What's Going On
Sep. 12th, 2010 02:11 pmI thought I should actually post about what's been happening irl for a change, so here goes.
Still writing, though not much else is getting done. Ideas abound -- I always seem to have "another" idea when it comes to writing.
The furkids are fine. Spoiled rotten, but fine. I am trying to get things ready for winter so hopefully they will not all be camping inside my porch.
I renewed my driver's license and the new pic looks just as awful as the old one. Gah! ::shudders:: Worst of all, my e-sig looks nothing at all like my real sig. I hope that doesn't prove to be a problem down the road but if it does, I'll just find a way to deal, I guess.
My cleaning lady is going on maternity leave at the end of the month, so I won't have any help until just before Thanksgiving or Christmas/New Years at the earliest. :/She says she doesn't want to be out of town when the baby comes, which I understand. Otoh, this is her fourth baby, and it's only a 20 min. drive to the hospital from here, so I hope it's just caution and that there's not some high-risk issue she's not talking about.
I am also trying to get things ready for winter because I just *know* the first frost will be very soon, definitely before the end of the month.
My budget skills are minimal at best. I don't know where the money goes (ok, I do -- you do know what I mean though, right?) So I am basically not going anywhere or doing anything, which means I do not get to go to Bas-con (which I have secretly been hoping to do again for years), or go and visit family for the holidays. No more movies either. Otoh, I haven't been overly impressed by what has been showing locally so in some ways that's no issue. At least living online makes life in general much more bearable.
