Windy Ribbons: April 2011

http://bettychenderson.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

Monday, April 25, 2011. HOMEMAKER OF THE YEAR. My family will tell you (in unison and at the top of their lungs) that I am not a domestic person. I despise housework.I am not married to a house, thank you very much; I do not enjoy cooking; floors do not look dirty to me unless there is actually mud on them and dishes piled to the rafters look sort of artistic if they are piled neatly on all available counters. Good at was reading, writing and painting. In short, I'm a lazy cuss. My family heads toward ho...

Windy Ribbons: November 2010

http://bettychenderson.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html

Saturday, November 27, 2010. Or is it Just Me? Thanksgiving is over. Missouri Folklore Society conference is finished. The drawer where the mouse was trying to build a nest is emptied and filled with metal pan lids (try chewing those up, little feller . . . gotcha! Two big important events coming up: Christmas and the surprise in February (NO, I'm still not ready to tell. But I will later.). Preparations are underway. Not enough preparations, but at least I've started. Hey! I had written the whole ms in ...

Windy Ribbons: June 2011

http://bettychenderson.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Tuesday, June 7, 2011. Getting Back Up On That Horse. How many of you have trouble starting all over again after falling down on some responsibility? I sure do. Case in point . . . this blog. Now, I really enjoy writing it. Honestly I do. But for some reason, when I have something that gets in my way and causes me to lose the necessary momentum I just seem to fall to pieces. Should I sprain my ankle, heaven forbid, I will be in bed for a week and someone has to carry me to the bathroom. His doctor tells ...

Windy Ribbons: July 2011

http://bettychenderson.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html

Friday, July 15, 2011. Mea Culpa. My apologies. This has been an unusual summer to say the least. However, I'm not going into detail because I would bore the reader to tears. I will just try and get into the swing of things once again. I've ordered additional copies of the From Trash to Treasure: the Evolution of an Ozarks Junkyard. I've actually sold out most of the copies I had! I'm so pleased. And my editior tells me that I'm getting a royalty check. Wow! I've made the big time! I grew up reading ever...

Windy Ribbons: August 2011

http://bettychenderson.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html

Wednesday, August 31, 2011. There But For the Grace of God. In the midst of all my grumping and groaning and feeling sorry for myself concerning this current medical crisis, I try and remember there are others who are lots and lots worse off than we are. We have all sorts of resources to deal with medical problems and besides, we don't even know for sure what we're looking at yet, so why should I fuss? So I rushed in and downloaded the book onto my I-Pad so he could get his evening assignment done. He wa...

Windy Ribbons: Another Fine Mess

http://bettychenderson.blogspot.com/2011/08/hey-everyone.html

Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Hey, everyone. Nice and cool today. After the heat of the summer I'm really enjoying this. Wish I had time to be out in it though. Just a short update to keep everyone in the loop. My better half, as everyone knows, has had a rough time of it lately with this bout with the shingles. Well, wouldn't you know? We go to the doctor last week, complaining that there is something else. Going on lately and sure enough . . . there is! Damn, getting old is fun, ain't it? I grew up reading...

It Had to be Said: Watching Train Wrecks 'Till 1 AM

http://dawnallcot.blogspot.com/2008/01/watching-train-wrecks-till-1-am.html

It Had to be Said. Friday, January 4, 2008. Watching Train Wrecks 'Till 1 AM. Catching up on my blog reading, lurking on some tarot forums and otherwise drifting across the Internet last night, I found myself once again at AbsoluteWrite. An interesting thread discusses where people can be taught how to write or if it is, essentially, an innate talent that can be honed. A similar thread had popped up earlier on the forum, and some kind poster decided to provide the link. I like watching train wrecks?
