Monday Weekend
Last night finished off with me spilling almost a full cup of water at my place at the table, over a pile of paperwork.
Yeah, that was my whole weekend right there. It almost reduced me to tears. An emotionally brutal weekend, going from unpleasant things to pleasant but OMG stressful things, with various chores in between. The great things were great but exhausting, the bad things were verreh verreh bad and exhausting.
I woke up this morning feeling like it was Monday, and also feeling like it was the beginning of a weekend. I know I’m Gemini and always of two minds about ANYTHING, but this is ridiculous.
For right now, the next Jill book is beckoning me. I think it’s going to turn out differently than I had planned, which is good. There’s something terrifying about knowing the ending and the beginning, but nothing in between. (Hey. Just like life!) At least I’ve got the next couple scenes and I can get through those with little trouble.
As long as today just stays calm and relatively quiet. Non-eventful.
Why are you laughing like that? *grin*
Over and out.

Boy, I’ve had weekends like that. In fact, our mostly functional family tends to have majorly disfunctional moments where we will ALL get into a family ….”discussion” ; I’m sure my kids will never talk to each other or us again. Sucks. Then things settle down and we’re back to being a “family”, whatever that really is.
“yeah, sure… put the lid back on the sippy cup of merlot.” Maybe I should start drinking and blame it on menopause?
That did make me laugh. But we all have horrible moments. Except for those damn people who seem to be the golden people, things always go right, their kids all go to college and get wonderful jobs, everyone is happy all the time… they’re all lying!

Chores are the price we pay for living independently. Love ‘em or lump ‘em, they still need to get done.
However, chores are infinitely better than bills.
Regardless, I wanted to drop in and say “hello”, thank you for the hours of entertainment, and wish you well in the rest of your week. Hopefully things carry on in a more acceptable manner.
V/R,

Sorry to hear about your wretched weekend, where the only good news is that it’s in the past.
I’m glad you’re working on the next Jill book. I was at our local mega bookstore this weekend, where sadly enough the fantasy section is growing rather sparse, and imagine my delight to see that half a shelf was devoted to your books. Prominently displayed.
