Coffee and curtains
Today I have a mission – to buy a bead curtain for the back door to keep the flies out when it is clement enough to leave the back door open.
Also, to check and make sure I actually DID get rid of the ant infestation.
I’d like to apologize for saying which instead of with in yesterday’s post. Sometimes when I’m taking dictation from myself I get it wrong.
Margot has slimmed down to her summer weight, both in terms of body and fur. By the time July rolls around she seems almost drawn, but a very small change in her exercise level makes a huge difference. Then around October she becomes a hair explosion again, and by the end of February if I’m not brushing her diligently every day she ends up a matted mess. I hope I don’t die before she does, I don’t know a soul who would keep up the maintenance regimen. I got a little cat malt into her yesterday but she gets bored easily and wandered away before I could get a full dose into her.
1049 words yesterday. Not a record but respectable, and it’s on a really cute scene. I think I’m done with the chapter in which Pharos meets his dad, and I think I managed to stick the landing.
So no editing yesterday. I wonder if by telling myself I should edit today I’ll give myself another 1000 word day… it all started making sense when I realized it doesn’t matter what mood I’m in.
Coffee’s on and hot, time to get some.
