I made it to Friday! And guess what? School starts two weeks from Monday. It seems like only a few weeks ago school was ending! Where does the time go? It flies. That’s where.
I have school clothes, a backpack and lunch box to buy. But I like to have the kiddo with me when I do those things because I want him to pick it out and be happy with it. (He did pick out a backpack – with wheels! and it was $70! I said no. haha)
I hope to do a whole lot of nothing in this heat this weekend. About the only thing I want to accomplish is progress on my two WIPs. I’ve fallen behind and it’s making me cranky and frustrated. I need to get back my momentum.
Hard to believe Monday is August!
You need to block off X amount of writing time per day and do it, even if you’re tired. You had a busy week, starting the new job and all, but don’t let all that momentum you’ve built in the past three months slide.
I’m about to order a $65 backpack from LL Bean — it’s got a sleeve specifically for laptops, and, when it’s too hard to bring my big writing bag along (like on airplanes when someone isn’t paying me to fly business), I can switch everything to this pack and it will be safe.
Have a great weekend.
Where has the summer gone?! 😕
