Writing:

Not a lot of actual forward motion again today.  Mostly because I spent some time reworking a few scenes.  I have a clear idea of where I’m going with the next few right now, and on another day I might push on and try to get them worked out.  Today I’m teetering on the edge of exhaustion, and I’m forced to give it up for the day.

The men in the basement are earning their keep right now.  I’m able to tie together a few things fairly neatly and I know how everything is going to turn out.  I just need to get there.  And seriously, I miss having energy right now.  It’s taking me forever to do everything.

Real life:

It feels like summer today – so far, the temperature has hit 31C.  And I’m really feeling it – I’m running warm at the moment anyway, and of course I haven’t adjusted to warmer weather yet.  Tomorrow is supposed to be warm as well, and then it’ll be a little cooler again.

I have accomplished laundry, but not much else yet today apart from putting together a review.  Will go for a very sedate walk in a bit, though I really don’t feel like it.  I didn’t sleep well last night, so I’m hoping that I’ll get better sleep tonight.  Thankfully we don’t have a busy weekend this weekend (apart from my baby shower on Sunday) so I should be able to get some decent rest in and be back in the word mines next week.
