Accomplishment, And Not
NICE day off. Oh all days should all be this way.
Oh wait, they will be. Eventually. 
I got a chunk of the to-do list accomplished (although not the tire chains, grr), and some relaxing done, including even a proto-nap on the couch (and I am one who DOES NOT NAP)–but, most importantly, I finished my first draft of “Neither Love Nor Golden Spider Beetles” and sent it out to first readers. It hit very nearly exactly 3,000 words, which I had intended before I started…and that, dear readers, is because when I got to 2,400 words and didn’t know how it ended, I thought, Self, you have to bring this story in in 600 words.
So I did.
Can it really be that easy? Time will tell! My first first reader (Jay) says it’s good…waiting to hear from the rest.
And now–(yay) dinner with the doctodds, and (boo hiss) back to work tomorrow. But–7 more days!
