The lambs have been out for a while, as have the calves, so why does it not feel like Spring today? It is raining and getting colder and darker by the minute… Life I suppose.
Billy is a little trouper – he is off at school now, and this morning was the first morning he didn’t claim to be sick – maybe he is starting to enjoy it. Well at least admitting to me that he is, he has been telling me it is horrible, that he gets picked on, that the day is long… He will think of every excuse under the sun to stay at home with Mum.
And me? Well, strangely enough, I am coping, although I do miss him. And there aren’t 6 hours in a day… whoever had the strange idea that I would have all this free time to write? I sit down at the computer and suddenly feel guilty, so I have to stop… I don’t know, life can be interesting sometimes.
Up to Chapter 13 in editing my story… EDITING! Although the story is getting interesting. Funny how to you put it to one side for a while and then discover it is actually OK! Although I am not happy with one scene in Chapter 13. My friend JC has had a look at it, and told me there is nothing wrong with it, other than being wordy… but it isn’t quite connecting. However contemplating it last night, I have come up with a solution, at this stage anyway. Things can change!
I also have another story idea just bursting out of me, which is kind of hard to ignore, and I had to buy a notebook so that I could get notes down before it drove me crazy. Can’t divulge information yet, but it should be a goodie!
