Friday Fragments

It’s done!

I finally did it! I finished my new ebook, Journal Writing 101.  I had missed a couple of deadlines I set, but I finally just hunkered down and did it.

It is the same stuff I do in my “live” classes, minus the class interaction.  I basically had to take my class syllabus and change it into an ebook.

The journal writing exercises are great tools to use to help you make decisions, solve problems, heal relationships and even discover the writer within (great for bloggers!)

A quick stop home

We’ve been at camp since before July 4th.  I stop home on my way to church (or afterward) and if we’re out at a doctors appointment.

We finally went home to stay a few days on Monday.  My car needed to be inspected, and someone needed to light a fire under the boy’s butts.

I’m afraid the “bachelor” lifestyle has affected their energy.  The garbage hadn’t been taken to the dump, and the dishes hadn’t been done in several days.  Momma was in the house to zap some energy back into the boys!

Now we’re back at camp (yay!)

We have friends renting a camper this weekend from the campground owners.  It should be a fun time.

The Internet seems to be unbearable slow here at camp today, so I’m going to go get a few things done.

Hopefully it will speed up later so I can go blog hopping and say hi to you’all!

Until later!

There are a couple of questions they want you to answer:

1. When did you start blogging? I started blogging in October 2007 with my first blog: Working in jammies and loving it
2. Why did you start blogging? I love to write! My first attempt didn’t last too long..but. Finally, I started blogging more, learned a lot and started helping others. That fueled my “newest” biz, Blogging Biz Mom
3. What is one thing you are going to do this week that is WAY cooler than going to BlogHer? Getting my new trailer ready to go camping!
4. Share a post that you think says a lot about you or is your favorite. (share the link in YOUR post so we all can see) : LOL- I ran into this one the other day- it is sooo me and I laughed reading it!

Negligee or Pj’s? That is the question!

So go share……..can’t wait to read everyone’s answers!

Also, don’t forget Ann’s Virtual Girls Night Out- it has moved from Friday to Saturday:

Yesterday I woke up- did my emails and read a few blogs. Then, I threw work to the wind (sort of) and took a break.

My friend “L” is a “new” New Yorker. She has  lived in Texas, California and Arizona for the majority of her life. Her husband is from here. They came out here a year or so ago. Her husband worked with Ron, which is how we became friends.

Anyhoo, she hasn’t been to a lot of the “hot spots” In Central New York,  so I took her to one of the parks which is on a lake.

They have miles of walking trails that run along the lake, you can rent bikes, kayaks and rowboats. There is also a tram that stops at several points along the way. There are playgrounds scattered along the way and a food stand at one of the stops.There are also grills and picnic tables everywhere.

They also have a great dog park, but I left puppy home. No dogs allowed on the trams………….and I wanted my friend to experience that. Sorry Cosmo (the puppy!)

I swear, we had the most beautiful day you could get! It was in the mid 80′s but felt cooler because it was slightly overcast and breezy. It’s always a little cooler by the lake anyway.

We started out walking, just talking and taking in the sights. We walked about 2 miles – until we got to the food stand.

We had a hot dog, hung out a while, then took the tram from that point to the end of the route, and back again to where the tram starts.

Then we left. We were there several hours and we were both beat! We went back to her place and hung another hour or so, then I left.

I rushed around the grocery store looking for something easy to make indoors as it looked like rain was on the horizon.

I get home around 5:30- no one’s here! Ron is on a road call and the boy’s were still at work picking blueberries.

The boys got home around 6:30 and had already bought something to eat on the way home. Ron showed up around 8 p.m. and announced he had grabbed a couple of slices of pizza when he was out.

Cool!

I fended for myself and had my favorite zucchini dish. I’ll put the recipe up tomorrow…

Now I must go to the library and get a dream book for my Journal Writing class tonight. We are analyzing dreams- always a lot of fun!

BTW- On my other blog, I posted about a great exercise to do if you are a business owner. Check it out HERE.
