    Monday? No, Thank You

    Hello Monday 🙂  I’m trying to be enthusiastic as I greet you but it’s just one of those Mondays. Yes, the paint is up on the wall now and I’m happy about that, but looking around I’m sure it will take me the next month to get the house back to rights (was it me that had this bright idea?). And BTW just over a month is what I have now before the dear twins are home so all of a sudden I feel like I need to get the house to rights and my other work in order too. You know the other work, that pesky little thing called a book I’ve been working on well, forever!
    So now it’s tick tock, wake up Monday’s here, but all I can feel is uh, no, thank you.

    But no worries. I’m up typing this aren’t I?

    Best,
    Kwana

    Resolve

    Hey party people what you been up to? I know I’m awfully quiet lately,  but see though I said no resolutions, I have made one…

     

     

     

    So it’s keeping me pretty busy. How about you? Any resolutions?

     

    Best,

    Little Problems

    May we all have days like this. Hoping to get some good writing done today. I’ve been off writing for the past 2 weeks with the twins at home and Christmas but now I must get back on track. They are still here, but the tree is down and I must close myself off for a few hours a day to fall into the story again. May this be the only obstacle of the day.

     

    Best,

    Great Day

    Well it’s the last day of November and I’m happy to say I made my self imposed NaNo goal adding 50,000 new words (go me). But with all the new twists and turns this book is still far from done. Sorry I’ve been MIA on the blog but I’ve been saving all my words for the page and that’s where my head has been.

    Jack sends you all a good morning today though from his little bed where he spends much of his time guarding me and making sure I don’t stop typing. Have a great one!

     

     

    All the best,

    Kwana

    And Yeah Still

    Have you gotten the theme? Yes, my head is down or at least it should be and the words should be mounting. Mounting I say or is it more like pray at this point?

    Though I’m on my trusty laptop. In my mind I’m imagining myself on one of these wonderful vintage numbers writing the book of my life. The one that changes it all.

     

     

    Hey, what is life without a dream?

     

     

    Best,

    Back to the Nest

    So this crazy October snow that we got has caused one of my baby birds to return to the nest for the week since her college is in a hard hit area and has been without full power since Saturday. And though it’s lovely to have her back home guess what? I got a little used to my quiet little life at home.

    I call it a NaNo Whamo coming at the time when I’m in a writing frenzy and thought I had my writing plan all mapped out. It’s like last year all over again. Surely I’m thought of as a bad mom right now to be like you want to sleep where? Well, be quiet about it why don’t you! Oh and hugs kisses welcome home. Yep, I’m a giver.

     

     

    Best,
    Kwana
