The Calm

Ahhh peace and quiet for just a moment. The baby is napping, my son is off with my parents, and I've a house that is still for once. So, instead of sitting to write I hop on here:lol: Actually, I'm getting ready to leave for work soon, and I don't wish to be so engrossed that I'm late for work. I've done that before, and 'sorry, I was lost in my writing' is not such a good excuse;)
Anyhow, things here are going well. One week and I'll be the proud new owner of a house and a mortgage payment:sick: I'm still happy, though, and I'm working on planning my wall colors. I think I've figured out the main level, and I've figured out my son's room. He wanted it red, so I've a selection of two or three that he can choose from. I can't decide what color to do my room. Not my bedroom, but my hobby room. It's all mine, and I don't have to worry over pleasing anyone else. The only problem is that I can't seem to decide which color to paint it. I can't decide if I want to go for something bright and cheery or something more pastel or muted that is more calming. Just can't decide, so maybe I'll flip a coin. The baby's room is going to be an issue, but I think I may have it mostly straightened out. I swear my head is spinning with color combinations at the moment, and I'm trying to keep in mind what Tom will like as well. I've no desire for him to hate everything.
My story is still progressing, in my head at least. Finding the time to pen it is becoming a bit difficult. All the more reason to be wishing the next few weeks away. I'll be in my own home again, with a new job, and (this sounds terrible I know) but the husband will be gone again for eight weeks. Eight weeks of nothing to worry over after the kids go to bed other than what suits my fancy. Tom doesn't mind me writing really, but he was gone at night when I really started to write a lot. Oh well, it will be an adjustment for us all.
Other than that, things are just going. Work sucks, but I think some of that has to do with knowing that I'm leaving. Add on the twenty other things I want, should, or need to do, and you have someone who just doesn't want to be there. I do get some of my best story planning done at work, but then I berate myself for having my head in the clouds. It seems to be there a lot lately. I hope all is going well for everyone else. I've been trying to stay caught up on blogs when I get the chance, but I am terribly behind.
Take Care,
Meg
