OK good! - we'll be going up as early as we can make it in the morning... considering that we have to sip a little coffee and get stalls cleaned first and all.

Just more fiction...just with more time to think about it is all. I want to rewrite my current story, which is bscially sci-fi, and then I have a mystery to try and a sort of a love story.

Wish I had more short story ideas, though. I need to practice that.

That's the beauty of post-NaNo writing...you can do it whenever the mood strikes and you have time, but there's no pressure. ;-)

Unless you have family hounding you to read it when they visit for Christmas. Urgh. It's maybe a third finished at 50K.

So...tell 'em to deal with it. ;-) Or that you'll give 'em copies of the final draft next Christmas.

Could even print book copies eventually, even if you never try to publish. I used this site to do that book for my little sister. Cost me something like seven dollars for a copy, as I recall, which isn't that bad, really. They didn't have the hard cover option when I did it.

In my case, I just completed my post-NaNo ritual of printing out what I've written, so I can stash that stack o' paper somewhere. Gives me a hard copy backup before I start hacking away at the thing.

Heh, our Christmas Tree is packed in the trailer, along with all our other Christmas decorations. I have a couple of smaller ones, though, that we'd used in other rooms at Christmas, so I'll decorate one of those. The kids will be glad they won't be asked to put 'all 600' of the ornaments on the tree this year. ;o)

I guess it was too warm under there to be a totally disappeared cat.

Perhaps I should be more diligent about watering and fertilizing. I also have a couple of cherry tomatoes that have blooms and little 'maters coming.

How long before the squirrels break and enter? ;-)

I just have many clones of the original plants I had when I moved in. The one that was by the sink when I got here is now three plants which keep growing too big and having to be trimmed. And the monster plant also has offspring, and I really should cut it back, too. Gave one of the cuttings to my sister-in-law, but I think it died.
