Not Writing

By -
My manuscript has been out of my hands since June 17. Because of that, I haven't worked on it. Why bother? I'll need to consider the feedback my cohorts will be giving me on July 15.

In the meantime, since I haven't been writing, don't you wonder what I have been doing?

Aside from play with the kids or read to Melina, so far I've:
  • Painted a dresser
  • Decluttered Melina's room
  • Rearranged several storage cabinets
  • Thrown away junk from the basement
  • Cleaned out my closet
  • Went through old clothes of the kids
  • Spot cleaned a few carpets
  • Found out that Aaron has hardwood floors under his carpet
My house and things like it when I'm not writing.

"Oh, Melina, how are you?" they squeal, or, "Can I have a hug, too?"  Melina is happy to oblige. All of that happened before we even made it into the front office to check in.  There, her celebrity status continued.  &
