Lazy Day Saturday

I have to admit, I love lazy days.  You know the kind, the kind where you get out of bed and stay in your pajamas all day because you have absolutely nowhere to go for once.  Today is one of those days for me.  And how am I using my lazy day? Catching up on writing projects and household chores.  It's funny how such a busy day still feels like a lazy day compared to my usual schedule.  But sitting around doing nothing all day really isn't my style, so I don't really mind.  At least I get to stay home and get caught up. 

I've had a crazy busy summer so far, and my mom and I were recently talking about how fast time goes.  She goes to the Brickyard every year and always takes someone with her.  This year was my third time, and my mom and I were commenting on how we look forward to it for so long and then it's over.  We hardly have enough time to enjoy the experience.  But such is the case with everything. 

So with that being said, I'm going to enjoy the rest of my day and my weekend for that matter.  August is my least busiest month; every weekend in September is already booked.  Better enjoy the break while I can.  Have fun all!

I Hate Not Writing

September is not going to be a productive month for my writing.  I hate that fact.  Always on my mind is the story I'm working on and what changes I have/want to make, but my September is full of.....just life.  The month began with my family's annual three day reunion during Labor Day weekend.  Tomorrow I am going to St. Louis for three days (Joyce Meyer Women's Conference ~ going with my stepmom for the fifth year in a row).  Then at the end of the month I will be going to Chicago to celebrate with my husband ~ 10th year wedding anniversary! And of course in between those events I have household chores that never end, and I've been helping my husband with the mowing business.  And yes we've kept busy with that despite the dry weather.  Even though I had/will have tons of fun at these special events, I am so ready for some much needed time in front of my computer.  I can appreciate the fact that as writers we sometimes need to step back from our work so we can see it with fresh eyes, but I am not a fan of the pattern I am currently in.  Work on it one day, take a few days off.  Work on it another day, take a few days off.  You get the idea.  The way I see it, I should be either taking a break or not.  This on again, off again routine sucks.

Oh well.  At least I'm still having fun! And it is September ~ hello Autumn! (My favorite season)
