Earlier today I had the annual evaluation meeting with the chief nurse who is technically my boss. It went fine. Until the end when he asked if did any exercised. I told him I did yoga at home. He told me I should walk more. I wasn’t annoyed when I left the meeting, but […]
In case you don’t know, I can be a bit absentminded. I see things I want to go at, and then forget about it. ( I am tiny bit better when it comes to seeing stuff others might like.) That is what happened this spring. I remembered in May that Fantastika was this weekend. And […]
In between edits, I am planning for travels, of the vacation with family kind. In March I am going to Madrid to celebrate Mum’s 70th birthday. ( She is getting old. *clings to her mother*) Which will be fun. BUT! The big, really exciting part is that I am definitely going to New York […]

I hadn’t planned on writing anything, but then yesterday Bethany House posted a non apology. And well, I changed my mind. I don’t speak about my family history online, but this time I will. […]
It is my birthday soon. And I am being asked by my family what gifts I want to have. And I don’t know. Mostly because what I want are things that my family cannot give to me. I want my contract to be renewed, my books to sell, the draft to be done, the new […]
This is the brownie recipe I use, it is based on this recipe by Gina Homolka, except with some tweaks. I didn’t like the taste the water gave it, so I switched it out. I do think that if you replace the butter w oil, in the original recipe, you can use it for brownies in […]
