Ah…the passion for my novel revision is still there but life — life is getting in the way, and that is not such a bad thing this week.
School is starting this week so it’s been a lot of prepping my oldest baby this last week for a new phase in his life – First Grade. And mentally prepping myself, as well. And physically prepping and trying to get ready for the school season again. So my other baby – that novel revision – has been sitting to the side this past week. No changes incorporated in seven days. I eeked a page or two for my original draft this week but that’s about it.
The good news: the passion to accomplish my goals is still there and there’s still a bunch of days left in this round. Whew!

Our first also started grade 1 this year. Our school year in South Africa runs from January but I must admit that the ‘real life’ of school interferes with our lives in a big way and that the whole family needs to adapt to cope. I keep hoping we could home school but then I would have no time to write.
Keep the passion alive.
Isn’t it amazing how much school affects life in a big way? My whole family needs to adapt too. How to fit it all in – now that’s a question I would like the answer to.
good luck to him in first grade. my daughter starts Pre-K at the end of this month, and I can’t believe she’s old enough for that all ready. Good luck on meeting your goals this week.
Thanks! I can’t believe school is here already!
Your children go back to school earlier than ours here – that baby need you more than the word baby methinks – all the best for this week
Alberta,
You’re so right! Thanks – all the best to you in your goals this week.
