I don't know where to start with what life has been doing lately. All I can say is that it has been busy, and truthfully that's all I really want to say. I would love to escape the black hole I'm in at the moment, but it isn't going to happen until I've found another job. I'm still looking hard, but P&G has turned me down and basically said to not apply for any more positions at this time. Talk about a blow to the ego:( I'm still confidant, but in the meantime I need to focus on making my current situation work. I hate my job (well all the odd hours at least), and my home loan is having a couple of hiccups. I think they're strait now, but we'll see.

Anyway, off to more fun topics than how lousy things have been going. First :banana: I've two days off in a row. I don't know how it happened, but I'm loving it. I've today and tomorrow, and it is revitalizing me a bit. I've spent some time trying to work on a baby blanket, but I've also been trying to write. I've been working on another chapter of Kings Queens and Pawns, but I don't know when I'll have it finished. I've been trying to edit some of the earlier parts, but I think that I'll just leave it all till the end. Once everything is written then I can see about ironing out the difficult bits. I think I know where I'm going, but the story has been evolving in my head into other things. Now I'll just write and see where the story takes me. I'm almost curious to see if the end result is anything similar to the original plan. I think the overall theme will be similar, but the way it comes about isn't going to be what I had originally thought. Granted, the characters have taken on more life, and it is much harder to fit them into my original mold for the tale.

I'm hoping to make more time, not only for my writing, but for visiting here as well. I've made some friends here, and the truth is that I've missed my visits. I know I've little time for reading so the book club is out at the moment, but I would like to be around more than I am. The friendships and connections I've made here are invaluble to me, and they are not something that I wish to lose because everything else. The only really great news is that I think it is starting to wind down. I should have everthing for the loan complete in another week or so *fingers crossed* and I've been putting out two or three resumes every day or two. Once the house is going up and I have a job with fewer hours I'll have much more time. The biggest issue right now for time is that I work mostly at night and that was my Lit Net time. You are not all forgotten, though, and I can't wait to frequent here again soon.

Much Love,
Meg

P.S. I've another blog I want to post later, but I'm waiting to see what is reported in the news in the next couple of days before weighing in on the whole thing. If you've heard anything about the murder of a family in Mason, Ohio then you will have some idea of what is coming.
