I almost fell off the wagon yesterday, the writing one that is. I was tired, I still am tired… totally frustrated by the lack of time in my day for writing, by many other little things that I’m not going to bitch about here, and life in general that I almost let it get to [...]

Lauren is much improved today. I am actually typing with two hands!!!!
And I got the plastering finished this morning, hopefully it’s dry by the time Dad arrives this afternoon and he’ll approve of my work. I’m fairly certain that while I did a great job for a first timer, he’ll end up putting another coat [...]

I was emailing Karen yesterday and she mentioned that she was trying to do a chapter a day on her novel editing.
I realized that I’d been doing roughly that (though, more like, 2 chapters every two days), and decided that I’d set myself the same kind of timeline. It was amazing to think that within [...]

The girls [...]

Productive day

So, I seem to have bounced back into ‘work’ very nicely after two days where I felt like I got a lot of nothing done.
I’ve started using the gmail tasks app and I love it – the little tick, the line through the item you’ve completed, it’s lovely. Makes me feel like I’m accomplishing things [...]

A guilt free day off

I didn’t write yesterday, not because I didn’t want to, but because I thought a day off would be good.
Typically prior ‘day off’s have been decided at the end of the day, when I’m tired and the baby has fallen asleep on me, or things just aren’t clicking – in reality, that’s not much of [...]

Seriously, sometimes I am totally fine with it, and other days it’s all I can do to get through til a reasonable sleeping hour (yes, 8pm IS a reasonable hour to go to bed!).  A couple of nights ago my best sleep was 2.5hours (her tummy was sore), which really isn’t a whole lot, so [...]
