Okay…sitting down to my second diet soda of the day for the first time all year. I’ve really been trying to cut back, but today…I earned it.

Four loads of laundry run and hung.

One load of dishes run.

And STILL managed to edit 5 chapters, at least one of which needed major rewrites.

SKELLYMAN looks on track to be finished — AGAIN — tomorrow. At which point I will send it out to a new group of beta readers, some who have read it before, some who haven’t, and see if it is ready to fly. Lord, I am ready to kick it out of the house! lol

I also managed to clear 5 episodes of Once Upon a Time (it was a marathon weekend) out of the DVR. Almost empty now. A handful of Leverage episodes — including the finale — and that is it. Of course, it is about to record Castle, but that is fine by me. 🙂

[I always include the links, just in case someone stumbling on my blog hasn’t seen a show I mention…let me know if I should stop.]

I have playdates for lunch on Wednesday and Les Mis on Thursday. It is so cool to have friends to do things with again! So far, 2013 is looking like a VERY good year…

Though I must confess, it is harder to get any cleaning done these days. I find that if I am writing, I want to be writing. If I am not writing, I look for any excuse not to sit down and do it — including housework.

But there must be a balance, and I WILL…eventually…find it. 🙂

Tracking:

Today I cleaned — LOTS of laundry, a load of dishes, and took down the Christmas lights.

Today I weighed — 187.4 (steady is better than up)

Today I wrote/revised — 5 chapters of SKELLYMAN
