The lack of posting this week is mainly because the energy it takes to type exceeds the amount of energy I have stored up for personal use. Our Pink event was last night and we’re in the middle of scrounging together a November issue, so between that and other chaos this week (negotiating our first offer on the house), I am physically and emotionally spent. At some point this weekend, I must send the first two sections of the book to a local printer (a little more than 200 pages) so we can start proofing with real pen and paper. Editing on the computer screen isn’t enough for me.
While I’ve been detained, Chuck and the boys have gotten in some good “guy time,” which means lots of wrestling, video game playing and making bodily noises. After all, there are some things a mother just can’t do. I’m mainly referring to video games.
After the busy-ness of the week, I’m looking forward to downtime. Flag football is tomorrow, along with the Tennessee-Georgia game, and then it’s back to the grind for me – the daily rigmarole of wrangling boys, keeping the house uber-clean for showings, and running at night to keep the stress at bay.
