Getting Around on Your Knees
Oct. 7th, 2009 02:19 pmAccording to Mason, he spent yesterday's skating practice mostly just getting around on his knees. (Poor guy, though he sounds like me.)
I feel I can kind of relate. This week is crazy-busy.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
naomikritzer read my book in about ten minutes, so I was over there yesterday to get critique. I just settled in to get that done by this weekend so Shawn will have a chance to proof it before it goes to the editor, when who should e-mail, but said-editor. Could she send along the revisions for HONEYMOON or would it break my stride with ALMOST?
Did I mention we're headed for Indiana on October 15 to spend a couple of days with Grandma?
Yet I always remind myself in times like these, that these are the problems I DREAMED of having for years. I really can't complain. I have work. Not only that, it's work I LOVE. It's work that I can do while at home, and, on days like today, take a two hour break to putter in the garden in the bright October sunshine.
In other news, the house is a complete mess. I can't seem to get out from under the dishes. AND I just found a well-over due library book of Mason's neatly shelved on his bookshelf, *and* another one that belongs to his school in the computer room on the floor. Ye gods. We have too many books in this house.
Oh, and the gerbils stink. They need a change of bedding. I should get up and do that, but, listen, there's a warm cat on my lap. Would you get up? No, I didn't think so.
I got the cover art for my last Garnet book. I'm waiting to see if it's okay to post it, but I'm going to warn you: they changed artists. And the font. The whole style really. You can tell me what you think when I get it up.
Yeah, and Gaylaxicon is this weekend, right?
