I just can't seem to not feel tired lately. Even when I get to be early, I'm just dragging. I think some of it's blasted DST.

Sage had her kittens - SIX of them, and they're adorable. Sage lets me scratch her ears while she's feeding the brood, and she'll come out to eat and drink and be totally okay with me handling them (had to take out icky towel and replace with fresh blankie) Photos forthcoming when they're a little more out in the open. Vet says Ebony should have hers within a week.

Got my new suitcase and it's much bigger than I thought it would be, but I like it!

I'm seeing posts about 'Ezzie' nominations. I've gathered it's an Ezra fic award thingie, yes? And if any of my fic gets nominated, someone will tell me, right? I'm so out of the loop these days!

Speaking of Ezra, I've decided to backtrack and change the POV in the part of 'West' I've been writing to his from Charlotte's. I think it'll work better. On the other hand, the whole tired thing has meant no writing is happening.

I am so glad it's Friday and am so looking forward to the PWFC Road Trip at the end of April! I need a break, even a short one.

Listening to "Lewis & Clark, Sounds of Discovery" - I'd forgotten how much I like it.

Was sad to see Fess Parker died. I loved Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone when I was a little girl.

We have 50 mph gusts tonight and things are banging and crashing outside. Being a California coast girl, it's still weird to me to get such strong winds and keep power. I just instinctively keep waiting for the power to cut out.

Yay for the kitties! Wish I could take one or three off your hands!

Fess Parker died?! I hadn't heard. I loved him as Daniel Boone.

Sorry you're so tired. I can relate. Of course the stress just drains you as well. *hugs*

Thanks. I'm pretty sure a lot of it's stress.

Sorry you are so tired. Sometimes, it doesn't matters what you do today, is the accumulative effect what wastes you. Maybe this weekend you'll be able to rest enough and feel better.
Oh, kittens! Congratulations to Sage! *g* Your place will be filled with kittens in a week, then? It will be such fun! Kittens are always adorable, and so fun to watch! I spent hours watching mines :)
"Ezzie" nominations? Didn't see them. But them, I'm mostly reading just my narrow filter in my flist, so no a lot of chances I knew about them.
Fess Parker died? Oh, man! Daniel Boone! *is sad*

Kittehs for the win!

Yay for kittens! *waits for photos*... Kittens usually do make the life a little better, even when everything else fails...

Looking forward to kitty pics!
The Ezzies aren't just for fic, but for art, web sites, and other categories. One of your icons has been nominated. Feel free to nominate your own work! It's a good way to expose it to others who might not have see it.

Will see if can mange some soon. It's just hard when they're in a dark kitty carrier.

Thanks for the info. I'm just not comfortable tooting my own horn, as it were :)

I guess I can understand that, although I have no problem with it myself. :)

Fess died? I missed that. :-/

I think that I have to be one of the very few who absolutely loves DST!! The downside is that I'm not ready to go to bed at night, and morning comes quickly, especially since it is calving season. But I love the daylight in the evenings, and the darkness at THIS part of the morning doesn't bother me in the least. What is wrong with me? LOL

I hate getting up in the dark so much. I'm a night person,nd I like my night to be dark and my mornings to be light LOL

You know, I think that where I live, just very close to the edge of mountain time, we experience more light than others. My brother, who lives in eastern Iowa, for example, has shorter "days" than we do. Even in eastern South Dakota (where I grew up), it's not quite as light for as long as it is up here. So that may be part of why it doesn't hit me like it does other people in other regions.

But it makes sense....dark at night, light at day...you got that right!

We're 20 minutes away from the Pacific time zone, so it makes it even worse than when we lived on the coast. At 7am, it's still dark outside, and sky is just beginning to lighten at 7:30.

Yay, congrats for the nominations - and the kittehs! I'd love a kitteh of my own, but my aunt is allergic. :(

I'm sorry you feel tired; I can certainly relate. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's only temporary.
