Blogs!

Sorry I haven't been around for a couple days. I created a blog for my little one and I'm having difficulties with it. I created a home page, a stories page (Yes, she is a writer, too. *g*), and a pottery page (cause first and foremost, according to her, she's an artist).

However, I can't get the appropriate pieces on the appropriate pages. Been pulling my hair out, but such is life.

I'm going to go to my resource people and see if they can help. I also wrote my son and asked for his help. He's got a kick a** blog. He's an extreme photographer and an extreme skier. His blog makes my heart jump into my throat for the chances he takes -- but all in all, I know he's still alive *g* if it's on his blog!

I haven't touched Blue nor Other in days. It's not that I have writer's block - at least not what I understand to be writer's block -- but I just don't have the energy.

It's been cold - bitter cold for days and snowing and such. I think I need to be in a place like Florida or something. I work better with sunshine and lollipops and rainbows. Perhaps I should put pictures of those kinds of things on my walls by my computer.

Speaking of putting things on my computer. I was going to tell you about something I am going to do today. I am putting up two sticky notes. One, on the left side of the computer, will have the five questions. The five questions. Who, What, When, Where, Why and How. The second sticky note on the right side will have the five senses. Taste, touch, smell, hear, see. 

As I'm writing, but mostly as I'm editing, I'm going to keep looking at those ten items and incorporating them into the books. Adding another layer to the tapestry, so to speak. I'm pretty sure it will help and help me get over some of this stuck-in-mud feelings that I'm slogging through at the moment.

Life is a slog-fest.
