn’t tied to just one type or group. The song itself was what grabbed me.

Same with books. The story had to grab me or I’d put the book back. The cover didn’t matter to me as much as the back cover with the story laid out. Which is why I hate some of the new books with reviews on the back instead of the storyline. Just because Jack liked it don’t mean I will and if I don’t know what the story’s about I ain’t gonna get the book anyway.

Time to feed the cats and make sure the water pans are full. Catch you on the flip side. Stay tuned for the next installment.

November 2025

A bit behind on things. Seasonal Disorder is kicking my butt. It gets dark too early for my rhythms.

I haven’t winterized my trailer completely yet. I just don’t have the gumption. And to me it’s not that cold right now. It’s dipped into the 30’s but with just a long-sleeved shirt I feel fine. Spring and Fall are my seasons. Well, except for the sinus problems they bring. I hate that.

My muse has not been very busy. I’ve only written about 200 words in all of October. And I am now two books behind in my book club. No gumption at all.

Mama cat has only two kittens with her now. She’s moved to the wood pile by the old chicken house with them. An older kitten has moved into the chicken house itself. I think it is one of the summer bunch that had stopped showing up. It looks like one of them any way. The kitten’s a scaredy cat though. You even look at it the wrong way and it runs off a little ways. If it spends enough time around here it will calm down some. They all do once they realize we ain’t gonna hurt them.

Been watching a few YouTube videos. Well more than some. But I’m starting to get tired of them. Maybe I’ll be forced to go back to reading when I get bored of YouTube.

November is a between month for me. Halloween and Christmas. Thanksgiving doesn’t mean much when most of your family is gone and you don’t have a lot of friends. Christmas isn’t the same either. But Halloween and Christmas the whole world celebrates publicly and it’s nice to watch the children enjoy the holidays. Tis the season as they say.

Gotta go. Catch you on the flip side. Stay tuned for the next installment.
