When the acorns of life are thrown at you, you have two choices: catch them or get wacked in the head by them. (I guess a third, less practical choice would be to catch the acorns and nail the psycho squirrel who is chunking them at you.) This week I caught a lot of acorns. Life just got in the way of my writing and I did not have any time to dedicate to my WIP. I drop the kids off at school at 8am and I have to pick them up at 12pm, my time is short and valuable. Here is my plan.
What I am not doing today….
I am not Feeding my kids.
I am not feeding the washer and dryer any more. (Even though I have plenty of dirty clothes for it to snack on. I swear our laundry basket is like the cup that runneth over, it never ends!)
I am not going to lunch with my friends.
I am not answering the phone.
I am not reading my emails.
I am not reading any blogs, until after noon. I hope.
I am not reading any blog comments (especially my own, you peeps are da bomb but not ‘til noon)
I am not going to boxing class today. (That really bums me but I went to the gym every day since Saturday, I need a break plus I visited my evil trainer twice this week so he could beat me to a pile of pulp.)
What I am doing today…
Ok fine, I’ll feed the kids but this is the last time.
I am finishing my WIP.
I am finishing my WIP.
I am finishing my WIP.
I am finishing my WIP.
Yes, I am willing it so. Four hours should plenty of time to write the last 2000 words right? Oh, I don’t know I’m nervous. Distractions happen.
