Wanna Know Wednesday #10...

Soooo, welcome to another episode of Hump Day. Yep, it's Wednesday again. Wasn't it just Wednesday, like, a week ago? LOL.

Today is Tim's last day of work this week. His work weeks go really fast now that he's down to three days. Our youngest woke up this morning asking where her daddy is. When I told her that he was at work, she stomped her foot and yelled, "NO! I want it to be Friday!" She doesn't quite understand that he's home on Thursdays now, too. LOL. She is a true daddy's girl.

I managed to finish a SAHM article yesterday and start another one before the girls were home from school. However, I never got to my erotic romance story. Makes me sad, but I'll get to it. I plan to get that other article finished today and set up another one for tomorrow. I've been slacking on the article writing in favor of my book writing, so now I have a lot of articles to get completed before the desire is gone again.

I have to be in the mood to work on articles. One week I may be all gung-ho and crank out article after article. Then, the next week I find them so boring that I can't even entertain the idea of writing an article. Those are the weeks when the excitement of story-writing draws me in.

Oh yeah, it's also Wanna Know Wednesday, isn't it? I almost forgot. So here is your list of complete randomness about lil ole me. :-)
  1. I am currently listening to the movie War, Inc. in the background.
  2. I love, love, love the Xbox I bought Tim for Christmas. Mainly because it's so easy to watch my Netflix Instant Play Queue whenever I want.
  3. I have a candle burning next to me that smells soooooo good. It's called Pink Sugar and was a Christmas gift from my friend, Mis.
  4. I'll be making a Tuna Casserole for dinner tonight.
  5. I need to clean my refrigerator. Sometime, maybe...
  6. I'm currently wondering if Spring will ever decide to warm up, or if I'll just wake up to Summer one morning.
  7. Tim's vasectomy is two weeks from tomorrow. Oh, I already mentioned that yesterday? Well, I'm excited! Can't you tell?? LOL!
  8. I'm currently waiting for the bank to call me about refinancing our mortgage. It'll knock our payments almost in half AND knock 2 yrs off of it. I just don't know why it takes soooo long to get stuff like this done. Sheesh!
  9. I love the smell of fresh coffee, but can't stand the taste. I don't care how much sugar, or cream, or milk, or whatever you put in it, I can't stand the taste.
  10. I need freshen up my hair color. This red isn't natural, you know. LOL!

Anyway, I'm off to get some work done. I hope you have a nice Wednesday. :-)

It hasn't been a busy day.

After yesterday's flurry of activity, today was as far from that as possible. I woke up to rain, clouds, wind, and cool temps. It was the kind of day that's made for laying in bed all day.

I wasted the day by watching "The Happening," chatting online, playing on Plurk, and teaching the 3yr old how to use a computer mouse. You can read about her internet gaming meltdown here.

The big girls are now out of school until next Tuesday. I have no idea why. Luckily the in-laws decided to take the two older girls for the night (after confirming with me that they were indeed out of school tomorrow). So now it's pretty quiet... if the 3 yr old would stop begging for dinner when it's nowhere near dinner time.

I did manage to read several more chapters in "Undead and Unworthy" by MaryJanice Davidson. She's one of my favorites. I should be done with this book by Friday and then no more reading while I get started on the writing of my next book.

I don't know if I'll be able to post again until next week. I have a frantically busy few days coming up and with the kids being home... well, lets just say, think happy thoughts for my sanity over the next five days. LOL! Thank goodness Tim & I will be out of town Saturday!

Until next time...

I'm bored...

Yes, I *should* be working on my book edits, but I'm not in the mood. I created a to-do list on Sunday, for all the things that I wanted/needed to get done this week. I've done them ALLLL, except the one at the top of the list that states "Edit 5 chapters each day".

Monday, I finished all 5 chapters. Tuesday, I got caught up chatting online with my friend, Mis. I went to bed still needing to finish 1 1/2 of Tuesday's chapters. Here it is, nearly noon, on Wednesday and I haven't even started on today's chapters OR the leftover ones from yesterday. LOL.

Yet, I'm bored. My house is clean. Lunch has been served. Laundry is washed. I even cleaned the girls' bathroom AND two ceiling fans.

I have an hour and a half before I have to go pick the big girls up at school. So, I *should* be working. But, I'm not. I'm watching Rachel Ray and playing online. LOL!

While I'm goofing off, my friend Mis made me two little goodies last night. These are what she calls "stamps" and are, apparently, all the rage. LOL!



Anyone who likes them, and would like to use them, is welcome to take them to add to your website. If you are linking them, please link to http://www.christiesilvers.com or this blog http://christiesilvers.blogspot.com .

If you do use them, please leave me a message and let me know where you're using the stamps. I'd love to see!! :-)

Ok, I'm leaving. I guess I better get to work. I can at least get the leftover chapters from yesterday done. I'll be back tomorrow with this week's Thursday Thirteen! I haven't decided what the topic will be yet, but there WILL be a topic. LOL!

Have a great Hump Day!
