I was up early this morning. Took care of a few business matters, showered and dressed, made sure our dogs and Tim’s had some outdoor time (both Tom and Tim being elsewhere for the morning/day), and got on the road to run errands around ten. I did that–not all of those successful–then got home around two. Ate lunch, moved my sanctuary table into the big office to start handling novel-related issues… Then I realized how drained I was by the heat. I thought I’d rest my eyes for a few minutes and get my energy back.
“A few minutes…” It’s now almost 6:30, and I’ve accomplished nothing on the writing/editing agenda. But I have water and grapes, the set-up still awaits, so I’ll try again.
ETA: Took me until 8/2, but NOW I have a fully revised draft of the fifth book and can officially move on.
