Almost There

 It's amazing what a week can do.  The Mohs surgery on my face is mostly forgotten.  The skin colored tape is off and all that's left is a scar that kind of fits in with my wrinkles.  The hot weather has cooled and we've had some cool gray mornings.  I love the cheerfulness of the sun, but the more moody skies have been a welcome change.  Yesterday, I didn't have to turn on the AC.  Yay!

I have been plowing ahead with the last go over of my manuscript. There have been a few uh oh moments when I came to plot errors, but so far I have been able to fix them.  That's always the big fear when I go over a manuscript--that there will be a huge hole in the plot. 

I have only a few more days to finish up working on it, so I am letting mostly everything else go.  That means a lot of cleaning will be waiting for me.  For now, it's keep the sink clear of dirty dishes and water my plants--and take out the garbage and be sure to feed the cat.  As if she would let me forget.

I like having something to focus on so intently, but I'm always glad when it's done.  For a few days at least.  Then I will pick up working on the next Yarn Retreat book.  But only until I get the edits on SCONED TO DEATH and have to go back to it.

It's funny how i long for leisure and then feel kind of empty when I have it.
