I got so burned out on the computer that I just left the darn thing off for weeks that turned into months.<br /> I just don't have fascinating things to write about. But I am going to keep blogging. I know that it is good therapy for me.<br /> Have a fantastic day!

Just finished 'Madame Secretary', very topical and well written/acted. The episode on migrants at the border had me in tears, if only we had a decent POTUS and a thoughtful, intelligent staff surrounding him/her/they...<br /><br />BTW, my daughter in SF and I watched Outlander together on our phones. We synched up the show and watched from our respective living rooms. Fleabag also excellent.beth coyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04671290135595711572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-47847196209919538982019-07-08T17:04:38.677-04:002019-07-08T17:04:38.677-04:00I read, and read some more!

I watched Outlander a bit, and was pleasantly surprised by what a strong character Claire is (I thought she was going to be some ridiculous damsel in distress). But there is a scene that I just couldn't get over; one line, really, that Jamie says to her, that is so ridiculously stupid I had to stop watching it...and you'll know it when you hear it.Elle Clancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11563633298659967269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-63915400845463377342019-07-08T16:34:47.813-04:002019-07-08T16:34:47.813-04:00I listened to all of the Outlander books on audio ...I listened to all of the Outlander books on audio versions. They did keep my attention although part of me was appalled that I was spending so much time on such poorly written books. The stories are good, though. <br />I'm sure that YOUR writing will get you this project. You did not pull this out of a hat. You put all of your heart and soul and skills and talent into it, I have no doubt. And experience. I think when we speak of self-care we have to acknowledge our own accomplishments and here I am to remind you- you have many!

I know it's not even close to representing the same amount of work as your writing does, but still I have a tiny glimpse of how you must feel. I never know what I'll write, or how I'll get there, but sitting down to do it makes it happen.<br /><br />You must be feeling a lifting of pressure, temporarily anyway.<br /><br />I read to cope with the crazy in the world. Novels. Works every time.jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-64610949204114742382019-07-08T12:05:38.924-04:002019-07-08T12:05:38.924-04:00Congratulations on your proposal!

I have a hard time with violence, so it may not work. I like stories of love, though.

I absolutely loved Fleabag -- both seasons, and I binged Schtisel as well a few months ago. I finished Killing Eve, first season, but it's so brutal and not really my cup of tea. I'm a tad obsessed with Phoebe Waller Bridge, though, and wanted to watch what she created.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313726816776097840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-25289822863665446112019-07-07T22:58:00.912-04:002019-07-07T22:58:00.912-04:00"It's something of a paradox, but I'm..."It's something of a paradox, but I'm learning to disengage the gears of vigilance in order to keep the travesties in view. Most of us have no idea what else to do. We're looking for the moment in which we can truly make a difference.

That feels like a great luxury.<br /><br />Congratulations on completing the proposal! I look forward to reading your book.amhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09212213177713917828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-6228334522390216402019-07-07T22:30:06.093-04:002019-07-07T22:30:06.093-04:00My guilty pleasure is that I already binge watch N...My guilty pleasure is that I already binge watch Netflix. I'm into The Czar right now, love the atmosphere more than the movie. I think it's actually called a docudrama...? For some reason I thought Outlanders was a sci fi. Go figure. But your description is so lovely, I'm putting on my list for next.<br />"It's always impossible until it's done." Love that.<br />You'll get it, just you wait and see.

The husband is a nurse and the wife is chatty. It was nice to just chat while we gardened.<br /><br />I read the Outlander series. That woman can write sex scenes!
