Howdy! Here’s how my week looked: WRITING: Goal: Work on WIP in evening after kids go to bed. Reality: This seems to be working well, although I haven’t managed it every night of the week. Some nights I crash almost as soon as they do. :) But, I’m making good progress – the Hubster occupied … Continue reading »

ROW80 Check-In
Hi happy Row-ers! I’m keeping it short today. Last week was up and down – lots of school demands, lots of preggers fatigue. I think it’s time to re-evaluate what I can realistically get done in the months before and after Little Miss Took is born, and readjust my goals/schedule. But I’m not going to … Continue reading »
Napping, Fried Chicken, and Pedicures: Arguing w/ Self
This post is utterly uninspired. Let me tell you what I’d rather be doing right now: Napping. Eating fried chicken. The extra-crispy kind from KFC that’s guaranteed to take minutes, if not hours, off your life with every bite. Getting a pedicure. Better yet, eating fried chicken while getting a pedicure, followed up by a … Continue reading »
ROW80 Check-In: Week 3
First of all, let me say to all you who stopped by and left the sweetest, most encouraging words last week, THANK YOU.

Stick, Stack, STUCK.
Normally I don’t blog about writing. I don’t know why I shy away from it exactly. Maybe I think it’s a waste of time for me to write about writing when I could be writing instead of writing about writing. Sorry about that last sentence. Horrifying. *cringes a little* But here’s the thing: I’m stuck. … Continue reading »
Instead…
Right. So I had this uber-clever-funny blog post planned for Friday about how the invention of the dishwasher makes up for the invention of pantyhose. But this sicky-preggo stuff has me feeling selfish. All I want to do is sit in a bubble bath and re-read Twilight. (Yeah, I’m that girl. No shame here.) I … Continue reading »
Morning Sickness and WINNING!
The past five dayshave been a crash-course in Morning (aka, all-day) Sickness. Shafer Offspring#1,2,and 3 were each a pre-natal breeze, but Shafer Offspring #4? This kid marches to the beat of his/her own drum. And it’s making sure I know it. Which means I’m behind. On everything. Homeschooling? The kids are beginning to think that … Continue reading »
