- At first I thought the school year would be great for Molly. Then I spent a night in tears bawling over an email that showed me how little they understood my girl…and then the next day I was able to meet with the teacher and went back to feeling positive again. Who knows where this year will end up.
- Kennedy has also lucked out in the teacher department. She’s got one willing to understand and work on her temper issues and communicate them with me. Total bonus.
- For weeks I’ve been working on edits for my manuscript. This is just my personal ‘clean up’ round – it’s just the start. So much work to be done to get that book out into the world.
- In between edits I finished another novel. Now that one needs to be polished up and submitted ’round the world.
- Having a quiet house during the day is a beautiful thing. Things are cleaned, bills are paid, I am calmer.
- Erik’s birthday is next Friday. The old man turns 45. Quite a milestone for such a baby face.
- Been running again. Each run varies between going really well and me wanting to collapse and die. Here’s hoping I make it to the 5k and through it!
- I also have a big anniversary coming up. 10 years. Wowsa.
I am glad your children ended up with good teachers. My special needs grandson will not be going back to school for at least 4 more weeks he had spinal surgery a few weeks ago. We are really hoping he lucks out this year, teacher wise.
I am working on 3 writing projects at the moment. I have had a lot of trouble staying focused this summer…
Have a great weekend!
