I’ve been about three thousand percent[1] better than any other time in my life in the writing of the thank-yous this month, but still not getting it done every day. But if I could keep up the 2-a-week thing, I think it would change my life. At least a little. But... Today I’m grateful for the people who agreed to beta-read my latest draft of THE FIFTH GIFT. I finished my last revision on it yesterday and sent it out yesterday. (*GULP*) I’m sure people of character wait at least 24 hours with something like that. Hm.

Strangers? Midday sunlight? Vivaldi in A Minor performed by the London... Ha. Ha ha. Ha ha ha. Mother Nature is absolutely having a joke with me. It is snowing. Right now. Big, fat, wet flakes that are covering my tulips like white stocking caps. Isn’t that hysterical? Snow is sticking to the grass. And the sidewalk. And the road. And the roofs. And my soul. (Just... |
