Missing In Action again..

Oh my goodness!

Well where have I been? Gaining weight that’s for sure! When I don’t post to myself I gain! Thank Goodness it’s not the whole amount, still it’s like slipping down a steep hill and realizing you’re starting at the bottom again!

The time I’ve been gone I’ve finished my poetry book and then started sending it out to publishers and contests etc. I’m back working on the books. The pounding and hammering and nailing and drilling on my apt building stopped but not before boarding my windows and tearing down the railings of the deck! They took out my satellite Dish and so things were pretty hot around here. The past month has been absolutely out of sorts. Now that it’s October I might be able to breathe, especially since I’m not dealing with manuscript deadlines anymore.

Everything’s been interrupted, sleep, eating, work outs, get-togethers. I think I have an unhealthy attitude when I’m trying to hit a deadline, I just don’t care about anything! For two days I swear I sat in the same spot trying to edit and re-edit the manuscript. Of course a week later I found more areas to improve. It’s unnerving! Luckily my neighbor and his dog took my two pups for me when I was attached to the computer for days on end. When I finally got everything sent out, I just felt like I could sleep for days! I’d just sit in the quiet and stared out at the trees (That was after I kicked the boards off my windows in defiance!) I’d rather have a deck without railings and see the sky then stay “safely” boarded up like a convict in solitary confinement! Agh! I can’t move out of this place soon enough!

Here’s my latest numbers. Sunday is another day!
