Writing

If I had nothing else to do, I'd have this blogsite and my blogster site all spiffed up and reader ready!  If lots of people read my blogs, I'd do it anyway.  If I never had to sleep, eat, clean, (etc times 100), I could have my sci fi fiction ms all ready to commit to market.  If I could find my way out of a paper bag, I would have travelled to places of inspiration for my poetry.  If life didn't interfere with what I would like to accomplish, I'd be "all caught up."  Wait a minute....isn't life what I write about?  As insignificant as these interruptions seem to be, they seem to be snippets of life.  If I didn't have my life, I wouldn't be typing these words on this page, now, would I?
If I can find more time, I will make every effort to stay up-to-date on my blogsites while at the same time finding even more time to write.  The rest of the time, life can have at me! 

My "word!" I should say, my LACK of words!!! Wait a minute...I hear something...do you hear it as well? It sounds like WHOOSH would feel! I do believe that I am experiencing an OOB! I am actually hearing TIME flying! Oops...I think that perhaps if I am OOB, then time is no longer linear. I guess I am not OOB, but very in this one. I hate that time is linear. It passes me by! Yes, I am older. Yes, I have lost two months of writing! That's even worse than getting older!!
I know, enough with the exclamation marks, awready!
I will update this blog in September. My daughter and granddaughter have been here with us in Maine from Virginia for the month of August. It's been a combination of heaven and hell. The energy is intense and they have so much of it. I don't. I have gotten really tired. The house is a wreck, and my precious rat, Macadamia, has not gotten the attention that he so deserves, although I have not neglected him, I promise. He is on my shoulder right now and kissing the back of my neck, which is grooming, which is his way of showing me affection. I love him so much. Anyway, the lack of energy and things getting tipsy topsy turvy have been the hell. My time with my recently turned five year old granddaughter wipes out any thoughts of the hell and turns the atmosphere into heaven, unless she is exhausted, and that is another story. She is extremely intuitive and comes up with observations that completely floor me. I need to write some of her stuff up to save. She's amazing. What? You question my observations due to the fact that I am her grandmother and as a result, biased? Nah. Not at all.
I will return to this blogsite soon and share my progress with my sci-fi novel for a YA audience. I am three and a half chapters into it. It went back burner when my girls got here, but I will tackle it with enthusiasm as soon as the dust settles. Actually, I am flying back with them to VA in a few days. I'll be there for three weeks. One of my promises to me was to be present (physical body as long as I can and then spirit after I leave this physical body behind) at life changing events for my granddaughter. Well, she is starting Kindergarten this fall. Now, THAT is life changing! Her mommy will be a basket-case, so there are actually two life changing events that are pending; my Nadia starting Kindergarten, and my Cindy needing to be able to "let go," just a tad! Wish us all luck! Until next time...
