I'm 37 . . . wait, what?

Saturday, October 23, 2010


Yeah, I know, bad blogging practices. Well, let me start by recapping October. Sage had a birthday. He's the old one. ;-) 39! We've been married 14 years. It's been awesome. We're a great pair, if I do say so myself. After this we headed out of town -- me off to Holly's for wedding prep! Yeah Holly and Alex! Sage went off to Chicago for business. Then on to Indy birthday preparations. This kid is going to have one kick ass party!

School is wonderful. It's hard to explain Waldorf education to people, so I don't try to beyond saying that he's at a hippie artsy parochial school, essentially. OK, clearly I am uninspired by blogging lately what with this laundry list of latest activities. It's the creative writing. It sucks up all my writing mojo.

I have joined a critique group and they seem to like my second draft pretty well thus far. I am hoping to have it completed by September 2011 and then start the process of shopping it around. I am three chapters in after 4 weeks of work and have probably 15 to go.

So there it is . . . year 37: I spend all my free time dabbling in fiction writing, hanging with Indy & Sage, being a house Frau, and volunteering at school. Sounds boring when down on paper, but I'm really blissed out. I feel like a free agent with a peaceful life and heaps of random fortune. Tah-Dah!

OK, that is all. Perhaps I can get inspired to blog again a bit sooner.

It doesn't sound boring at all. It sound like paradise. Next year, when I am out of the fog that is academia, I hope you will find me a worthy enough reader to show some of your manuscripts to. I would love to see what you are writing. I have always admired your style.

Happy BD, love to the Lewis clan, and send my congrats to Holly!

Congrats received! Thanks! Finally hopping on that marriage bus now that I found the ticket to the right destination. (ugh, awful metaphor there). Are you back in school, Jamie? Don't forget your backpack and crayons! ;-)
