Day 310, Everybody's working for the weekend....

The weekend has arrived, and just as I have for so many Fridays,,, I find myself perched comfortably in my chair. Relaxing. My duties for the district are officially over until August 9th. Of course, there are two weeks remaining of K12 Science Alliance duties,,,,but then, that's why they pay me the BIG bucks!! ha ha ha ha ha.... Yup, dats a good one :)

Tonight I went to the Happy Buddha and got a foot massage. I would like to say I enjoyed it, but since I spent most of the time drooling and sawing logs,,, I honestly can't say. They could have taken a break and had tea for all I know.

Finished the second book in the Hunger Games series... Catching Fire. Wow...., what a way to leave you hanging! Makes me more anxious than ever to get moving on my own.

Tomorrow I am going to buy our couch. I doubt anyone in the world cares about that... but I figure hey, it's my blog, and I care. In fact, I'm ecstatic. I'm downright giddy about the whole thing!!!

Gotta love Friday night. :)

Day 206, Finally Friday

TGIF!!!! I felt like a normal person for the first time in three weeks... knock on wood. Looks like I'm finally on the mend ... for real this time. I know you are all breathing easier now ;) Nah,..., you're just waiting to see if I'll do better at those RAKs. Uh huh.

Hmm. Heard back from the publisher today.... More work to do.... Sigh! But how exciting to feel another step closer to actually being published and read. Wow. So, it's back to the drawing board for some more revisions... but then... who knows what lurks outside that newly opened window ???

Day 166, R & R

I'm just a lazy louse today. I dragged my butt to the gym this morning; that was my big outing for the day. Okay, I did not drag my butt, RON dragged my butt to the gym. Good thing, I was already thinking of reasons why I shouldn't go. When will I get to the point that I enjoy working out? And when will I lose my sweet tooth? I need a workout ninja and diet nazi to whip me into proper shape! Hawaii is 5 1/2 months away...I gotta lot of work to do if I'm going to put on a swimsuit and stroll along the beaches of Maui.

Been editing my book---always an on-going project. I admit, it improves with each edit, but I am still am not satisfied with the first 10 pages.....and that isn't good. If I can't grab an agent or publisher's attention in the first few pages, they won't care how good the rest of the story is. On the other hand, I still fall in love with my characters every time I pick up the book...no matter what page I turn to. Wish I could get moving on the sequel. I'm afraid the fact that I haven't written it might have turned off the publisher in Idaho. Sigh.

RAK? ??? ??? ??? A long, lingering silence hung thick in the air. ... ... ...

Day 40

I still can't get the MP3 file to upload... darn. Anyone out there know how to do it?

It's finally Friday, and I am looking forward to sleeping past 5am tomorrow. I have ten minutes to get my blog posted, and my mind is a total blank. Suddenly, I have no memories of the day...nothing clever to say...no inspirational thought to ponder...no quote to share. I spent an hour in a massage chair having a European pedicure.... Now THAT's the way to finish off a week. Topped that off with a trip to In and Out.


Tonight I had a parent payback moment. I received a letter of appreciation from my daughter. That made my whole week. Tomorrow my son turns 18. How did my kids grow up so fast?
Oops... it's midnight. I missed my deadline. Too bad... Deduct 10% from my grade :)
