	Morning. I'm a tad out of it at the moment... I was up till 1:30 last night WRITING... It was quiet, the guys were in bed (instead of downstairs driving me crazy!) and I had a scene bugging me so I wrote it up after HK and MasterChef. I also did a full edit on the scene that took me an EIGHT full hours to write up yesterday and it's a good thing I did, there was a TON of errors in it... That's why I prefer to be alone to write (or be LEFT ALONE!), cause the way the guys were acting yesterday distracted me so badly I wanted to strangle the pair of them!! GRRRRRRRRRRR...... I'm here on and off depending on what's happening today... IF I can get some writing time in today, I'll be deep into that again. I have ideas for a few things so I'll be bouncing those around again today. Time to pack Son's book bag and finish getting caught up!!

	We creative types have to create in order to feel ALIVE... That's why I write. Without my writing, I would not be living, only existing. ~Me~ Music is essential to life. ~Me~ I'm sunny natured with a side of EVIL...

	Okay, I made a mistake about something... It took me over 8 hours to write up HALF a scene yesterday... NOT HAPPY about that!! Anyway, Word is open to NR/#7, second half, I'm going to be editing for a bit and if Hubby leaves me alone, I may try writing up another scene that's forming in the brain... That's a HUGE "IF" though the way things have been the last day or so!!! Here but idle.

	I'm going idle for a bit. Hubby is gone to run errands so I'm going to take advantage of the peace and quiet while I have it!! My creativity LOVES the sound of only a fan running and the cats' paws on the floor!!!

	Morning! I hope to get the table skirt done and put on today. Tomorrow I'll start painting the wardrobe and if I get some good drying time, I could be putting it together on Thursday but if the paint is still tacky on Thursday, I'll start the assembly on Friday. Right now, I'm gonna start "assembling" some tea!

	Never mind... The scene wasn't entirely in "focus", I have less than an hour to work before going to the bus stop and Hubby is home. I'll mull over that scene and see what I can do with it tomorrow or after MasterChef is over tonight. untangling her eyes!

	Thank the gods for MEMORY STICKS, cause lately, I'd be having a real problem backing things up on a CD........

	Backup of NR/#7 on Memory Stick completed at 3:05 p.m. Atlantic Time. The entire file folder that holds EVERYTHING for it on my hard drive is over 3.88 MB. It's getting HUGE!

	I don't even want to THINK about how big my three books are! And 3 is only finished in first draft. It "could" end up being longer.....

	Yeah, and then you don't have Book 4 added to that YET!! This is the longest story I've worked on so far... RH's "first draft" was done in 2000 but it only had 40,000 words when I wrapped that up, hence the idea to do a rewrite on it to expand it and make it more logical for today... A lot of stuff has changed in the last 12 years after all!! LOL Untitled #6 has less than half of what NR/#7 has at the moment and that's basically turning into a "dead" manuscript at the rate it's going. I lost the story for it a couple of years ago and if I get it back, fine... If I don't, that's okay too.

	I'm expecting Book 4 to be long. I "hope" it doesn't turn into Book 4 AND Book 5 but I won't know until I get into it and see how complex the story turns out to be. Some characters need to be killed off once and for all, the Heroine's older daughter will undergo a transformation and she and her sister will handfast with their lover (yes, they are a triad). There will be births, deaths, heartbreak and, I hope, an eventual happy ending but I don't know about that yet although the scales seem to be tipping that way....

	I've had problems getting only ONE book written up, I can't imagine writing up an entire series on my own!! I'm going to stick to single stories, everyone else can do series if they want!! LOL It's more brain power than I have right now!!

	I've been reading through the two documents I have written up for the second half of NR/#7 and I'm thinking that with a few careful edits/additions to the first part of the second file, I could probably splice them together today, that way I'm only working on ONE file for it at the moment....

	I finally have ALL the fasteners sewn onto the table skirt. NOW to get the tack hammer and upholstery tacks and see if this idea is going to actually work...

	It's official... Those two files are now ONE file... All it took to edit them to fit together was a few quick sentences!!

	Me too!!! I have to finish bridging some gaps and some splicing in to the main manuscript file before this part goes in. I have two or three files to splice into the first part of it, including the HUGE MCEWCA file (which wraps up the first half of the story!) and a couple of smaller files before I can even think about slapping this file into the Main manuscript file at the moment! I may wind up doing some "refits" on where I left off in Chapter 14, where I left off there isn't working. I'm probably going to do a rewrite on the last scene I started there and go from there. I have to think about what to actually show in that part... So much is happening at that point of the story it's going to be hard what is considered "ultra important" and what is considered more minor. UGH. I may even cull back on the latter part of Chapter 13 down a bit, it's dragging a little. UGH, brain is mooshy but I'm still thinking a nice reread is in order!!!!

	The War Queen sleeps on my pillow every night and every morning I have to clean her shed fur off of my face and out of my ears and nose. ICK! Plan A: Fail. Now working on Plan B which requires either a 48 inches long 1/2 inch diameter dowel rod or a cafe rod of the same length, neither of which I have. What I do have is a lapful of Warrior Princess.....

	EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!! That's the one downside of having furballs, FUR EVERYWHERE!!! Noelle likes to sleep up between my and Hubby's pillows if we allow her in the bedroom. Not great considering her fur is about 2-3 inches long and VERY thick and fluffy!! GAG I didn't nickname that kitty "Hairball" for nothing.. I gotta start supper, and I'm considering letting Son have the computer soon... I'm weaving in my chair......

	I'm a little more awake at the moment, I'm making supper. Standing over a stove kinda does that to a person.....

	Yeah it does. And if you don't wake up, you're likely to get yourself a nasty burn.
