Riding my bicycle today, I reached a point at which my heart was hammering and I felt a little nauseous. I told Livia that I had hit my limit. Livia tried to encourage me. She said, “You should push past … Continue reading →

Day 149: Odds and Ends

Posted on 08/09/2020 by chick

I am reading The Last Magician by Lisa Maxwell. I’m about a fifth of the way through, and so far it’s good, but it’s not suiting my mood. Consequently I’m not sure what to do with it. If I stop … Continue reading →

Day 116: This Post’s For You

Posted on 07/07/2020 by chick

I’m supposed to write a post for every day, but sometimes I get lazy and fall behind, and sometimes I might even get a little cranky and question the whole point of it. So I remind myself that the point … Continue reading →
