Don't know what the hell got into me today but I have been going a mile a minute on everything!

First - 4 loads of laundry. No, don't ask how it got to be that large (other than I've been putting it off hoping for good weather on the days I have off - which hasn't really happened). Finally broke down and took it to the laundromat for the washing, then ran it all through 2 cycles of dryer before bringing it back and hanging it all up (wanted it semi-dry as there was a chance of rain/thunderstorms today).

Second - cleaned up as much of the broken tree branches as I safely could and ended up hauling a full pickup load out to the dump. I was so tempted to saw off some more, but didn't dare. Have to call that guy to come finish it up - brother keeps saying he'll take care of it but he keeps 'forgetting'. :(

Third - revised 3 chapters of Covenant to fit with the new information I got on the plane crash (mechanics of it). So will have those to repost when Chapter 73 is done - which, incidentally, should be ready for my betas by the weekend (if they still want to do it, that is - such busy people nowadays! ;) )

Fourth - got my application and resume sent off for a librarian position in a nearby town. Between the pay increase, less hours, and shorter distance, I figure I'll come out about even with what I net now, and it wouldn't be nearly the hassle and physically draining work. So keep your fingers crossed.

Also did a couple loads of dishes and actually put them away instead of just using them out the DW. Yeah, we definitely live a bit Bohemian around here...

And now, having brought in the laundry, folded it and put it away, I'm going to fix some supper, have a nice long shower, and maybe take a short nap before going to The Pit of Hell work.

I have a feeling I'm going to sleep all day tomorrow...

I'm tired just reading that.

Yay, more covenent! I've been waiting in suspense for that crash! :D

Some of my cups and plates never see the inside of the cupboard, just do the round of used, washed, draining board, used... etc.

Good luck with the job application. Librarian! How cool.

Yeah, I really hope I get that job. It would working the YA area mainly - and I like working with kids and young people. Plus, y'know - BOOKS! lol

before going to The Pit of Hell work.


God, that's how I feel about my place of work too, so I feel your pain.

Of course I'll read through Covenant... actually, at the weekend, it might give me something to do as my brain will be too fried to actually write/edit but I can manage reading/critiquing. (I've got the Pit Of Hell this weekend :-( )

Oh and working in a library I imagine will be great. (fingers crossed you get it) I applied once but never got anywhere... but then we have to go through the council, and getting a job in the council is bloody hard. (Though I did worry I would be too loud to actually work in a library - now I would love it even more, now I've found writing).
