Wasted Time?

I wish I could look back on Sunday and claim accomplishment. I wish I could state that I rewrote the story that's been giving me such problems in the revision stage. Or that I had started my detailed outline for my novel. Or that I had even seriously read books (although I certainly was reading for much of the day), or that I had disinfected my shower because that also was on my mental list of things to do. But no. As I look back on my Sunday, I did very little.


DH is in a lot of pain, not sleeping well, and basically moping around. We had breakfast out and then picked up a RedBox copy of Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol. After determining when the baseball game would be broadcast, we plugged the video in and watched it. The movie was actually pretty good, but we HATED his IMF team. They were so incompetent and just rather hopeless. It was the precision that used to make Mission Impossible really work. This team was anything but and frankly, Tom Cruise's character deserved a more effective team. But it was very entertaining and I enjoyed it. We ended the day watching Tom Sellek's newest Jesse Stone on TV. Like I said - I didn't accomplish a lot :-)


A good book can capture and embrace you. Loved this pic! 

 The rest of the day was spent trying to make poor DH comfortable while he tried to get a bit of sleep. I worked a bit on the computer but accomplished absolutely nothing, and finished Traitor's Moon by Lynn Flewelling. Now I have started the fourth book, Shadows Return. I have been pouring through these books, just loving her main characters, Seregil and Alec. They work well together and make a great couple as well. If you are looking for a good read, I recommend starting her Nightrunner series with Luck in the Shadows. You too may be hooked.
