Tomorrow, I'm Relaxing...

I'm taking tomorrow off.  It's a much needed break for the summer.  I haven't had a "break" since I went right into Maymester.  Still considering taking Monday off as well.  I'll decide later.

Gossip...

Worked on Gossip a little today.

Today... 1 Word... Rough

Today has been a rough day.  I broke the towel rack in my bathroom.  As I attempted to fix it, I hit my thumb with the hammer.  I missed up the wall because of the screws.  It’s hot, and I had to go back to the store to get a second set of items to fix it.  I’m sweating like crazy.  Went to three stores that didn’t have what I needed.  Finally found a fix.  My thumb is hurting.  I’m tired and hot.  My left thigh is cramping, and I don’t know why.  Plus, I have a headache.

I wanna go somewhere and take a nap for three days.

Got Some Work Done...

Today was rough, but I got some work done.  I wrote a chapter in Gossip.  It was good to write.  I'm hoping tomorrow is a better day for me.

Not Feeling Well...

Feeling under the weather.  Still trying to press through.  I may have to go take a 20-minute power nap.

Accountability..

I’ve been telling my aunt that I’m going to publish my book, Subtle Manipulations, one of these days.  So, this summer, I’ve decided, this is the summer/year to do it.

How it came about?
On the first Sunday service of the year, I went down and requested prayer to get my book published, so I can’t have the person who prayed for me have prayed for nothing, so, I’m doing it.
My aunt and brother want the book published, so I better get it done.
Since, writing is my way of freeing myself, first, then helping others, and that’s why I wrote this book, I gotta get it done.

Why this blog?
It’s a way of being accountable.  My girl, Mrs. Barree says you have to be accountable, so this is how I’m gonna do it.

I’m ready and inspired to get to work!

#NOEXCUSES

Summertime... Almost Here...

I'm getting ready for the summer.  I have lots of things going on, goals to meet, and writing to write.  I'll keep you posted here as a way of being accountable for completing my goals this summer.

Two more days... then I'm on break!
