Remnants of Ida...tail winds and rain. Great! I love this wind. It cools the place and makes the AC obsolete.

It seems the tougher my life gets, the harder I push. I'm sure I'll turn into jelly, soon. Between hubby's tiny operation, the taking out of a mole gone bad on his back, and my own adjustment to a blood-thinning medicine, I still wrote quite a bit for NaNo. To be fair, last few chapters were exciting to write, and I didn't have to brood over them. At this time, I'm at 21,084 words, and the good thing is, today I'm home. I am hoping to near the midpoint mark. Crossing my fingers...

At this juncture, I discovered I have two novels in one. The real story is Rosie's, the mother. But Maya's, the daughter's, voice is so fresh and loud. I am thinking...thinking...although I'll leave things as they are and continue on. I hate to say, maybe later, because I know later will never come. Maybe I can rearrange the chapter order...That I'll do for sure, but I haven't figured out how to make Rosie rise over Maya... Btw, I don't like Rosie as a person all that much, but I really like Maya. Maybe I'll dream about this or something. *Laugh*

While wrestling with NaNo and my real life, I wrote my next newsletter, which makes me happy. I also read Famous Writers School by Steven Carter to the halfway point while in the doctor's waiting room. A really good novel most of us may find close to our hearts. I'll probably finish it sometime by the end of the week, if I can steal time from NaNo.

Before I write some more, I'll go bake a bread and a cake. It's amazing how uplifting food is. *Laugh*
