Well, I should say I’m writing. Did you see the new word counter on my side bar? At the bottom is the number of words I’ve set as a goal for myself for the month. On top is the number of words I’ve written for the month. As you can see, I’m woefully behind for the month. I was doing well until vacation struck. Now I’ve having a difficult time getting back into the groove. Sigh. Keep watching. Hopefully that number will climb in the next week. 10,000 words for July is looking quite ambitious at this point.

I’m also painting Brian’s room. Since we moved into this house almost 12 years ago, he’s had a space theme in there. Cute when you’re 3, not so much when you’re 15. So, the wallpaper came down and now I’m painting it green. I don’t like painting. Anyone want to come and help?? I hope to finish it this weekend. That, too, is looking rather ambitious.

And I have many, many cucumbers waiting for me to make them into pickles. This is my first try at it. Wish me luck.

I’ll try to keep up my blogging, but if I go away for a while, I’m probably buried under pickles, paint and words.
