Kabu's post on mosquitoes reminded me of a visit to Mexico. It was my honeymoon. We stopped in Saltillo which is just 2 hours across the border. We stayed at his sister's house for a few days. There was a family gathering to meet those who were unable to be there for the wedding. The sunlight... Sign in to see full entry.

Friday my boss sent the schedule out for this week. (Nothing like being on top of things!) I was scheduled for about 12 hours today. I thought yippee! I will have about 16 hours this week. Then yesterday he sent out another schedule. This one had me for less than 10 hours this week. Sigh. You just... Sign in to see full entry.

A big thank you to Bigv. He always shares so much information with us. Give him a read if you haven't already. He let us know about a writer's competition. I might consider entering my novella Countdown to Failure in it. Today I get back to editing. I've been letting Good Ole Joe swirl about and I... Sign in to see full entry.

Yesterday as much as I needed to edit, I needed to take a day to chill. I suntanned for an hour. It was nice and peaceful. Well, that is until everyone decided to work on their yard. Then it was just too much noise to relax. I found a series of books written about what my major specialization was on... Sign in to see full entry.

I started the edit. It's hard to concentrate and figure out where to add to the story to enrich it, not just pad it. I want to add value. I have stacks of books that I have bought and borrowed since I arrived in Florida. Has it really been six months? I have two books left to finish from the library... Sign in to see full entry.

I hate Ebay. I won't purchase anything from there again. I didn't know they allowed sellers that can refuse to give refunds. Now I'm on hold in chat waiting over 10 minutes to try to get this resolved. That seller is getting the lowest rating possible. I tried to refund it yesterday and I couldn't....

I have my download of Final Draft 11 and have already started working on the edit and lengthening of Good Ole Joe. It is only 25 pages and needs to be 90! I checked on my tapestries and they are already on their way. They are waiting to go through customs and then I should have them soon. I am very... Sign in to see full entry.

My Paypal account is fixed. It appears I put my change of address in with them, yet the post office sent my first statement here back! I can now use it. Yippee! The first thing I did was order Final Draft 11. The second was to take advantage of Grammarly's discount of 45%. It cost roughly about 75... Sign in to see full entry.

I have two readers already for my novella. Thankful to those who volunteered and hope they enjoy it. It was a fun writing experience. My second son gave me a new cell apple cell phone for Mother's Day! How cool is that? I will use it for my business phone for notary/wedding, writing/editing and... Sign in to see full entry.
