For anyone still reading here, I've been a busy girl. I've got an AU that I write in and last month I did over 10,000 words there. But I got to the place I wanted to be and that is such a good feeling. Cut and paste and renew myself.
I've almost ALMOST got the footie jerseys lined out for my son's team. The lady doing the embroidery is so NEEDY. I've had to do more hand holding than I can comfortably deal with. We had our second game this weekend. My kids were all sick, so I only had two show up to play. The other coach agreed to 2 on 2 playing shortened periods. My two boys kicked his four kids' butts.... erm... I should say, my boys played very well. I'm so proud.
I got my daughter's records up to date and she's enrolled in preK -finally, yay! Which is another HUGE burden lifted from my shoulders. I hate that I hit these patches of inertia where nothing clicks or works right, but I'm moving again and right now that is all that matters.
We've been writing poetry today:
~~~
Phono, highway-day.
Choco-restaurant I like,
it's okay;
'das what I like.
It goes with another 'S'
to Roho's.

Freaky and cool, and I'm not just saying that because she's my daughter or she's only 4. It's got an awesome meter and a subtle sneakiness that makes you wonder if you just look at it right, maybe you'll GET it.
And I've gone through some of my work and picked out a piece to share with the world at large. I'm off now to find submission information for poetry in our local paper. Tired of being scared.
