I've been having a lot of crazy dreams lately. For example, I dreamed that I had to drive across part of the country to get to Boats and Bluegrass (the music festival we go to each year in Winona) and then when we got there, there wasn't room for the camper (we don't have a … Continue reading August 18: dreams

August 13: Last-minute voter
I have almost made up my mind about who I will vote for tomorrow in the Dem primary. I still have to do a little research on the judges and non-partisan races, but these are likely my final choices. I'll vote for Amy Klobuchar, but it won't really matter because she'll be endorsed easily, I … Continue reading August 13: Last-minute voter
August 10: tired!
I have a lot I'd like to write about. It's the last day of the lake vacation, it's our 16th wedding anniversary, and I'm still concerned about the primary election. However, it's late and it has been a long week and a long day. Today I painted more faces. The half-face monster and minion mouth … Continue reading August 10: tired!
August 8: Wikipedia hole
I fell down the Wikipedia hole tonight. I'm note really sure how I even got started, but I think when we were sitting by the fire, we got to talking about asteroids and meteors and meteorites because of the Perseid meteor shower. That led to impact events, which led to extinction events, which led to … Continue reading August 8: Wikipedia hole
August 6: I have the boat floats
I have only been out in the water or on the boat a bit - a few hours a day, maybe - and it's only been two days but I'm already having the boat float dizziness. This is when I get off the boat and still feel the waves. Usually they aren't too bad but … Continue reading August 6: I have the boat floats
August 4: almost forgot
I almost forgot to write! I was snuggling down and sort of falling asleep and I remembered. So here I am. Half awake, in a super-hard bed in a hot cabin room, listening to Dak snore, doing my writing out of a sense of duty to myself. Annika almost exploded with excitement when we were … Continue reading August 4: almost forgot
August 1: it’s gonna be a LONG night.
I am such a scatterbrained airhead today. I missed my turn for the doctor this morning and sort of got lost (I blame construction). I almost put the cereal away in the fridge. I started getting a sore throat and took a nap, which helped me pull it together for the afternoon/evening, but then I … Continue reading August 1: it’s gonna be a LONG night.
July 19: I love…
Looked at the internet for inspiration for today's blog post and found something that might bring up my mood: stuff I love! The suggestion said to come up with 100 things, but I'm just going to list as many as I feel like. Sleeping in late Not having anything I have to do Sitting on … Continue reading July 19: I love…
July 17: placeholder? Not totally.
I got distracted again tonight and read until now, so while I'm doing my writing, it's definitely not something I am thinking too hard about this because I'm completely tired. Exhausted. Like to the point of illness. I wish I could understand why I do this. It's like I get hooked and I can't tear … Continue reading July 17: placeholder? Not totally.
July 15: Girl’s Day
I spent all day with Annika and my niece Ella. The boys are out at camp, so we had a girl day. Unfortunately, it was so hot we almost melted. We went to the Ramsey County Fair and did the rides, then ate ice because we overheated, then went and saw that Annika won first … Continue reading July 15: Girl’s Day
