Weekend Warriors

Sunday didn't turn out as expected. I wasn't able to write anything (bummer). But DH and I had a nice breakfast, his football team won (mine lost - boo hoo), and we cleaned the kitchen eating area. It really needed it and we accomplished a lot. Next weekend we'll be raking leaves, so I hope the weather will be warm.

My story has a performance of Saint Saens fabulous organ
Symphone No 3 in it. I was listening to it this morning while typing. 

I did finish the neckstrap of my beading projects, though. And I did get more than 2000 words done this morning, so I'm feeling happier about where I'm at right now. I suspect that a great deal of what I wrote will end up deleted when I edit, but that's not unexpected. It's the way I write.

I ended up ordering a Toshiba Satellite laptop. They threw in a 1TB
hard drive and an 8GB memory and I was able to swing the programs
I needed. It won't have my Photoshop on it until I get more funds, but
it will be able to do my editing and writing projects as well as other
tasks. I'm pretty happy with it. 

Being utterly frustrated with my inability to get my laptop to do much of anything anymore, I checked my finances and ordered a new Toshiba which I should have by mid-month. It's not everything I wanted in a new laptop, but it's really not bad. Once I have that, I can get rid of a bunch of crap from my old laptop and just keep it for working on my website (if I can ever get access to that again).

I'm working on the contemporary portion of my novel this year. My main character
in this part is a musician attending the Aspen Music School. It's been upgraded
quite a bit since I first roamed these grounds, but it's a totally magic place. 

Have a great Monday.
