TWICE.................

Penth, you're safe, so is the rest of your family. This is someone that's supposed to be one of my biggest local supporters. GODS. *SIGH*

I know we are. I just don't want to get spattered when the "stuff" hits the fan! I'll watch from a safe distance!

Signed out before I completely lost it with her. She's one that would get ticked off and get snarky and play the victim if I snarled at her. GODS. *SIGH*

It was so freaking tempting to do that though......................

Sorry.

Sounds like it's time to take a major break from facebook. Just say that you're "'bad company' right now" and split. You'll get some work done, preserve your sanity and avoid playing into the hands of "friends" who want to monopolize your time and then play the victim when you object.

I told her I had to sign out if I wanted to get work done without killing someone because I was being "BEEPED" constantly. If she didn't like it, her problem. I'll probably email or call Tabby later to let her know WHY I wasnt' around FB if she happened to pop in, although she knows if I'm not in there this time of day, either I got fed up with attention seekers and drama queens/kings or am offline writing.

Now if the guys would just stay OUT of the computer area and NOT make so much flipping noise, I'd be in a much better mood. *SIGH*

I'm too fed up to work right now. I may wind up going upstairs with Cat for a couple of hours to calm down and get a little sleep. CSI is a new one and I'll be up really late so if I want to be able to understand it, I'd better rest a little before it comes on.

Okay I give in. I'm going to hand the computer over to Son for a bit and go rest. Not sure if I'll be back later or not. Stupid Windows updates. *SIGH*

Have a great Wednesday everyone. Cheesy

In the interests of megabyte conservation plus the fact that laundry needs to be done and my eyes are "complaining", I'm going offline for a while. At least I've added nearly 800 words to First Death this morning so I don't feel like a total slacker in the writing department. I'll be back in a few hours.

Back.
I just opened the door to let the Queen in and she was on the top step and not inclined to move. I looked to my right and there was an enormous possum nosing around in the leaves alongside the house. With the light on and it knowing that I was there it started walking away and I was able to convince the Queen that it was safe to turn take her eyes off of it and come inside.

I hope that Skywise has time to update the Adobe plug in tomorrow. Thanks to FireFox's meddling, the one we have doesn't work and I can't check any radar without it and since tomorrow's weather is going to be unpredictable at best, I'm not happy about not being able to track it on the computer.

Skywise got home about 45 minutes ago and the plug is fixed so we can keep track of nasty incoming weather tomorrow.

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Morning. Hubby got called into work this morning and there IS school so I'm hoping to get going in the writing today.... Even if it's writing up the "prewriting" stuff I need for Eleven!

Thanks to Bestie, I have a name chosen for Eleven, but not sure if it'll be the lead female or another major player's name yet. I do know how at least one of the scenes is going to go so I may play around with that today or tomorrow. Cheesy

Heck if I can get even two hundred words of new material added somewhere in one of the WIPs today I'm going to be happy............

Here until a little after bus time... Back road closures are in effect so the bus will be here LATE this morning. Better that than school being closed..... Wink

I think I have a decent "hook" for starting off a new WIP so I'm going to head out and get writing. See y'all in a few hours. Cheesy

YAY Smiley

We been home for a while but I had something to do outside that I wanted to get done before more nasty weather moves in -- which is now has an ETA of 6 pm and is supposed to be outta here by 10 pm. I certainly hope so. I don't need any of this kind of foolishness this early in the year!

Thanks!

The roads were horrible this morning and we're getting more gunk tomorrow. Ice pellets in the afternoon and rain tomorrow evening. I hope the roads are good enough for me to go to the live show in town tomorrow......... I really need a break from everything and live music is just what the doctor prescribed!!!

I will once Hubby gets home... That should be within an hour or maybe a bit more. I've been awake since 4:30 and worked all day, and the transition mode is really making me WONKY.....

Thanks.  Smiley I want to see progress on your end today too....

Okay. I'm getting a little added, the wind is starting to pick up and it's making me tense. I had an early wake-up call this morning too -- the first round of thunderstorms woke both of us up. I'm pretty sure that the girls slept right through it.
