It’s been a surprisingly busy day here at the Murphy-Lee-Sandness household. Ted staggered out of bed at 7am (on a *Saturday*) to finish making danishes for all of us to have for breakfast. And they were veeeeeeerrrrrrry good. Yum. *tuds of the yumminess* I staggered out of bed a while later to shower and write. Finished ch. 33 in a satisfactory manner, stopped, had danishes (did I mention the *yum tud*?) and sat back down to write some more. At 10, I stopped writing and went with Ted to deliver…

chipper!
Chipper! Which, at this hour, can only mean one thing: I got up and wrote this morning. I did not, sadly, get up at 6am and write 2000 words as my fond dreams would have me doing, but I did get up and write 750 words and put myself at v. slightly over 70K for the year. *ha cha cha cha cha cha!* There is no other news yet this morning.

We liked it. :) We came home, Ted made a *really* good steak dinner, and I sat down and slammed out another 950 words…
wear your heart on your sleeve
Okay, I got this from here, and I just thought it was a wonderful idea. Today a coworker of mine had a thought to send flowers to a random couple waiting in line at SF city hall. He called a florist and they agreed to do it. He told them to deliver to any couple — it didn’t matter who — standing in line to get married, with his blessing. The card will read simply “With love, from Minneapolis, Minnesota.” (or where ever you are from). Call your local florist,…
sleeping & writing
I went to bed last night and my mind starting going *churn churn churn* on this book and I tried to store the thoughts away for this morning, because they were good thoughts but I didn’t want to stay up all night writing them. I’m not sure if I stored them all well enough, but I managed to hang on to some of them, and consequently got 1500 words written this morning and although I still feel that I’ve got a whole lot of work to do on this book,…
