We've been home for a while and I've been catching up. No tea yet but I'll be taking care of that directly.

Smiley I'm back. I'm revising something and polishing it but I'm here.

Splice and Chapter 18 is done. Now I have to revise what I pasted in, so it fits with everything else.... Smiley

I'm not finding anything useful in classical mythology so I'm gonna have to make up what I need from scratch.

Ugh, MORE work. Sad

I'm still working too. The initial revisions are done but I want to do another look-through on everything to be safe. I haven't done the first full edit/reread of EVERYTHING I wrote up or spliced in today together so I'm going to sneak that in now.

Go ye forth and sneak!

I know what these particular spirits do, I just need a name for them.

You'll figure it out Penth. Cheesy

I'm now making sure everything lines up properly and how the "cat comes out of the bag" is a bit funnier.....

The sun is out, I can hear the lawnmower running, and the scent of freshly mowed grass is coming in the kitchen window.... The grass is FINALLY dry enough to get part of it done!

Hey Smiley  Having a quick coffee break while cupcakes are baking!  Sooo excited for birthday cupcakes!  Going to make butterscotch dreamwhip frosting.  I'm gonna be a bad diabetic tonight Cheesy

It's been raining off and on since friday here, still raining today.  The grass has gone from flat to a foot in places and my dandylions are huge.  Too wet to cut though.  I might try my hand at dandylion wine, or maybe jelly, as there's lots and they're very clean from the rain. 

I wouldn't be baking this late but I went to read and fell asleep...  so much for being a party girl eh?  LOLS!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RT!!!!  Smiley

Ooh, cupcakes! Hubby is picking up a cake for our son for his birthday so I don't have to bake. LOL

We finally got some dry weather after over a week of clouds and rain. It's nice to see the sun again and it's nice to have the windows open without freezing our toes off. It's been hovering around 10C or so (50F) and we're finally back up in the high teens/low 20s (65 to 70F) and I LOVE IT!! Cheesy

However, so are the @#$%^&*( bugs........... Roll Eyes

Smiley Thanks Smiley  The bakery that I loved in town here closed several years ago.  Unfortunately everything else on offer here seems so terribly sweet, you can't really enjoy it.  Unfortunately no one wants to take on the cost of starting a old fashioned bakery here.  Your little man is growing up so fast!  Some year soon, he'll want to bake his own cake for his birthday!  Those were fun years I tell yah!


Our mosquitos have made a nice come back Sad  but they are finally getting rid of the dirt and gravel.  It's been so dirty here because of all the extra grit used over the long winter.  Anyways I have to figure out what I want for supper, if we're making it or getting take out.  I'm not in the mood for TO but I don't want to cook either... dilema!

Happy B-day, RT. I know what you mean about cakes. I have to bake my own birthday cake too as the bakery in town closed about 20 years ago and our favorite bakery in the city closed at about the same time so if we want decent cake, I have to bake it! What the local Wal-Mart sells isn't fit to feed to pigs.

Our Walmart has basically a tiny corner for the "grocery" section and doesn't even have a bakery. It's maybe 7 or 8 half aisles, TOPS. We generally get our cakes from the Atlantic Superstore or Sobeys. They are VERY sweet but I find if you scrape off about 80% of the icing, they're edible. We do have one or two old fashioned bakeries around here, one is on Victoria Road, just up the hill from one of the local bars, and their stuff is good. Expensive but good. Another spot is one of the farm markets out on the way to Greenfield but they're even more expensive. We only go out there for brown bread once in a VERY long time as a treat, but it's worth the trip! LOL

Smiley Thanks Penth!  I'm not sure that our Walmart does cakes even though it is a "super center" now.  We have Sobey's here, like VE, but the one with a decent bakery was closed so they could open a liquor outlet inside it instead  Huh.  We also have Safeway, Superstore and Dairy Queen but they're all just too sweet for this diabetic I don't wanna end up in a comma Smiley

I think I need to go pass out soon I am sooo tired.  I will catch y'all later!

No, diabetic coma is definitely bad.

Well, Skywise is home and I'm beat. I did manage to add some new material to Book 4. It will probably need some punching up. It's a "magickal" combat and it seems a bit "static" but I'm getting the basics down and I can add choreography later. I may have to get out my Hero System game books and work it out that way. It's been a while and I'm a little rusty. But right now, I'm ready to fold like a futon so I'm outta here.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

I have Word open to the Main Manuscript file of Book 2 and I'm going to see about getting the detailed revisions/editing done this morning while Hubby is watching TV and my son is in school. It's relatively quiet here so hopefully I can get it done without too many interruptions! Here but quiet. Cheesy

Here but IDLE. Cheesy
