Day two. It’s 7h17am. I am up to 3000 words. I feel good.
Canada Day BBQ at the Basement Office house was a rousing success. Good filling food, great friends and lots of good talk and as a bonus, two little ones running around, it was a great day.
Once everyone left, we cleaned up, put the baby down and I was ready to collapse. It took everything I had to get another 1000 words down, but I’m proud to say I did it. I might not have made it if I was starting from zero as my original plan was.
Today is no less busy. We’re heading to my parents’ for lunch and the plan is to take my daughter to see Ostriches and Alpacas north of here. She’s a little young, but she should enjoy it all the same.
I’m sure I’ll be dead when we get back.
This is why I’m very glad to have another 1000 words down this morning. Woo!

A comment. A comment!! 🙂
Well done on the 3000 words. And of course, the party yesterday. Once again, my great thanks.
Thanks babe! I loved having you there! I see that you made new friends too!
Stuff like that makes events so satisfying to me.
Wordcount! Hurray! Sometimes it’s our days ‘off’ which prove to be the most challenging in order to get anything written. When we’re working, somehow it’s easier to think of sitting down and writing as just an extra thing on the to-do list.
Congrats on hitting 3k!
SO true! In an earlier post, I didn’t quite express my frustration that my chair isn’t like a big butt magnet to get me to write, yet I still feel that NEED to write.
If I ever figure out how to eliminate or at least dampen the need to avoid this work at all cost, I’ll definitely post it and pass it on!
In the meantime, thank you for your invaluable support.
