First, something from leaves of Gold. Thanks to Save As Image (dot com); and to this page on Facebook.

In Toastmasters, I spoke about “the little voice” and how listening to it usually is a good idea. Maybe these are the whispers Faber is referring to in the quote, above. 

Now, on to writing…. One of my goals, which remains a goal, is to make this the first thing I do each day. As I know it always makes me feel better, writing is a high priority for me, but there are at least two other things that always come first. Well, there are three or four, depending on how you count. Two dogs, coffee, and if she is home, Margaret comes first. Though Margaret first may mean making coffee and keeping the dogs quiet for another hour or more, after I get up, which makes writing pretty difficult to do.

In a perfect world, I would arise to fresh coffee, walk out the door to my studio - where no dogs or wives are allowed for the first hour or more - where I could write in peace, as I ponder the musings of the day. I’ll put that on my list of dreams.

So, there it is. That’s all I’m going to say for now.
