Good Afternoon. Maybe. It will depend on how this game turns out I guess. :) (Watching the Steelers game as I'm recording the pending 8 votes that I currently have

I'm on day 2 of a second trimester cold. I was really hoping to feel better by now, but I'm just miserable. So I think I may have another day of feeling useless here.
I’m getting ready to work. I have about 10,000 words to write today, which is a bit more than my norm (8,000 is my daily goal). So I’m heading to a coffee shop for most of the day. I’ll also try to get my votes in, it’s just been hectic.
I'm "proofreading" (hahaha!) a book that repeatedly uses the term "Hence why...". WTF? I haven't told my client (the publisher) yet, but I'm doubling my rates for him starting January 1. If I'm going to do copyedit-level work on a manuscript (he has a copyeditor who works on each book before I do, "hence why" I'm being paid to proofread) I'm going to charge my CE rates. So this is probably the last book I'll be doing for him, and good riddance.
Had to work this morning but now, I'm focused on the sewing machine. I'm making flannel car blankets for my fellow crossing guard rovers for our traditional dinner and there's eight of them. Lots of work still ahead.
We got the outdoor decorations up but I'm debating about not decorating indoors this year. Our son's visiting in the United States over the holidays, so it's just my husband and myself for the first time since the kid was born. Feels kind of weird.
That’s the weirdest feeling ever. We’re going low on the indoor decorating too because the HoneyB is now an emerging toddler. I could spend all day saying “no” and redirecting or I can just put out less stuff.
Is the HoneyB your child, or grandchild? It's been a long time since there's been anyone that age in my family. The youngest generation now ranges from 12 to 25. No grand kids in sight ATM.
The children have left, I have finished reading and voted, and the rest of the day is mine! I'll do all kinds of fun exciting things, I just know it. Or I'll get caught up on some chores.
