I mixed the meat loaf, put it in the oven, then you took it out and moved it to a different pan. I washed potatoes, turned to put them in the oven, and you scooped them up to wash and trim. My ire was #measurable so I left the room and took a deep breath. Too many cooks in the kitchen.

I'm still stunned by the realization that I'm writing a psychological horror novel. All the odd bits and pieces just slipped into place. But this truly is one of my great joys in writing. Since I don't outline, discovery of the story my characters are sharing is a wild ride sometimes. #wip #writing

My neighbor is flying his new drone over my property. Sounds like a giant wasp. The instinct to slap it is strong...but I won't. Those things are expensive.

#Writing went pretty well today...words on page at least. Resolved a point where I was stuck. Teenage girls are always good for a bit of storming off. Mine discovered a hole they didn't know existed...but they know they shouldn't mention it.

Today marks a year since I joined Bluesky! A big thank you to all who read my #poetry and engage with me. You often make my day ^^
#vss365 poem ⬇️
I'm oft spoiled for choices,
but always choose to act.
No matter the #options
I do not opt out,
lest the choice
is taken away;
best to always
have a say.

And no, I can not just run to the store for a,bagel.
The store is 36 mins away.
So I don't get a bagel 🤷

Still funny to me...
As I've said before, I named my characters in my book from people I interact with here. It's always a reality jolt when I'm writing a character and their namesake pops up in my notifications. 😂😂😂

How many hundred of people write for the #vss365 prompt daily? And my feeds only show the same 4 or 5 to me... sheesh.
Thanks Bluesky...but more writers and artists, less politics would be my preference.

Oh
We're still
Having a row
And you can't
Leave the house
What #options
Do you have
Let's see
1. Admit you
You're wrong
And apologize
2. Show me how
I'm (not) wrong
And get me
To apologize
Or 3. call a truce
By admitting
You might be wrong
But need
More time
To suck it up
And apologize

My son referenced something about dark chocolate and Stephen King tonight. I was only half listening and asked him to repeat. He said it was just something that popped in his head. No big deal.
I told him we lived in Maine. Stephen King has influence over us all...

As if this day needed anymore stress...
A deer smashed my headlight on the way home. Light still works if I need to see in the 2nd floor of someone's home or track a satellite, but not to see the road. Only had to drive 45 miles that way.
The deer jumped up and ran off. No blood even.

Sitting in a car waiting for someone is ugh.
Sitting in someone else's car waiting for them...is worse.
I had to drive. They insisted we go thru the city in traffic at 25 mph instead of the bypass. Then I get to grocery shop for them in a store I've never been to. I'm NOT having fun.

Agnes insisted reality was overrated because the alternate timelines she had travelled to had better outfits and fewer plagues. Men were a not a factor in her ratings. They were always the same.
