I am sitting with my daughters who are both happy and playing together which is a miracle in and of itself. I have a few minutes and I want to blog, but I find that I have a lot of little things to say today, but not one specific goal. I like to blog about something specific, to take a stand, or make a statement. Today, however, I will not meet that goal. I am happy just to have a blog done.
Let me start off by saying, I am really glad Phebe is home today, but I did not see a reason for a snow day at all. The roads are fine, and the bus could have easily gotten through the subdivision. I do not understand at all what happened with all the snow. This was the actual snomageddon. Last time just prepared us for this. Back to Phebe, I am really enjoying having her home. She has been an incredible big sister the past few days, and has been playing with Samantha, and even helping to watch Parker when he is over. I love to hear her laugh, and have her around the house. I really miss her during the school year.
Having the kids get along so well frees up a lot of time for me to get stuff done. I want to edit my novel, and start to cultivate ideas for the next one I want to write. I want to blog, and read interesting blogs, and read a book. When it comes down to it though, I am doing the laundry, and re-cleaning the floor that I just cleaned because someone else dragged mud in, cooking meals, and cleaning stuff up.
I have given myself a goal to edit 1 Chapter this week, and finish reading 1 book. The editing that I have to do this week is all content based. Then I have to go back and edit overused words, and whatnot. I am reading 3 books right now. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Dante's Inferno, and Mrs. Dalloway. I think that my goal this week is to finish Dante's Inferno, I am close to the end of this one, and then I can cross it off of my list. :)
Speaking of lists.... I am off to make one!
