Yeah I’m pretty sure.
Can I fall back now or do I have to wait until 2am?

It’s the most wonderful time of the year.

Having a day... a very fragrant day.

First, a glass jar of chili oil was dropped and shattered across the kitchen floor. Second, a full bottle of caramel flavouring was dropped and splashed across the kitchen floor.
Our house smells like the holidays and travel.

Thirty paintings created by the bushy-haired, soft-spoken Bob Ross will soon be up for auction to defray the costs of programming for small and rural public television stations suffering under cuts in federal funding. https://to.pbs.org/4nEQMrw

All profits will help public TV stations with licensing fees for popular programs that include "The Best of Joy of Painting" and "America's Test Kitchen."

Well... it appears as though I have just finished my next book.
This one is quite a departure as it's sort of a horror / mythology novel. A bit different from my young reader fantasy books ;-).

Fingers crossed that I will get this thing available for the public this year. Whew!

I love car play 🎉❤️
I just installed it. I hear car play is vastly improved. Glass is mixed so far. Still exploring settings.
A heavily tattoo’d guy (with his wife) smiled at me today and said hi (at the county fair) and for a moment I forgot that this was in the south where that’s perfectly normal. 🥰
Apparently I always wear the same jacket when I get to meet @paulapoundstone.bsky.social
She is the one with the fashion sense in our relationship.

*hugs from afar Paula!*
