I counted and it was week 11, but I could've miscounted. :shrug: I could go online and check, but meh. I'm unmotivated this morning. Big surprise, I know. Bu then I haven't been overflowing with motivation this year, have I?
You know the drill... no writing, no editing. The usual marketing. I moved 20 copies of Project Hermes. No residuals there yet. On the upside, my previous marketing efforts have gained me 20+ sales this month so far. It might not seem like much, but it's better than all but 2 months in the last couple years at least. So yay. This week UNEQUAL will be free. The week after that the entire A Model Curse series will be free.
No reading. I DNF'd the book I was reading because it wasn't holding my interest enough. :shrug: I might try some non-fiction for a while and see if that sparks me.
No baking. Which works for me because my ever-widening ass could use a break from all that.
On the activity front, I was pretty busy. I only spent one day sitting on said EWA. It's Spring and all the things need doing. Plus, we had what appears to be the last cold days until next fall, so we were in the woods doing work. I don't know my weight because stepping on the scale is depressing.
One of the 'needs doing' things is clearing my garden beds of the leaves from last fall. Yesterday, I hauled about 4 wheelbarrow loads of leaves out of the front garden. My peonies are happy now. Today, I need to do the shade bed and the south bed. That'll leave me with the cedar bed in the middle of the yard, which needs weeding more than leaf removal.
I've also been working on my deck garden. (See Wednesday's post.) Unfortunately, it seems like I killed two pots worth of carrots somehow. I suspect I either knocked them down the day I had to water with the big jug or the first really hot day zapped them. It disheartening, but I have more seeds, so I can plant again. Still no sign of the potatoes. They have until the next time I hit the grocery store (10 days at least) and if I don't see any signs of growth, I'll buy more potatoes to plant.
I went to Wallyworld. Yes, prices are up again. No, I'm not pissed... well, not much... because at least there's a good reason behind it. I can bear the burden of higher prices if it means crushing the Iranian regime. The little bit of pissed I am comes more from the idea that some of these prices were raised in anticipation of rising costs.
Not much else going on in my life, really. It's hot but I'll get used to it. I'm a little sore from bending over the garden yesterday, but I'll get over it. All in all, I don't have much to bitch about. (Not that that's ever stopped me before. LOL)
Have a great day out there, whatever you're doing. Peace out.
