suckerpunch

i got a wild hare (sic) and submitted a story to ISU’s literary journal black rock and sage (BR&S) last month. i’ve been working on the piece for over a year as a personal history/journaling kind of activity, but never intended to do anything with it. nevermind that for the last two years i consciouslyContinue reading “suckerpunch”

hot girl

everyone that knows me knows that i am a hot girl. i finally found the exact words for it, though. it’s not hot, it’s extreme heat intolerance. and is is not just uncomfortable. it’s miserable. i noticed it when i was 19 years old, and have been affected by it off and on since then.Continue reading “hot girl”

spring-a-licious

i hope that spring makes us all feel a lot better. winter was kind of hard on this girl, what with being sick and all. but i am feeling better, there’s a ‘spring’ in my step and i am optimistic about the coming months (even while i dread the heat of summer proper). this isContinue reading “spring-a-licious”

two birds with one stone

i dragged my tired ass to the river after christmas and marked off my december and january trip in one fell swoop. i had been sick since mid-november with a sinus infection, and thought i was feeling much better, but….. getting to the cabin took much of my remaining energy and i slept almost theContinue reading “two birds with one stone”

half-way

i’m almost half-way through my 50th year! since this was my attempt at documenting my year and showing you what my 50 looks like, it’s probably time for some reflection. i’ve been to the river every month this calendar year except for february. but, since this is my plan and i make the rules, iContinue reading “half-way”

counting blessings

i went to the river last weekend. me and the girls. lucy and bertie were absolutely no help around the property, but they did gift me with comic relief and dead animal parts. there were a few glorious trees still sporting their fall colors, but by and large the trees were bare. one of themContinue reading “counting blessings”

october

what happened to september? i think i was there. oh yeah, i remember….. after years and years of ‘thinking about it’, i went to explore the mackay mine hill ghost town tour. after discovering all the fixer uppers in the area- i sarcastically turned the adventure into a backwards day of househunting: open floor plan,Continue reading “october”

fall, y’all

i made it to the East Fork in may, june, july, august and september to continue my trend of once a month. i have a planned trip in october and i couldn’t be more excited about it if i tried. two of my favorite old, old friends are joining me. the leaves are already startingContinue reading “fall, y’all”
