The Boys
February 1, 2010
I have gotten virtually nothing done today. I think I edited half a page. I've gotten a couple other minor things done, but nothing on my list. This has got to stop. Time to take control and get some work done.
Or not.
I need to get focused on some of the writing again. I want to get Silky 3 done and it is moving along very well. I also need to start doing a few things for Vision.
I don't want to work. I just don't want to.
Shadows and Flowers
February 2, 2010
One of those days where I got things done, but not nearly enough. I don't know where the time went. And I just now thought of something I really need to do yet tonight, too.
It's dropped down to 1f tonight. Snow tomorrow... what a shock. Snow and rain the next day. Can't say I'm much shocked about that, either. Or the snow forecasted for the day after.
I am just going to get the last of this work done and crawl off to bed. Maybe it will be spring when I look outside again?
No, didn't think so....
Winter
February 3, 2010
Apparently, we have another storm coming in tomorrow and going through Friday afternoon. What a long winter this is! Another five inches or so of snow on the way, and since most of the snow is still knee to hip deep, that's just more than we need.
I haven't felt well today, so I'm going to get this done and go to bed and read for a few hours. And ignore the fact that I'm going to be out scooping again soon.
On the other hand, at least it's warmer. It's almost up to the freezing point.
Ick.
Prelim work on new Silky 3 Cover

The weather today has been odd, but not terrible. Rain, snow, ice -- but none of it enough to make real problems. So I'm happy so far.
I was in a bad mood most of the day, though, and that didn't help. It has finally dropped below freezing. I'm sure that means trouble.
I can't say that I'm really getting much done tonight. I have the newsletter virtually finished. That's helpful. I got some writing done, but I still hope to do more tonight.
I need to get focused on some stuff. That's my hope -- if not tonight, then tomorrow.
But things are looking good. I'm always in a better mood when I'm close to done with the newsletter!

I have no Internet. This is miserable. No connection to anyone except for a couple minutes on the phone with Russ. I am really annoyed at this point. And it's snowing and cold.
I have gotten quite a bit of writing done, so that's all right. But I'm even getting tired of that, which is pretty odd for me. Yes, some of it is attitude, but that means I need to stop working on it for a bit, or else that 'attitude' is going to show through in the work.
So, I'll write this and then go find something else to do for a while. I've been working on Carrara pictures, which is nice. I might try my hand at a different program for a while.
They better have this stuff fixed tomorrow!

I finally have Internet again. For awhile there, it looked as though I wasn't going to have it until Tuesday. Russ and I both freaked at that one. I have work to do! I have just gotten the county stuff done and posted. There are a few more of those things floating around that must be done right now, but it could have been far worse.
Anyway, going to get this posted and get on to other things!

Zaphod gave me a scare today by getting sick and then falling over. He seems to be okay and he's certainly been playing and eating fine. But still, it scared the hell out of me, and I've hardly been able to get anything else done all day.
And it's snowing. It's been snowing all day and it's starting to pile up out there again.
I thought I'd be seeing grass in March. I kind of suspect it's going to be LATE March. Either that, or we are going to have a quick melt and with this much snow.... well, just not something to look forward to.
I have to get some work done now.

Long day and I did get some stuff done, but it's cold again and that's affecting my ability to concentrate. I don't do well in cold. And this has been a long, cold winter.
I am getting a lot of reading done, though. So it's not all bad.
Silky 3 is giving me trouble, though. I'm not sure how I'm going to get it sorted out. The story just isn't flowing the way I want it to.
So... that's it for the night. It's already late and I need to read a bit before I go to sleep!
