To make up for some recent negative posts, I’m going to post some positives.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I just finished my 27th book of the year. I am more than halfway toward my goal of reading 52 books for the year.<\/li>\n
  2. It is raining outside, and it’s a nice break from the scorching hot days we had earlier this week.<\/li>\n
  3. The kids are quietly watching TV, which leaves me free to write for a little while.<\/li>\n
  4. I have a stack of new books and movies to keep me busy for the next few weeks.<\/li>\n
  5. I’ve played my piano every day lately, and my hands are not bothering me.<\/li>\n
  6. I bought some swimsuits online, and three of the five fit. I’m tempted to keep all three, though I only need two (a go-to suit and a backup).<\/li>\n
  7. I took time off this week, because I needed a few mental health days, and it was nice not having to think about work for a while.<\/li>\n
  8. I spent more time outside than usual, watching hummingbirds, dragonflies, and bees visit the hostas, picking wild blackberries, and soaking up sunshine “poolside” while reading a good book.<\/li>\n
  9. I’m running out of things to say, but I guess it’s also good that I cleared up some bill-related issues.<\/li>\n
  10. I’ve reached a difficult point in my novel, but I’m feeling positive about it. I’ve written enough stories by now to know that I always reach a point at which the plot doesn’t seem like it’s going to work. As long as I keep the story alive, a solution will eventually occur to me.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
