Behind

You’d think that, what with a week vacation planned, getting ready for said vacation, and having the kids home from school, I would have maybe planned ahead.

That didn’t happen.

So, I’m a bit behind on my FAD challenge.  How much is a bit?  About nine thousand words (yes, 9,000) as I write this.

Now, not all of this is from my vacation days.  I was behind by about 5,000 by the time we headed into our vacation.  Part of the problem there was (I think) that I didn’t plan for this ahead of time.  Not that I didn’t have the time, but it wasn’t at the front of my thoughts… and I’d forget.

Anyone else far behind?  Strategies for catching up?  Did better planning?

 

No One Drove Me to Distraction…

I was already there.

Focus on Juggling

Do you have a few projects you’re working on? Maybe a novel, your blog, and sewing a Halloween costume?

I do.

Okay, you got me. It’s way more than that, but I’m sure you are doing just as many things.

We all have so many balls up in the air, as the analogy goes. Cooking, cleaning, shopping, doctor’s appointments, and then all the stuff we’d much rather be doing.

Doldrums

I know, I know.  I’m supposed to post M/W/F in the morning (Eastern).  At least that’s my habit and what I said I’m going to do.  Yet, now that school’s back in session (today was day #2), I’m behind.

I was on time when I had kids underfoot.  WTF?
