Legends of Windemere

Not a decent title, but I couldn’t think of anything else.  Just not in the mood to be very witty or even that social.  Still, I need to keep things moving and maybe this post will be a little cathartic.

I finished the edits on Book 13 and 2 of the 3 Charms of the Feykin blurbs.  Taking a break on the last one because I don’t want to copy the other two.  Sales have been going if I look at the number line, but not really if I look at the numbers.  So I’m not really sure where the sales are happening or which books unless I take a while to check each one.  I don’t have the patience and mood for that.  You know, there should be a rule that one doesn’t blog when in certain mental states.  Not angry though because entertaining rants can come from that.

The kid has 2 full days, 2 half-days, and then an hour of school over the course of the week and then a whole week off.  So I won’t be tackling any big projects.  To be honest, I don’t have the urge to do much.  I was thinking of outlining a future story during the ‘me’ times and then write a novel while he has summer school.  As it stands, I don’t really want to do anything.  Not even TV and we’re heading into a conversation that I shouldn’t have on here, so skip to next paragraph.

I’ve been putting a lot of attention on Twitter and was considering switching that up a little bit.  Instead of a tweet every 3 hours with retweets in-between, I pin a new tweet every morning and retweet throughout the day.  This takes some pressure off me to retweet between tweets.  The only downside is that it means my tweet won’t be in followers’ feeds for very long or get revivals.  Still, it doesn’t hurt to see how this goes.  Beats driving myself nuts on Hootsuite and I don’t have a day where I forget to tweet at all.

This week did see two big events for the kid.  He was chosen to read part of a poem during his school’s Flag Day celebration, which was taped and I put on my FB page.  It’s friends only though because I have family members who go berserk if I make anything with him public.  The other event was Thursday night when we went to the nearby Children’s Museum.  He had done some art at a workshop about De Kooning and all of the participants had their pieces put on the wall.  It was a lot of fun and he was very proud, so those events were good.  Though, he seemed a bit happier about getting new shoes that light up when he walks.

Honestly, I can’t think of any goals for the week.  Just not able to get the motivation and inspiration going.  Heck, I couldn’t even bother to search for a video and took my ‘not in the mood’ standby.  So, we’ll play it day by day.  Maybe I’ll work on an outline or maybe I’ll spend all week staring at the ceiling fan.  Only time will tell.
