The Waiting Game

After the meltdown

It was hell, I tell ya. So much of my life has been an emotional roller coaster - probably for about the last year or so. I get life has it's ups and downs, and I tend to hit the peak, and end up at the very bottom way too often. It's a bit scary, and even torture. But after a lack of sleep, a lot of tears, convo with the hubby, and some words of wisdom and well wishes from a good friend, I managed to find some clarity. Even resigned myself to do a few things I've neglected doing. Do you believe it? I had to look into the mirror, look deep inside myself to figure a few things out, some hard truths, which scared the crap out of me, but now, I feel ok. Not happy, and flying high, but I feel as if I am taking a new step forward, hopefully in the right direction. One can always hope, right?

Fleshed out the cast of characters for my new book. Sunday will be here before I know it. Now all I need is a working title. I've got nada. I even have a bad guy - still can't decide if I want to use him or not, but he's there, waiting. I figure once the story starts, my muse will either pull me in that direction, or not. If not, he could always show up in another book.

Bought this really great calendar for my desk. I figured I needed a good laugh every morning, help to keep me smiling, and give me a bit of perspective. Have you heard of Maxine? Well if not, you are in for a treat. Today Maxine says...

Why can't there be a no call list for relatives? Amen!

Well, I have some things to do, so I'm outta here for now.
