Pia
In case you haven’t paid attention to the pictures, Pia is a multi-colored dragon, younger than Grabon, not yet fully mature, small in stature, slight of build, and of course, Grabon thinks she’s stunning. She has a rare talent of enhancing people’s connection to the planet using her drum and singing. She gives voice to…
Neighbors
We have some wonderful neighbors. This morning I was up early, but I never noticed them cleaning the fresh snow off my driveway or digging out my sidewalk. What a nice bunch of people: and while I can guess whom it might be, I can’t be sure. We’ll see if some careful snooping tells the…
Mattie and Jenny
When Heron first meets Jenny, she is four cycles and Mattie is six. They quickly grow and age as they move from book to book. Jenny of course is Trissy’s half sister. Mattie is adopted from a Farmer, she is the result of a that Farmer’s infidelity and his wife could not raise her without…
Sensers
This morning with a forecast of snow as a possibility, Shawn suggested we go over to my parents and help clear some of the ice away from the cars and from in front of the garage doors. We loaded up the heavy shovel, the tile scraper, and Shawn’s wheel chair along with a few other…
Characters
I have some very interesting characters. Just to name a few, I came up with a little list. Who are your favorites and why? Whether you are looking at Jamie and Janie the human sisters who traded sex for coins to earn their way and are respected and included in the clan. Then there are…
Solutions
I have a wonderful friend who is painting the basement as a house warming gift. While engaged in this project, he also helped with the mind bending problem of the light fixture over the stairs. It looks like an ancient affair, crusted with dirt inside and out and obviously the bulb needed to be changed.…
Prequel: Mitana
As a new territory dragon, Mitana was intimidated by the council, so even though she wasn’t thrilled with the idea of having to watch the beasts that arrived in the flying baskets, she did. As her clan grew, she sent representatives to watch them, but those first ten cycles she watched them herself. Those poor…
House Warming
A great friend of ours had a unique idea for a house warming gift. I picked out the colors and he is painting the downstairs rooms, what will be our library and the sitting room. He not only brought the paint, tools, and other necessities, he brought company for the job. We are thrilled to…
Inspections
We were lucky enough to get on a list for a furnace inspection. This is to make sure our system is properly maintained, in good working order, and to recommend any work that might need to be done. Being in a new house this is particularly important and it was not very expensive when compared…
Locked 🔒 Out
Six times yesterday I tried to get on the website and do a post and I finally gave up last night. Today I was calling Bryon and like magic it worked and here I am, writing away. I think my tech curse is alive and well. While being locked out, I thought of six or…
Shoveling Ice
Ice managed to cover everything, more than an inch thick and making walking, driving, and stopping somewhat difficult. Cleaning the sidewalk, steps and the area around the vehicle seemed like a good place to start. We have a handy dandy tool. It is a tile scraper, used to scrape up tile floors. It lifts up…
Prequel: Humans
It took weeks of backbreaking work and countless aching muscles and injuries for the humans to situate themselves well enough to plan the first feast. Certain couples were not included in the festivities because others felt they had not contributed enough. Those farmers had been selfish in staking out their land and planting their seeds.…
