Welcome to Sunday, and November 1st! Today is the day that the National Novel Writing Month begins. Woohoo! I'm super excited about this month and hope to have the first draft of the next Liz Baker story completed by November 30th (preferably sooner).
I won't be able to get started on my word count until we return from visiting the in-laws today. However, I do have loads of notes, ideas, and thoughts on paper, in the computer file, and stored away in my head. I have the book's computer file all set and ready for the story to begin. It's open and sitting here on my desktop so that I'll be able to jump right in when we get home. Woohoo!
Okay, so last night was Halloween. We took the kids and Rex the Super Pup out to forage for sweet things to eat. It was sooooo crowded in the neighborhood that we go to (my grandmother's), and we got rained on. Blah! Therefore, I was thoroughly thrilled that their candy buckets ended up full to the tippy top after only 8 houses. Yay!
After that we loaded them back into the van and partook in the 50 cent corndog deal at Sonic for their late dinner. It's not everyday that you can feed three children for only $7 (including fries). Tim & I had Subway. Yum!
Rex the Super Pup had a decent time. He freaked out when he met my mom's chihuahua, but that only lasted a moment and then he was intrigued by this other dog so close in size. LOL. However, he was happy when we returned home and he was back on his own turf.
Well, I'm off. We need to get ready for Tim's parents and the back home for me to get started on NaNoWriMo. Once I get the word count widget on here (on the left), you'll probably notice that some days will be low in word count and others will be extremely high. My ideas come in spurts--some are small and some are gigantic. :-)
Have a great Sunday and try not to get a tummy ache from all the candy you collected last night.
