Finally. After weeks of holiday madness and cooking and cleaning and shopping and wrapping and following rules I don't even believe in and trying to be not the perfect wife and mother but the adequate wife and mother (and daughter and aunt and sister and friend)....
I got an entire afternoon to myself.
So what did I do?
I wrote. I opened the story that I've been working on for months and months and haven't looked at in weeks and just sat down and let the words flow.
It was as painful and ecstatic as it was going to yoga for the first time in two weeks was yesterday.
Okay. That's not true.
It was a hundred more times more painful and a hundred more times more ecstatic.
Now I'm gonna go cook me some salmon.
Oh yeah.
Thanks for leaving the comments and clearing up that mystery. I'll bet you didn't even know your internet service provider was routed through Apopka, FL! I'm going to make you a link, although I'm not sure how much more I'm going to write - is that OK?
ReplyDeleteI'd love for you to link me. I'll link you, too.
ReplyDeleteAnd please don't stop writing. You have a style that is unique. Your voice is very strong and very much your own.
EXCELLENT! That is perfect. I'm grinning with good envy :)
