SPEAKER 4
I used to be afraid of the world outside my door. So I lived within the pages of a book. I used to be so scared of what I couldn't control. It seemed whatever I touched, I broke. The wind at my back, the grass so green.

This week is scheduled to be amazing!

As hard as it has been to take this new medication and wade through the yuck, I have had equal portions of good news and laughs. I love having so many children and grandchildren…because life always, ALWAYS provides a chuckle…or ten, to make me smile!

Here’s the microwave version:

  1. Happy Labor Day! Eat good food. Lots of good food. Laugh. Play. Visit with poeple you like =)

  2. Congratz to Riverfang in our community, who won the WorldAnvil GRAND Prize…a cruise to the Bahamas!

  3. Dimitrios Chavlidis, creator and co-founder OF WorldAnvil (and whom I lovingly call ‘Santa’)…has joined our community! Welcome! Welcome!

  4. Oh, and I didn’t mention this in the video, but Hanhula, FROM WorldAnvil WON A YEARS SUBSCRIPTION…for the brilliant article: Karstiver

  5. The Underlings Audiobook is done! It will be for sale this week…

  6. The Underlings COVER is about done, and you’ll get more of that tomorrow.

  7. Chronicles of a Hero, Season 3 is coming to a close - which means Book One will be published soon!!

  8. Mike Rowe and his mom, Peggy, talked about me on his podcast, “The Way I Heard It - with Mike Rowe” …mixed with a poop-eating dog. BY THE WAY….since I AM the artist that did the cover AND I’m also a HUGE fan of Peggy Rowe (if you haven’t read her writing, she truly is brilliant and hilarious), I’d like to ask you to consider pre-purchasing her new book: Oh, No, Not “The Home”

That’s about it.

Oh, and I have 29 grandkids, not 28.

Have a WONDERFUL day AND week.

Buy Some AWESOME Coffee!

Say good morning in a comment! (OR a DM =)

I cannot remember a single night in my life where I slept all the way through (without heavy drugs). Because of this, I never throw coprolite at someone for weird sleep!

Well, except Tom. But Tom was insistent that he could make 20 minutes of sleep every 3 hours into a viable lifestyle. So...that was a series of poor choices that led to him having a complete breakdown. I dumped a bunch of dog lunch all over that idea.

Otherwise, sleep when you sleep. Any time is better than no time, and hey! Now you're BREATHING and isn't that a comfort?! Lol!

Also, stone ground mustard, grilled onions, and a dill pickle spear on my brat, please. And IF you have a poppy seed bun, but regular is also fine.

I’m so glad I went back to Monday and watched this this morning. I did not know you were undergoing treatment and now I am even more amazed by what you accomplish. Wishing you all good things! And looking forward to more updates on The Underlings — I like the aged paper look.

Im doing GOOD so far....all the yuck is 110% worth it...and I'm just being patient with myself and letting my body do...whatever, as I walk this path.

...and my work keeps me focused and away from...'reality'...most days.
