On the Personal Front

I’m knee deep in writing lately, trying to meet deadlines and be productive and finish projects I’ve fallen so behind on due to- well, life.

But today I have to stop and reflect on one thing: my baby is now 11 months old. Next month he’ll be a year. How is that possible? I remember the morning I went in to have him with so much clarity it literally feels like yesterday. The first 3-4 months passed in such a haze of sleep deprivation, new mom worries, and emotional burnout that I hardly remember them.

So here I am, with a beautiful, hysterical, walking almost-toddler and I just feel overwhelmingly blessed to be his mommy.

That is all.

So much for my day off…

I was supposed to get up and clean rearrange the casa and such. Except I woke up and the clock said 4pm. Maybe I was tired? Ha, ha. Wow. That’s like a whole day, gone.

I feel a bit better actually. In better spirits. But I have a lot to do. So I thought I’d stop by and see how your Wednesday went.

What Happened?

So, last time I posted was on the 4th.

How in the world is it already the 7th? Did I miss something? The days are just sort of running into each other. I haven’t even had a chance to think about the fact that it’s already 3 days later. Wow. Weird. Not that it’s a bad thing though. I mean, I’m busy. And as long as I’m busy, I’m not in jail, or breaking any laws, or out partying (although I want to be, there’s this really awesome karaoke competition I wanted to be a part of and the grand prize was sooo good and I swear I tried to work it out but unfortunately there are just too many things on my plate).

But, it also means I’m not writing. YET. Thankfully, the weekend is coming. My CP and I have already set the weekend for some serious plotting. She and I are going to get to work until our eyes bleed. Eww, ok, no Oedipus comments, that visual is just disgusting.

I’m going to get to work on my series, plot my characters, make sure my hero is done right since he’s a complex individual with a lot of complexities (lol, I know some of you know exactly where that’s from). Plus, because it’s like a 4 book series, (thus far) I’ve got wayyy too much happening in my noggin, so I need to make sure I’m organized. I’m just glad to have a plan. A direction. I feel like I’ll be truly productive that way.

Now, on another random note, I’m starving. I just got home from rehearsal (the play is going really well by the way) and we open next month. The kids are working really hard, it’s sounding good, and the 80s are looking more and more appealling. Between the amount of hairspray, singing, wild colors and leg warmers we’ll be sporting, I think we have a winner on our hands. Months of hard work will see fruition. What a buzz! Now, I just wish I had a cheeseburger. And a coffee.
