Can We Talk 2

         It's almost time to do another National Novel Writing Month. I can't do it again this year. I have two unedited renditions from the last two years, I still want to finish them, at least to my satisfaction. But this year, I just have too much going on. I don't need one more volume of stuff that's not going any where.

         I'm only working part-time, 30 hours a week, but I have a home to take care of and regular visitors to feed. My dad is slowly doing less for himself and the yard, and is needing more attention. He fell today and skinned his elbow pretty good; so I spent the afternoon in the walk-in clinic getting him cleaned up and bandaged. I also have a bad back that goes out in a nano-second. At present, I'm not in agony, but I can't bend over or stand up too quickly or pick anything up. I was forcing myself to get my dad through the clinic and back out to the car without moaning or groaning out loud.

         I also have a lot of responsibilities at church. Teaching older women Bible study is something I've been doing for about 2 months. It takes a lot of prep time. They have a lot of questions. I thought that they'd be giving me answers since they've been at this longer than me, but no. I still have to do extra research to answer next week what they questioned this week.

         So I will try to do more short writing and edit some old stuff instead of starting a new project.
