Hi there :)

So I thought I'd try to do some general life updating here.



I'm doing Get Your Words Out again this year, along with gosh...about a half dozen folks from fandom.

*mutters* Life has been INSANE of late...so I haven't written a real lot. I believe I pledgged 300K for the year.

For the first week, I completed 2,964 words.

2964 / 300000
(0.99%)


Yep, I have a ways to go LOL!

I expected the weekend would be a loss, due to techie issues, and it was, but we've streamlined a bunch of things, I have a keyboard condom and working keyboard (which feel pretty strange LOL), and things should go more smoothly now. I've been running a fever since seeing some very sick family over Christmas, but I'm starting to feel more normal and more creative even though the fever hasn't left yet.

We'll see how this week goes!

How is the first week of 2013 treating *you*?

*dusts pom pons off* You can do it! <3 It's been going okay for me... My hours are getting cut at work, but that will leave more time to read your 300,000 words.

We've all been sick here, too. I'm the last to fall and it hit me hard on Saturday. My SIL was the first one sick, he's going on three weeks now. Because he is a supervisor at work, he wasn't allowed to take any sick leave over the holidays. Now his ENTIRE department, is sick, even the night shift. Serves the big boss right.

Things have been busy...work wise, social wise. I hope you are feeling better soon. The news talked about the Flu and how people are handling. The very first I heard about it was on

*joins the cheering squad* W-O-R-D-S!

I hope you'r feeling better soon - being sick is no fun at all :( Things are doing all right here in PA. I'm mostly looking forward to the weekend when I get to do a little shopping. Also more than a little disappointed that one of my favorite Teen Wolf characters won't be returning to S3.

Have a good week! *hugs*

I'm sorry about the Teen Wolf situation :( Hugs! Stay healthy!

99% of your total is not bad for a first week. You'll get there once you find your rhythm.
Look after yourself.

You don't even know the word count you pledged?! O.o LOL!

But hey, at least you're writing, and that's the important thing! Me? Nothing for the last few days. :( Though the plunnies are a-hoppin', so come weekend, I should hopefully get creative. *crosses fingers*

Sending healing vibes and hopes of the feeling going away!

And I'm totes not giggling because I'm twelve. Keyboard condom. Hee. She said condom.

LOl I waffled for a while between 2, 250 and 3...and I THINK I finallty settled on 3!

So far so good, thank you. I hope you feel better very soon!

300k words???? Sweet Jesus, woman! That's ambitious as hell. Good luck! I'd be thrilled with half of that!

Thanks so much! Me too!

Thing is I have some pro projects that have been lingering far too long and MUST be finished. Life stresses are at an all time high but I'm going to try to write my way through.
