Susan in TN Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Go to bed already! I was walking out the door from rehearsal at 9:53! Excited about that! No traffic on the way home! The director of the music for the musical is very good and clear in his instructions. Tin foil is important to know about because hats. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) Good morning! Happy Sportsball Victory! We have morning lessons, though I think ds14 only has cello practice and his research paper to work on. I need to do some goat banishing, then leave at noon for a matinee/dress rehearsal. Apparently a bunch of homeschoolers will be in the audience for that. It is super foggy out this morning - I can barely see the house across the street! Coffee!

Critterfixer Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Morning. I hate mornings. I start out sick at my stomach and fearful of even getting out of bed in case it bites me. But I'm up, and have another long day of intensive editing planned. And I only misspelled it once typing it. After another cup of tea, maybe the neurons will fire a little faster. See you this evening. 100 pages or bust today. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I do enjoy browsing through the archives from time to time. We have a lot of poetry concerning insomnia and coffee. Krissi excells in pie and hot weather poetry. Jean has a good selection of camp-themed works. Remember AMJ's bacon operetta? Bacon Opera, by AMJ (5/23/17) Loving mother: Oh, NO! I dropped the bacon! Chorus: Oh, NO! She dropped the bacon! Everyone: Oh, Wo-oe! Can the bacon be sa-a-a-aved? Boys and observers in turn: Quickly pick it up now let us get a look at it Surely it isn't too bad there's just a little bit of rocks and dirt and other stuff-- Conscientious mother: NO! It will make us SICK! All together now: Woe! Woe! We have no bacon! 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Good Morning!!! No COFFEE!!!!~D yet. I’m ITTing from bed. I’m not sick or anything, I just didn’t want to get up yet. Horrible windstorm last night (it is still very windy ) and it kept us up for hours. SomethIng out there is banging around. I have no idea what it is. DD1 works in the nursery for the Mom’s group this morning and the kids all have testing this afternoon, so I think we will take it easy this morning. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maize Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) It's been a busy day already--we had family devotional, got Dh off to work, got everybody dressed and fed and piled into the car to drop dd11 off at her school, dd15 off at her religious studies class, ds6 off at his school, and ds13 off at his twice a week program. We're home now but leaving soon to take dd4 and ds8 to gymnastics. Maybe I should sign ds1 up for something to round out our Tuesdays 😛 Edited April 9, 2019 by maize 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they should make their own. Well, just got back from the clinic. Apparently, I'm supposed to be going every 6 months in order to get my bp meds refilled. I haven't been in a year. Bp was 157/117. But, I'm not dead yet. Thankfully. We're listening to a Chinese cartoon right now. Well, Gymnast is listening. I'm ITTing.

Junie Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Good Morning! Happy Wednesday! I had a difficult time getting to sleep last night. I ended up popping in a movie to try to get myself sleepy enough to get to sleep. I got about a third of the way through The Hunt for Red October (in French) and crashed.

I don't remember my list from yesterday, but I think today will only consist of work, school, workout, housework, make grocery order. I won't need to cook tonight, either. Ds32 moved April 1 and I think I have cooked once, and that was only a pack of pork tenderloin. Oh! I did cook the bacon for broccoli salad and dh made the rest of the bacon breakfast for supper by cooking sausage and eggs. I still need to get to the DMV and get dd an id.

Critterfixer Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Good morning. I've got a full day coming up: I want to power through another 100 pages of manuscript and find "the place" to add one little touch of scene that my agent wants. Then I have a synopsis to finish and send out to some kind people who have offered to read it. Plus, I stepped outside and two poems started filtering in, line by line, so I had to rush and open documents for them and start putting words down before they fly off like blue butterflies. Additionally, two more alpha readers have the first book of the new series I am writing. I'm not anxious--it's a first draft, and all of them need tons of work. But it's more I need to print this week for one reader. Best write that down so I don't forget it. I have a river trip planned for Friday. I've got a document to write that I haven't even got more than a theme to build around, and I need all the inspiration I can get. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
