This Writer’s Life

My youngest son recently purchased a Tesla Model Y. The other day, he said “Let’s go for a drive.” This was my first time ever touching a Tesla and I had trouble just getting in. For those of you who have never been around the car, the door handles are flush with the body of the vehicle. You press them and they pop out.

The winter has been mild, and that often distracts me from my writing.

This morning, as I ate breakfast, several deer wandered into the front yard. At first, I saw only two and informed my wife. If we have apples, she usually tosses one or two to the deer. I got up and looked. There were now six in the yard. I retrieved my camera, and by the time I stepped out to take a picture, there were eight deer.

I’m retired but I have several jobs that keep me busy.

I spend most of my day writing manuscripts for books, opinion articles for my other website, The Conservative Alternative, blogposts like this one, or social media posts. Those are the usual tasks that consume my day but I still have another job.
