I started this an hour ago and then got distracted by social media. There are some really interesting things out there. And some really awful things. Some days I can't handle wading through the awful to get to the interesting. There are also a boatload of ludicrous things. I was also supposed to do marketing and I woke up in plenty of time, but the time I have left before I call Mom is running out. I guess I'll market after I talk to Mom.
Yes, I call my mom almost every morning. She gets Friday and Sunday off from me. We talk about everything... and nothing. Sometimes we talk about the same things over and over. Sometimes we gripe about stuff over and over. I don't care. She's not getting any younger and eventually there will come a day when I can't talk to her ever again, so I'm grateful for every word now.
I need to cut Hubs' hair again. It's been a while and he's starting to look shaggy. Plus, it's driving him nuts. Maybe this afternoon I'll finally get 'er done. I would've done it yesterday, but my wrist was giving me trouble after Tuesday's pizza kneading.
I love making pizza, but it's hell on the wrists. Oo, that reminds me... I'm out of cinnamon rolls. Lucky for me, those don't require a lot of kneading.
Oh, I finished the 5th draft of my manuscript last night. And I sent it off to my first reader. I need to contact others to see if they're still willing and able to read for me. I'm still torn about the title, so for ease's sake, let's just call it DN2. Now that it's off to be read, I need to work on cover art. And maybe get back to writing again. But not today. Today is a day of rest. And reading other people's books.
Tra la la.
Okay, I need to go use the little writer's room, fill my coffee mug, and get ready to call Ma. Have a great day out there, folks. And leave a comment if you're so inclined. Thanks!
It's so cool that you and your mom are so close. I miss my dad for that reason.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, the stupidity on social media boggles the mind. Still, there are accounts that pop up that make me laugh--or at least smile. There are others that think like I do on my hot-button issues. And some folks I just like to connect with for the sake of connection.
My intenrnal clock is so messed up right now and I have clue what time it is or what I'm supposed to be doing at any given moment.
Lunch today--as I munch and type--is salad with sliced smoked brisket, provolone cheese, bleu cheese dressing, and tortilla chips.
I have it and I'll get 'round to it. Looking forward!
Later, tater.
