No Turkey Here!

Except, you know.  In the fridge. Thanks to the wonderful kindness of friends, sharing their bounty of leftovers with us.  Don’t think they didn’t.  That wasn’t the turkey I was talking about. Okay, so maybe that wasn’t the best hook.  But…didn’t I tell you my word count today would be better?  Two word wars and […]

Freedom!

I’m free, I’m free! So it’s only a four-day freedom.  I AM FREE!! I’m aware my word count doesn’t reflect it.  Not yet, anyway.  Give me a break, I did work.  And then I had to go to the bank, and the store.  (NOT the grocery store, I’m not that crazy!) 662 words is the

Like Thursday Only Better

It’s Tuesday.  Only it’s really…like a Thursday.  ’cause after tomorrow, I’ve got the rest of the week off.  And December is even more full of days off. And tomorrow is payday.  There are things about my job I like after all.  😀 Umm, today’s total…1,856 words, for a grand total of 42,116.  Thanks to word

Not me, Hope.  Miss Let’s-drive-everyone-around-me-insane didn’t take her medicine this morning. That’ll teach everyone who doesn’t think she needs it. I don’t think she did it on purpose, but she did make things worse by lying about it.  I could have gotten her pills to her–if I’d known before 1300 that she didn’t have them.

Procrastinator Extraordinaire

Yeah, that’s me.  What of it? Hey.  I needed to do laundry.  And clean out the freezer.  Give the dog a haircut.  Give the bird an extensive preen.   Re-arrange Hope’s closet.  Screw with my blog.  (Yeah, I know I screwed it UP.  Deal till I have the patience to beat it into submission.  Please.) Avoid

Don't Wanna…

Uh oh.  Got a problem here. I’ve been rocketing along these past two days.  Word wars blast the hell out of procrastination.  I’ve got another 4,872 words of progress, bringing the total to…WOOT!!…35,055.  Not only am I no longer behind–I’m ahead. But now we’ve got a problem.  My characters are in deep, deep, doo-doo, and

Word Warrior!

Thank God for word wars! My total today–are you ready for this?–five thousand, three hundred thirty words! Whoohoohoo!  I broke 25k, AND THEN 30k today! Word wars–where you simply post that you’re going for the…whatever start time you’ve chosen, and write as fast as you can until time is up–may save me.  I may make
