Cold Monday

Currently Reading: Heart of the Bear by Ms Pape:)


We're in for a snowstorm tonight and tomorrow night. If everything comes in as planned, we will get 2-3 inches tonight and up to 6 inches (plus some sleet) tomorrow. Which means....my celebratory party won't take place (again!)

Yes, I'm getting snarky. Which was a topic on the CBS Early Show.

Snarky: A combination of 'snide' and 'remark'; a sarcastic comment.

Really? Is that what it means?

(Warning....Snarky Moment Ahead!)
I'm sorry, but we had good weather for T's birthday and even B's. But mine...nooooo! Only one person showed. And now when I have good news to share, what happens? More bad weather.

Okay, enough of that.

On Today's To-Do List:
-Laundry. K went on a cold BSA camping trip and I think he wore everything he owns in order to stay warm and dry. He had a great time, but the majority of his wardrobe, including three fleece blankets, are wet, cold, and in the laundry chute.

-Writing. I'm still knocking out 2-3 pages a day on my Off The Clock story. I'm not sure if there's a word count restriction, but since I'm the only one working on their story, I'll write until the story is complete. I'll go back and make changes later.

-Mailing in my contract and start work on the cover info. I've already discovered I put down the wrong age of my hero. Oops! Maybe I need to go back and read my own damn book again?? As if I didn't read it enough last week...

-And finally, go grocery shopping and stock up on a few items since we won't be leaving the house until maybe Thursday!

Snowing here. Very, very light. No accumulation. Have a good day today!

I apologize for not commenting on the contract. You did tell me privately and I'm very pleased for you!! I know you are excited. Persistence always pays.

That wasn't directed at my online friends, sweetie:) I was referring to my writer's group tomorrow night:) I guess it won't kill me to wait another week...but it seems as if everyone else's successes are celebrated on time, while mine get pushed back. That was my self-drecating snarkiness:) I'd rather be snarky at myself than at someone else's expense...although I've been known for it to slip out at times!

Also doesn't help when you throw in a massive case of PMS...

BRRRR. When I listen to ya'll talk about the weather up north, I remind myself to stop bitching and whining. It's really not that bad here. YAY on getting the contract/cover stuff together. Always seems there's a ton of paperwork.

Oops...that's self-DEPRACATING. Damn fingers are cold!
