Watering!

Hi!
Watering pine seedlings isn't my idea of fun, but it has to be done. Hey! That rhymes!


Watering pine trees isn't my idea of fun,
but that is one thing that has to be done.
Before the the new day has been dawn,
the water for trees must be gone.

Okay, I'm not a poet, but I wrote a horrible poem about watering seedlings. Which would be writing in the case of you didn't notice. What should I call my poem? I have no idea, but I need an idea because that is going to be an important thing in the course of the next week.

P.S. In case you didn't notice, I am very bad at coming up with names for stories, poems, and blog entries. And I just remembered about some trees that most everybody probably forgot!
Bye!

Well, isn't this fun!

I guess that won't be my new schedule. Tuesdays it still will be. Speaking of which, I didn't even post on Tuesday. I was working on a lead for my story for writers group. Stumped again. Oh well, I still have 6 days. Ha ha, very funny. At least it's better than typing out about 32 handwritten pages of story in less than 8 hours. Good thing I'm a fast typist. THIS story only has to be half a page or less. NOT 11 typed. That was a killer, and my hands hurt for three hours after that episode.
I recently was thinking about how, who, and when someone came up with the American English/British English language. I mean, who in the world thought up "eavesdropper"? Or "hot dog"! Hot dog sort of makes sense, because it does look sort of like those dachshunds.
Just now I made a batch of pickled eggs, and I still have two from LAST time I made them. Boy are those good!
WARNING! Don't ever swallow refrigerated vinegar after eating pickled eggs. *Gag*
I know pickled eggs and basketball have almost nothing to do with writing, but this blog is sort of more personal/writing.

No basketball tonight!

Battery covers. No basketball. I am going to TRY to post every day for a week. If  I don't make it, that obviously won't be my new schedule. If I do make it, that might be my new schedule. No progress on my writer's group story. I only have nine days, so I'd better work on it. I don't even have so much as an idea, though! I have an idea! After I get it done, I'll post it on here! That way, you can read it!

Hmm...

Hi!
I forgot to post last night... I guess I was so excited about my Aunt Mary & Uncle Jay coming up from Florida, I completely forgot. I was trying to write a story for my writer's group in two weeks, but I couldn't concentrate at all because I was so excited. Anyways, I am going to have to log off, because I need to do some things before it gets too late.

Oops!

Sorry I forgot to post last night. I was going to post in the evening, but for the summer, that won't work so well. I have basketball practices Monday nights till the end of August. After that, I don't know my schedule for basketball. (Well that's an uh-oh!) Maybe Tuesday will work...
Anyways, as I write this, I am listening to Pandora. LOVE IT! I mean, if you don't know what Pandora is, you'd better check it out. They have tons of music on their site. And it's free unless you don't want ads. Then you have to pay...
Hopefully basketball won't get in the way of writing. I went to the farmers' market today. We sell eggs and produce.
I'd like to hear what YOU think of my blog!

The beginning...

Well, I guess this is the post that I say why I started my new blog. From now on, I am going to try to post every Monday. I'll try that, and if I need to make changes to my schedule, I'll make changes to it. Really, I am starting this blog because I am a writer, a young one in fact, and I recently went to a writer's group and the guest speaker said, "You are going to need a online presence," or something like that. So that is now what I am doing. Pretty soon, I'll have to start on my story for my writer's group. Well, I have the whole month for that. But, I want to make it good, so I should start working on it as soon as I can, I guess. Talk to you Monday!
