It's Been Awhile

Yes, I'm still here and kicking. I've been knee deep in revisions and finally sent my ms out for one final look. At this point, I'm not sure what to expect as I hope those reading it enjoy the story.

In other news, my life has been busy for the past seven weeks. I’m training a guy to get ready for his pro day at University of Miami. When I first saw him run, I cringed. But now he’s doing much better and should do very well in a couple of weeks.

Oh, and my eight-year-old spilled chocolate milk on my laptop. Eek!!! Yes, that wasn’t a fun day at all. But I saved the important things somewhere else as Geek Squad is going to try and save it. I'm glad we have a desktop at home.

Rule of thumb: Keep your children away from your computer. J

13 What Others Are Saying...:

  2. Nice to know you're still alive ;)

    ...I think there's a way higher chance of my spilling something on my own keyboard :p since I don't have kids (just a black cat & beagle) and I'm incredibly clumsy ;)

    Let us know if the laptop survives!

  3. I freak out about my kids around the computer for that very reason.

  4. Bummer about your laptop. Milk is a tough one to clean. Did you cry over spilled milk?

    And how cool are you to be training someone? I wish you lived closer so you could whip my butt into shape.

    I'm crossing my fingers for you that you've completed your last round of revisions... for now. :)

  7. Congrats on the final revision! Good luck with sending out the book!

    In answer to your question--A-Z is a blog challenge in April where you publish one post M-Sat following the letters of the alphabet. It is quite an endurance challenge, but I so loved doing it this year. More than a thousand bloggers sign up for it. Check it out at: http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/

  8. Yippeee for the final draft.

    I often drink while I'm typing and should be careful about spilling.

    I hope your computer works soon.
