Hi! I'm still behind; not having my baby for 8 days really threw me. I could go online with my IPad and phone, but I couldn't write. Even if I wrote stuff on Google docs, I couldn't access what I had already written because it's on my flash drive and in cyber space.

My plan is to write 2 stories for "Change the World" and I have a piece of an idea for "Sheriff," and I am nowhere near close to finishing the first tale. I was in Neptune Wednesday - Friday and went to one of Long Island's vineyards Saturday. I started writing again yesterday.

I read the prompt for the RR (very good, BTW) but I haven't read anything else. I know my chapter is due Wednesday, so tomorrow my plan is to start at the beginning and read it through and take it from there.

"Change the World" depending on my mood, can make me smile or cry. Love that song.

I'm juggling a few things right now and trying not to drop any. I'm leaving 11/2 for Nevada so I have to go vote within the next 2 weeks, my complex is supposed to be repaving my parking lot while I'm gone so I'm making arrangements for my car to be moved and returned to its spot, I've been trying to work on some stuff for mom. I guess I'm feeling a little stress, but with everything I get accomplished, it eases. I'll feel better once I post my song story and my RR chapter.

Wow you really are busy, and I forgot you were sans baby for a week+.

You're going to love the RR when you read it! Everyone is doing a fabulous job. It's up to me to end it so I have a lot of details to pay attention to...wow.


Still working on a Song Story...I was barely able to squeak in a QuoteMe story on Saturday, though I really didn't like how it came out. Not a lot of comments so I'm guessing the readers didn't care for it either. Can't win 'em all. lol!

Take a deep breath, have a cocktail and put your feet up while you read, and write. "D
