  1. Very nearly done with my orthodontia. They'll take the attachments off my teeth next week and I'll get my retainers the week after that. Yes, it's like being a pre-teen again!

New Year's Eve/Day Edition


  1. A nice, quiet New Year's Eve.
  2. My son did well in his first fencing tournament.
  3. Got some writing done.

. . . It has been a relatively quiet couple of days. I've been feeling a little sad, though I'm not sure why. I continue rewrites on my current novel and think I may nearly be done. I'll be happy again once I'm able to send it to advance readers/reviewers.

I wish you all Many Good Things for 2017.
