Riding Horses

The kids have been on Fall Break this week -- so my writing time has been limited and my quiet time has been even less We try to balance their need to play/shout/run/eat/explode-with-joy with my need to write. So far, it's worked out pretty well. Today was a perfect example. We spent the morning with friends up in the north Georgia mountains, riding horses. The kids had an absolute blast, and the fresh air and mountain views lifted my spirits high. I had my notebook with me and jotted down sensory descriptions I wanted to remember.

Here are the kids on horseback:

When we got home in the afternoon it was "Mama's Boring Work On The Computer Time," and the kids went outside with the neighborhood kids to play/shout/run/eat-a-snack/explode-with-joy. I worked on my entry for the finals in WYRM's Gauntlet (such a challenging write for me!), and then I wrote this for Acme's "Invalid Item" :

Now I Lay Me Down To Rest...  (13+) Vignette with a Halloween flavor -- written for Acme's Freestyle Writing Challenge #1606538 by NickiD89

All in all, it was a fantastic day! I hope yours was too
