Finally back!

Not only are we back from vacation in WI/MN, but we are almost back into a routine. The time change really messed with the kids sleeping schedule. But the girls have been slowly getting back into a decent night time. Ali is going back to gymnastics and this week she also starts dance class! (she is so excited.). We have tried to go to story time at the library, and finally able to actually have down time. We all had a blast, but as always it's good to be back. There are two things I am started to get excited about: 1. The Olympics are starting soon!! 2. Back to school shopping!! The Olympics are simply amazing, when else do you get to see athletes from so many other countries compete? I always cheer for USA and Japan. And for whatever reason I've enjoyed back-to-school shopping since I was little. Plus it's a good excuse to gather supplies for my writing! Speaking of writing, that front has taken some interesting turns. After my recent reading I've decided both of my manuscripts need something else. The most amazing part is I didn't think I could add anything else to my first MS. But the more I incorporate this change in my mind the better it sounds. At this rate I'm not sure any of my writing will ever be lassified as finished but it's still fun to do. I'm also waiting to hear from winters digest your story completion, I just checked and they are still voting. So I will make the necessary changes to both MS's and the specific additions to my second MS (I'm still working on that part.) as or the word journal I plan to start again today!

Typing in a sleep state

So, my oldest woke up early this morning and my youngest apparently has five teeth coming in and does not want to sleep. Needless to say I a currently very tired, and watching my youngest eat one of her cardboard stacking blocks. As much as I want to be I can't be upset with her, she seems so happy walking around the living room picking up any toy she finds. She recently had her first birthday so I have been really busy with that. And now I am planning ur trip to Wisconsin to see my mother and step father. The almost week long trip should prove exciting, but I'm most worried about the time change. It's just one of those things you never think about until you have small children and you think about a routine bedtime for them. With all excuses firmly in place I have only been able to write a few hundered words a day, not as much as I wanted but it's still something. I also have been researching and brainstorming and reading a new book as market research. It's different than I expected it to be but very interesting, and giving me great ideas. And my husband gave me a free "out" to sleep and I'm going to take it. Goodnight!
