“I’m going to lie down,” I told Bly at about noon.  Five hours later… So did I get anything done today?  Well, a little.  I cut 550 words.  I ran some stuff to the new house.  I slept. Yay, sleep.

Moving Sux

As much as I love the house, moving sucks.  I want to be writing with my last week of vacation, not moving. That said, I managed absolutely nothing in the way of furthering my career today.  Well, I guess reading a bit in the Snarkives will be helpful eventually.  It’s like reading on in my

The Mundanities of Life

Did I just create a new word?  I think so.  Gee, aren’t I awesome. 31,199 words.  Geez, did I complain about yesterday’s total?

Visiting

I thought it was a natural assumption.  For at least ten years, when Grandma said be there at four, it was because we were having dinner with them. Oops. I blame Hope.  She wanted to make a phone call, I told her to call my grandparents.  She told Grandma she was calling to make arrangements

Last Thursday

I got through three and a half drawers today.  yay me. Somehow, though, I have come to passionately hate filing. I had Hope with me for the afternoon, Thomas had an appt.  She behaved pretty well, but she wouldn’t keep her shoes on.  I warned her several times, then she lost our after-work planned adventure.
