Busy, Busy... and Breathe

Whoosh... And like that a week without the little has dwindled down to a few hours of quiet time at home without her left.

We have been busy. Work, Jack Johnson concert, work, crawfish boil prep, work, tonight, work, kickboxing, crawfish boil... never ending.

I have a massage scheduled for next Tuesday... What!?!? I like never get massages.

I haven't been very introspective this week - just been busy. I miss my routine even though my routine includes very little time for me. I obviously struggle with too much time on my hands.

Gotta get back on track with my goals. (Takes a bite of leftover pizza)

Gonna get my butt kicked at kickboxing tomorrow.

Ready to veg on the couch with Netflix - ahhh... Motivation, wherefore art thou, Motivation?

I have got to reel in my diet. I am utterly miserable at my current weight. Ahh... September. What excitement will you bring? I will wake up September first in Starkville. We will go to the festival and do lots of walking I'm sure. I c...

What's My Type?

Ahh... Road trip. Got lots of typing done. Well, maybe 8 or 9 chapters, but it felt like a major accomplishment. Working on building suspense now. I mean I have a definite plot arc but have struggled with keeping the reading suspenseful and not getting bogged down in character development. I love the story - does this translate to a readable story to others? Is my genre romance or suspense? It's not overly suspenseful, but it's also not really romantic - although there is attraction. What do readers want? I guess I'll have to publish to find out :) --magpie
