What a week, month, life...

I've been waiting and waiting to get called back to work for the end of quarter - and, as usual, they call a week later than I really needed them to. :-(  If I hadn't had to pay in to the tax man I'd have been fine, but...lots of oatmeal consumed until that next paycheck comes. Blah... And then, I have to work second shift next week before going back to third - the week my son is home. So double :-(  !!  I think I'm going to make a concentrated effort to find a "real job" - for a few months anyway, to build up my reserve again. Sucks to be down to the last nickel.

Have gotten some work done on my catch-up writing at least. I finished another overdue holiday story, and set up the framework for six others (holidays and QPs), plus I actually got a good start back on Covenant. I don't know why that's such a hassle to get through now. But I think, with the short stuff, I'm getting back the enthusiasm. Hopefully I'll be able to work on that tonight yet - maybe even finish the chapter!

Watching the weather - again! Second time this week we've had tornado watches out around the area. They can start out a hundred miles from here, and the next thing you know, we're in the middle of it. But at least I got a load of washing out and "almost" dried on the line today. Tomorrow is cleaning day - I used to clean houses part-time - four hours to clean a four-story house from top to bottom (including hand-washing the floors) so I figure I'll have this one spotless by the time I go to bed. Just in time for my son's arrival early Saturday morning. Hurray for that! :D
