when things are heavy. However, there is one thing that I do that betrays how fickle I am. I have gained about twenty pound in the last few months. I weighed myself yesterday morning and found out I am one pound short of 200 pounds. I am 5'8", but still that is more than I want to weigh. Plus I am... Sign in to see full entry.

I just was thinking about an editor to whom I submitted work. I thought it was rude that I hadn't even gotten an automatic response, when I just got an e-mail from the editor that second. It was a rejection which simply said, "It doesn't work for me." Great, so the question I have is what works for... Sign in to see full entry.

I let my husband see my website cpanel and he looked at it, read the instructions and didn't have a clue how to do it. He's a good programmer but this is a totally different language.

It is always a letdown coming home from vacation. Especially when I had a good one. For one day I got bored and really missed the computer. Yesterday was a brilliant sunny day and I started drawing with a set of crayons, things that I saw. I'm not an artist. So what I colored wasn't brilliant.... Sign in to see full entry.

Every month I drive four hours away to visit my mother and brother. This time my husband came along and drove because he likes to drive. I always complain about driving. I get sleepy and have to drink lots of coffee. If I don't pay attention, I can scare the passengers. But I found that I enjoy... Sign in to see full entry.

I have three things to do tonight and can only do two of them. Most important is to visit my friend who is in the hospital if I go right now. Very important is to hold a family meeting which is at 8:00 PM. Least important is to clean the floors. I could have done one of these three earlier, but its... Sign in to see full entry.
