When you lie in bed — seriously — and are blogging in your dreams, and writing the headline.
I’m in northern Ontario for the moment, staring as I write this out the window at pine trees overlooking a lake. Two grizzled black dogs snooze on their beds. The sweetie is snoozing in a chair by the woodstove and our host, my best friend from high school, is making ribs for dinner.
The sweetie planned to play golf but (really!) came home after running into snow squalls, only to discover all the carts were being put away for the season.
So it’s a blessed afternoon of eat/sleep/read/repeat. Pat dogs. Stare into fire. Admire the autumn colors.
Not writing!
My brain is frazzled and fried: finishing up the final revisions of my memoir; blogging for four sites; planning events for the book’s release next spring. Like a farmer’s field that needs to just lie farrow for a while to re-generate its fertility, this week is desperately needed downtime for my weary head.
Soon…within three or four days…I’ll be up and running again.

Northern Ontario…in the bush is some amazing camping…many wonderful memories there…be safe.
