Morning. It's clear, sunny and COLD this morning although "cold" is relative compared to what it will be in another month or so.

Spirit's birthday is Saturday and so is the recycling day for electronics at the county fairgrounds so I gotta get organized or I'm not going to be ready for either one!

Sorry, VE. I just checked the radar and the meterological foolishness that went through here yesterday is coming up on St. John as I type. You're gonna get wetter, I'm afraid.

I know. I checked earlier and it's NOT going to be a great day here. It's raining like crazy, high winds and other crap. JOY OH BLISS.

So glad Hubby is home that way if the power does go out, he can set up the TV/satellite on the converter with the old car battery so Son has TV at least. I have a Star Wars novel to keep me busy if the power goes out... Heh. Cheesy

That's something, I guess. That's why I refer to my books as Book 1, 2, 3, or 4 until I publish them. For one thing, while I usually pick the title early on, I want the option to change it if I want or need to. The other thing is that keeping it a secret or semi-secret is FUN!

I know what Book 4's title is, and even the names of other ones you have planned.... Tongue

I don't mind sharing it with a select group of people, those who know, know I trust them. This girl thought it was one of my posts for writing buddies only and slipped up. Oh well, at least I turned it into something that will make the other provincial one go berserk... I was looking for a way to drive that one nuts, and that works perfectly. LOL

What's going to drive the ultra local one nuts is if she sees the posts here about it being announced on Facebook and she can't see them... Which is only the icing on the cake in my mind! Heh.  Smiley

I think I heard a few molars cracking from about an hour away from here... Hehehehehehehehe.....  Smiley

Oh yeah, considering most dental procedures are NOT covered under NS Health! Cheesy

And cracked molars can be very painful unless the root is already dead as it was in my case.

I know they can be. I had a cracked molar a few years ago and the root was still ALIVE. I had to have it pulled because it was abscessing and that made it a LOT worse. I knew it was like that because not even something like numbing gel was helping. When the doc put the Novocaine in for extraction, that was the most relief I had from the stupid thing in DAYS. It's not visible unless I pull back the side of my mouth, thank the stars. It was one of the ones way in the back and you can't see it even with a huge smile on the face. Tongue

I'm finally warm.

Seems someone turned the furnace off and neglected to turn it back on. Here I thought I was shivering because of nerves.....

Skywise may be late tonight. The power is still out in Kokomo, Indiana and they're trying to figure out what to do with the mail. It will eventually end up in Indianapolis and they're trying to decide what to do with it once it gets there. MUCH "deciding" and "figuring" to do and since he's supervising tonight, he'll be in on the "deciding", "figuring", and "doing." There's also the fact that some "addresses" are flattened piles of rubble which will make delivery impossible for a while and provisions for holding the mail, keeping it safe and making sure it is released to the right people have to be made. *sigh* And people think mail delivery is simple....

I'm back because I'm not sleepy, and I'm bored....

That is awful that things are like that, Penth. Undecided Gods, what a mess that storm was... One of my friends in MI said there were tornadoes not far from her house and another area not far from hers was really hit hard.

Then people wonder why I say I'd rather face a category 3 hurricane... *SIGH*

I just did something that may make the ultra local stalker blow her stack. It's in FB set to friends only and she CAN see this, but there are some blurred out things in the photo I shared. That's the stuff I do NOT want the public to see. Stuff like the name of Book 1 and MISC for the manuscripts file are fine for public viewing, but not a few other things in that file.

Hopefully that's enough to cause a few more teeth to crack, and enough to make the province shake from BIG BOOMS again. Heh.  Smiley

By the way, the new idea was officially dubbed "Untitled 9" this evening. It'll be slow at first because I AM starting out from scratch from the locations/settings of this to all new characters and a LOT more, but hopefully in time, it'll get done.

I'm going to get going in the ideas for scenes in that file now. I have a few and I want to get them down before I forget them! Cheesy

Sounds like you've been bitten by another story, VE.

Yeah, it's a mess where the storms went through. On the news tonight, they confirmed that there were 81 tornadoes in 5 states. It's really late in the season for such things and I hope it isn't a foretaste of what we'll be seeing in the spring.

Thanks, I hope I get it in too... I don't care if I'm falling asleep at the computer, I'm having one... It'll give me REALLY good dreams if I do it just before I crash!  Smiley

Yeah, I may have been bitten again... Like I said, this one will probably be slow going at first because I'm starting out from scratch for everything, unlike Book 2 and like Book 1, but hopefully in time things will get moving like they did with the first two books did after a while.

CRAP. Undecided I knew it was bad but NOT that bad!! Things were windy here, but nothing that was close to hurricane strength winds. It felt more like a nor'easter for us out here on the east coast. I know we got a LOT of rain but am unsure on exactly how much. At least it was rain and NOT snow in my mind.

Yeah, Illinois got nailed. I haven't heard but I wouldn't be surprised if Michigan took a heavy hit too. The radar for that area looked nasty last night.

I've seen photos of various spots hit, unbelievable. Sad

Hmm, Hubby said something about running errands tomorrow at some point so I would have a couple of hours alone. I wonder if I can get at least the outline of a scene done in an hour or so, or maybe even the start of a scene? I have three writing days ahead and I would like to get some writing in, even if it turns out to be junk! LOL
