I've maxed out. Closed this blog.
This is a way of making myself write something coherent and grammatically correct almost every day. I'm opinionated and need an outlet. I'm also prone to flights of fancy. Thanks for stopping by.

         Well, I finished 50,000 words plus for NaNoWriMo, but I still don't have the ending. It's in sight, I'm working on the climax, and then have to tie things up. But I made the word count. I'm too close to quit now.

         I still managed to clean house today, wash some clothes, put away the holiday dishes, and fit a lot of writing in. I didn't wrap presents which was one of my goals along with exercising and doing Christmas cards. But there's always tomorrow. If I ever met all my goals, what would I have to go on for?

         I'm happy I didn't go shopping. I still have money in the bank. I always found when I went Christmas shopping, I bought more things for myself. I'm not one of those women who gets a thrill hanging out at the mall, or shopping for bargains, or trying on clothes. So by staying home, I got to keep my money and my sanity. I did my writing and cleaning, and I'm happy.

         Isn't it glorious to have a day after, to recover from the holiday, from stressing or sleep deprivation or family or whatever, and to start on the plans to do it all again the next holiday? Life goes on, and we need more days after, to rest, to come back to our senses, to change the pace, to do nothing and not feel guilty about it. I promise I will exercise tomorrow!
