Kingston would be for the full weekend... and I have gone twice in the past. It was awesome!

I checked the map and you're right - Kingston's much too far for an easy there-and-back. I'm glad you got to participate at Eden Mills, though.

In response to "Stuff About Me "

Miserably Stuck ...

I hate asking for help.

I used to belong to writer's groups here and have fond memories of readings elsewhere; but that was so long ago.

I love going to writer's events too! I enjoy the feeling of inclusion with other people who share my love of writing.

In response to "I Can to It.... yeah, right. "

I don't know if you remember me blogging about this, but Vic's dad had Alzheimer's, and it was 7 years of him just being an empty shell. Vic's mother is in the mid stages where she's violent and combative, Vic ended up placing her in a home because she was hurting the caretakers who were staying in her home with her. I worry about Vic because he is forgetful more and more, his grandparents and his parents all had some form of dementia.

I'm sorry about your Mom, that's not easy for you or her.

Awesome job, Carly and today's for picking me for your review. I have no idea whether I can complete this today at all because I'm working and my lunch time is at 12pm which is 12am WDC time. I need DST!

Your review is awesome btw.

Patience Is a Virtue

30 Day Blogging Challenge

PROMPT March 11th
Do you consider yourself a patient person? How easy or difficult is it for you to wait for something? Does a delayed reward feel more or less satisfying than an immediate reward?

I would consider myself a reasonably patient person, but I would qualify that with it depends on many factors. If I don't feel well or I am tired, my levels of patience are greatly depleted.

I would say I can wait for things and sometimes I prefer to have delayed gratification. The anticipation is part of the process.
