Winter’s still with us. Cold today, but not too cold. No idea what the rest of the week will bring, but I strongly suspect it won’t be a day on the water, fishing.
Woke early again after a good night’s sleep, and put in a strong morning at the keyboard. The new short I’m working on seems to be finding its way to completion. The long joint I’m dealing with is coming okay as well, though much more slowly.
De-Christmased the living room and hauled the tree into the side yard. Sad to see it go, particularly since I slept through the holidays and didn’t get to enjoy it as much as I’d have liked.
Had a nice long chat with my uncle this afternoon. Need to see if I can’t drive up and take him to lunch this month. Trying not to think about it too hard, but I worry it’s going to be a year of loss. And lots of it. Meanwhile, I figure to make the most of what time there is and to enjoy it the best I can.
Got an acceptance this afternoon from the Ocotillo Review for “Born Blue.”
