The crazy rabbit trails of a writer’s mind. Best shown on a Monday. All this took place in less than sixty seconds:

– I wonder how many Dr. Peppers I could drink in one day if I was REALLY stressed…
– In doing research for current novel, I talk to the Rangers a lot. Discovered there are three people on (climbing) Denali right now. In the dead of winter, in the dark. My thoughts? They’re missing a few of their marbles…
– The Rangers are very cool. I like them a lot.
– I wonder if they think I’m crazy.
– I miss Alaska.
– I miss heated garages.
– It would be nice to have a garage that “Little Gracie” (my Expedition) could actually fit in.
– I love it when my husband grills.
– I love it when my husband grants me an entire writing day by doing all the laundry!
– I love teaching my kids. I love homeschooling.
– I’m an author and English was not my favorite subject in school.
– The English language sometimes, (okay – well, LOTS of times), drives me nuts.
– My suggestion to fix it? Make a rule and stick to it.
– I like consistency. A lot.
– Making lists make me happy.
– Checking things off the lists makes me even more happy.
– My kids are the coolest kids ever.
– I spend a lot of times at swimming pools.
– My kids swim miles every day.
– I wonder if my computer can handle all that chlorine day after day.
– I used to need quiet to write.
– now I can write while coaches are yelling, “Go!” “Faster!” “Shoot!” “Up!” “Kick” “Take Your Mark”
– I love Christmas.
– We had sixteen Christmas trees in our house this past year.
– Sometimes, I go overboard.
– I love the smell of coffee.
– My family is the coolest.
– I have a guardian angel bear on my desk to protect my characters.
– Just thought of a great math project for the kids. And it’s really hard. Mwa-ha-ha-ha (evil laugh)
– Need. More. Dr. Pepper…

Until next time…
