I went to the beach today. With Patricia and Emma. It was great. The sun was shining, the water was sparkling, and Emma was running a mile a minute. Sometimes you just need to get out in the sun. It really does something for the soul. We came home and watched In Her Shoes, which was a pretty good movie. It had a couple of tearful moments at the end. The rest of the movie I just wanted to smack Cameron Diaz’s character. :) I haven’t actually read this book, although I did read Jen’s other book Good in Bed.
Ah… I’m listening to The Imperial March again. I’m not a big Star Wars fan, it’s all right, but I love the arrangement of this piece. I drum along, hum along, direct along, and really pull out my music major roots on this song. But that’s just one song in the middle of a bunch of country music. And the more I listen, the more I love it. So sorry to all my friends who would rather listen to nails on a chalkboard than country music. But I think I’ve been converted.
Well, I’m almost done editing Once Upon a Snowflake. Finishing up some edits, and then I’ll send it out. Ah, my sweet, undersexed Christmas story for the family. Next it’s onto the series novella I signed up to write for CP. It’s going to have some paranormal aspects, actually quite a bit because it’ll involve a ghost ;) This is a first for me. I’m a paranormal virgin. But I’m pretty darn excited. I’m just trying to figure out if my ghost can have a sense of humor or not.
I had to make a tough call today on a manuscript request that came back to me. I hope I’m making the right choice. I’d elaborate, but you never know who’s reading your blog.
Anyhow, back to a bit more editing and then bed. I’m still not adjusted to daylights savings yet. Ack. Soon, my friend. Soon.
Happy Birthday, Loribelle!
You’re doing so great Shelli. Isn’t it great to go do something with Emma and just “be”? I noticed last night that I just sat and watched my four year old sleeping. I was feeling all uptight about my R, but watching him I thought “It’s not important. He is.” I felt a lot better.
Can’t wait to read your sap fest. I love sappy.
Woohoo! Get that sappy Christmas story polished and sent! ;) What did you finally decided about the ms? N/m, I’ll ask when you get online tonight lol.
It’s tough decision time, I think, in the manuscript world. Good luck with yours. Here’s hoping it works out well. I have my fingers crossed that I’m making the right choice too.
{Whimpers.} I am so out of the loop. Or just way too nosy. I want to know what you’re talking about. LOL! (It’s okay–you don’t have to tell me.)
Sometimes it’s good to do something different, break the routine. It’s good therapy for the soul and the mind. *g*
hey, this is yesterday’s post. I want a new one. spill the beans, lady! ;)
Thanks everyone for the support! I blogged about it in today’s entry, because I feel SO good about my decision. And Viv had quite a bit to do with it! Thanks Viv!
