Spuddling along gracefully, 3.

I write books.

I do! It's true. I have written for all sorts of different audiences. My first book was literary adult fiction and I've written many many books that have fallen into the category "juvenile fiction" and "YA fiction". I talk about my books and writing in general on my other site, which is at www.karenrivers.com. (I don't know how to make that a live link, so you may have to copy and paste.) (Sorry.) THIS site is about me, my hair, my kids, my appliances, and that time that I rode my bike down a cliff and then got stung by a bee. It may not all be appropriately awesome (or even slightly interesting) to kids, so if you are young, LOOK AWAY. That said, there is nothing harmful here, except the occasional swear, which I ask you to edit out with your eyes. Blink blink.

1. A break in the fever.
2. Coffee — when will coffee not be a good thing? The best thing, this morning. I’ll admit it: I do not get people who do not like coffee. What is not to like? It’s DELICIOUS and KEEPS YOU ALIVE.
3. Decisions made for the upcoming year, about preschool of all things. Who thought I’d get swept up in that debacle? Ha ha. Oh, how I used to mock people who fretted about where to put their toddlers for “school”. Then — well, THEN — I put The Bun in a horrific school at 3, which he dropped out of after the third week. My kid is a preschool drop out. Won’t make that mistake again.
4. Robaxacet. See: Bad Back. See: Ongoing whining. I can’t spell Robaxecet and am too lazy to confirm the spelling even though it would entail only a slight shift in my right hand. Sometimes that’s too much trouble.
5. Work done or at least begun, the feeling that a project has finally got wings. This book is going to kick it! It is! Do you hear me, universe?

I spuddle.

I write books.

I take pictures.

Is it safe to eat raw bacon?
