Gone with the Wind . . .

07.23.2007

Or maybe the rain . . .

I have started writing this post 3 times now. And every time, something happens to steal my focus.

Had a great title idea once. That’s gone.

Had a great opening paragraph once. Gone too.

Had an idea for the content of the rest of the post. And yeah, it’s gone as well.

Grrr . . .

And now my oldest son is sitting here using the family computer slurping his water (which is highly annoying) and it’s raining (which is really bothersome because I’d rather have sunshine) and my stomach is growling (which is just mildly uncomfortable).

So, I guess instead of writing here, I’m heading off to the kitchen. I’ll write again later when the inspiration returns.

Such is the writing life, huh?


The Hazards of Blog Writing – or One of Them, at Least

07.6.2007

So much to do, so little time – as they say!

I’m so sorry I’ve been gone so long! Normally I try to post here at least once or twice a week but I’ve been so busy lately, I nearly forgot about my blogs. I suppose that’s the hazards of life, eh?

Or maybe it’s the hazards of blog writing?

Well, I’m not sure. But what I do know is that I have lots to catch up on and lots to tell you about. I’ll be making some new posts beginning next week with all the new stuff including more on the tale of writing dilemmas (like holidays, end of the school year, cats, “fence jumpers” and more).

I hope those of you in the US had a great Independence Day!
