Made blueberry jam this morning. I think I have nearly enough blueberry juice to make blueberry jelly, too. That’ll be pretty. Also wrote two chapters on “Ill Met by Moonlight”. Gonna go write some more when I’m done with lunch. Lucy refused to help me write today. She lurked around my feet, but wouldn’t get in my lap. Little bitch. :) Everyone *else* likes my writing nook setup, but she doesn’t, ’cause she can’t sit on my shins anymore while I write. :) *laugh* Email this morning from the guy…
figurines, looking for a good home
Ok, I’m trying to cull figurines. I have a lot of X-Men figurines and a few random other things. I don’t need most of them, but I can’t bring myself to throw them away. Would anyone be interested in any of the following, or to tell me where I might advertise them in such a fashion as they might actually be purchased? (None of them seem to be moving on eBay, so my little heart is not full of hope.) Ultimate Magneto bust Ultimate Storm bust Ultimate Cyclops bust Ultimate…
efficient morning
Rather than dink around until ten being vaguely grumpy that I hadn’t yet talked myself into writing, I thought I’d just get a bunch of other shit done before ten and then do my writing. So, thus far, I’ve made bread, started laundry, made jelly (oh wow does it smell good, too), and had breakfast. I’m going to go clean the kitchen and take strawberries out for tomorrow’s jam. Then I’ll write. Damn, answering email eats up time. *posts and scurries* ETA: argh. I found another bag of blackberries, which…
as it turns out…
As it turns out, *after* you have freshly painted the cupboards white is not the most clever time to make a very hot sticky bubbly substance which stains at the drop of a hat and absolutely cannot stop being stirred during its creation process to clean up after. And man. I was just having a clumsy as hell day, too. Poured raspberry juice all over the counter, then as I was cleaning up dripped more on the cupboards. The formerly freshly white cupboards, which now need touch-ups. Sigh. Then when…
brr!
Ok, the down side to this weight loss thing is that it’s 73 degrees in my house and I’m COLD. For pity’s sake. o.O Halfway through chapter four of “Ill Met by Moonlight”. I’m enjoying my main character enormously, though she’s now toned down some of her personality quirks in favor of trying to get things done. If I’m lucky I’ll have enough words left over to add a bit more of her quirks back in, but 10K isn’t very much. :) Need to get chapter four done today. It’d…
