This working full weeks again is a drag. 😉
The weekend was good. Had my local chapter meeting on Saturday morning with a very informative guest. She talked about writing and taxes. It always helps to know what you can and can’t deduct. Then we all went to lunch and I had some delish tortilla soup and some great conversation. The group is so much fun and it’s nice to be able to talk with other writers.
Saturday afternoon I spent at the computer. Man had to work so I had the house to myself. I finished the financial report for one chapter and worked on gathering documents for the other. I will be glad when I get this renewal packet done so I can get on with my life.
Then I sent out some requests to potential guests for the luncheon. Hopefully I can get one agent and one editor to come do appointments for us but I’m not holding my breath. One already said no since he had a conflict which is a total bummer. So I’m going to contact a few more before I totally give up.
Went to dinner with the girls and had a smashing good time. We met at Macaroni Grill and drank wine and had food and dessert. I was stuffed and we chatted for nearly three hours before finally breaking it up. I got home in time to see the end of the Cowboys game – and they won! WOO!
Sunday was very calm and quiet. Had the house to myself most of the day and spent it doing laundry and watching episodes of Lost. I cooked dinner and then at about 9 I finally sat down to write. That must be my time to write because I can’t seem to do it any other time. Wrote for about an hour revision a section and then finally crashed.
I’m not sure I’m ready for another week – it’s going to be a busy one, too. But I guess I just have to face it anyway. Here’s to Monday!
And that’s why we live for weekends, right? And Hooray you got to write!
So true, I look forward to the weekends but end up spending it doing the things I wasn’t able to do during the week. I still have a day job, and I write in between that + school and a freelance graphic design gig by the time I do all my catch up stuff and spending time with family my weekend is gone and it’s back to Monday. But this year I’m working on a better [seasonal] writing schedule so that I can at least have a few weeks out of the year truly dedicated to my ‘personal’ time.
Sounds like you had a nice relaxing weekend. 🙂
