	I got the hardware I ordered for the wardrobe today. It is so pretty. I'll see if I can find a picture of it to post.

	I'm heading out now, we'll be leaving pretty much as soon as Son gets off of the bus. Not sure if I'll be back any more today or not, it all depends on when we get back, how I'm feeling and if Son will get any Rocket Bowl time this evening or not (he only gets that on his AWESOME school days). Have a great day everyone... I will be back, either later this evening or the regular time in the morning for a bit before I dive into my all day writing session! waves

	BOO!! I decided to come back for a couple of hours before Son had his rocket bowl time. He's getting the computer sometime between 7:30 and 8 so I'm here until about then. Everything went great and I'm starting to get ready for tomorrow's LONG writing session. I also found out there is only TWELVE full days left of school before the last day, which is on the 29th and only 2 hours or so, it's basically a day for the students to get their report cards and wish everyone a happy summer. That means I have only TWO FULL DAYS to write before summer vacation starts... Unless Hubby decides to take off for the day sometime... GEARS TURNING AS SHE PLOTS!! Anyway, time to get caught up again and open #7 so I can plot on what to work on tomorrow or jot down some ideas.

	I haven't checked but school has been starting the second or third week of August for the last several years.

	It's always started in September here as long as I can remember, it was like that when I was attending school too. I guess we're just weird up here in Canada with some things! LOL

	We used to start in September too but the state legislature decided that the school year had to run 180 days and since schools have traditionally let out around the last weekend in May, they have to start the school year earlier or do without breaks. Post 24,924

	I've been wresting with the wire for the makeup table lights. It's heavy and wants to whip around while I'm trying to get the plugs on. No success yet, sad to say but I WILL bully this wire into place eventually! I was able to grab a pic of the wardrobe door handles I got. They have a good solid feel to them and they are gonna look great.

	Dinner is over, Skywise is home and tomorrow is gonna be a busy day so I'm gonna head out while I'm still coherent. Everyone sleep well and be safe.

	OOOOH! Love the handles Penth! I actually think the difference between the school year in Canada compared to the US is partially due to old (still in force) regulations and our farming seasons. Prime gardening season here is shorter. It is also legal here for children to be able to miss school without fear of penalty to work the harvest on the farm. Not sure how many people besides farmers are aware of that.

	Morning! RT, I didn't know that at all, I always thought my province started off so late was due to the fact that we tend to get more hurricanes in August and September than we do in any other month. Huh. You learn something new everyday I guess! LOL Cool that it's still in effect even though most of the time, children don't help out a lot with things like that nowadays out here at least. Penth, those handles are GORGEOUS!! I love them!! It's another writing day for me, my second to last of the school year. I'm getting "visions" of what will lie ahead in various spots of the second half of the story, including one HUGE event that will set off an even bigger chain of events than even the reader will realize at first! Yeah, that's going to be interesting and fun to write up! LOL I'm here for a couple of hours before I dive into the writing. I'll be doing a reread on things before I actually settle into "Writing Mode" but that will be offline so I don't get distracted. Time to finish getting caught up and get things shoved into Son's bookbag.

	I'm starting to get the urge to write, so I'm heading out for a few hours. I'll be back after Son gets home from school. See y'all on the other side and have a great Friday everyone!

	Afternoon. We back from town and I'm ready to fold. Maybe it is the energy in town but I'm extremely jumpy right now. I just want to chill for a while and get settled.

	I'm back too... Son's bus was early and I didn't hear from the school about it until AFTER the bus got out to the stop and the driver HONKED until I ran out there!!! I'm NOT out of "writing mode" yet, I need a bit to make the transition out of it... I'm still wanting to continue where I left off, I was almost ready to wrap up a scene and start another one when the darn bus honked its horn!!! YEESH!!!

	Thanks. Give Miss Furbaby some love for me please, she's a little darling! I am now trying to do a full reread on the stuff I wrote up last night and this morning (editing too!)... I'll finish it IF my son will give me a half hour of peace and quiet AWAY from the computer area!!!

	I'm trying to get caught up on all my internet reading. It's been a pretty quiet week then BOOM there is interesting stuff everywhere.

	I suppose I should update the blog.......... And my "writing clubs" in FB about my progress today. I feel like the walking dead but I STILL want to write... muttering something under her breath about the story not leaving her alone!!

	I hear you, VE. I've ate, slept, played, shopped, toured museums and "had sex" with Keyholder's Castle for most of the last six years and I'm not done yet....

	If anyone would understand, it's a fellow writer like you Penth! Untitled #7, or it's NEW CODE NAME, "NR", has only been really haunting me since last year (despite the original idea being conceived in 2010) but it's literally starting to take over a good chunk of my life. Yesterday when we were at the doctor's office, I got an idea and started typing it into the memos part of my phone, which prompted a LOT of dirty looks from my husband.... Until I told him I had an idea pop into my head, then he shut up and distracted Son so I could finish it! (Son was trying to look at the phone screen and would have read it out loud... ARGH!) I'm just glad I remember to take that thing with me so I can do things like that!! LOL I lay in bed at night and bounce around ideas, I do it while I'm watching TV (keeping the cell beside me!), I do it while I'm driving (NOT GOOD most of the time!), while I'm washing dishes or even out at the bus stop in the mornings while trying to pay attention to what the neighbor's daughter is saying! Even now, I have a picture of a scene starting to focus in the brain but with Son around, NOT a good idea to start writing it up, it's not exactly PG rated... ... And although it's not exactly a "major" scene, it's not exactly a minor one either... Hehehehehe........

	Any scene that moves the story forward or contributes to character development is a major scene! I am very frustrated at the moment. I have the wire for the makeup table lights wired into the plug but I can NOT get the plug to close. I may say something obscene and get a different kind of plug tomorrow. I got these at Walmart, they are made as a single piece that folds up and I have a feeling that everything has to be obscenely precise for the "dratted" thing to close! I have given up for the moment, I've been literally wrestling with the thing for the last few hours and frankly, my hands hurt.

	That's true Penth! You know what scene I'm talking about and... Well, not saying more about it cause it's NOT fit for a PG board! LOL Does this cover it: BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! I'd be saying a few choice words myself... And keep in mind my father was a former fisherman and my siblings and I had quite the education with "bad words"... sheepish grin Thankfully with a widdle bunny here, I've learned to keep things a LOT cleaner...
