I have a working title for the new paranormal: Shift. Hitting about 1,000 words per day. Haven't hit my goal yet today, but will get to it after this post. I had some icky dental work done last Thurs that has given me a whole new definition for the word uncomfortable. I admit the discomfort is distracting me a bit. I slept until 11:00 this morning. Good heavens. I woke up and most of the day was gone. I had errands to run, then I came home and played cards with my son for half an hour, then had to man a Fireworks booth from 1:30 to 3:00 in a location that's 20 minutes from home, that means 40 minutes driving. My day didn't get started until 4:30, for heaven's sake. I got my son an ice-cream maker for his birthday so we made kiwi ice cream (his choice!) but it didn't come out right. The chocolate ice cream we made was awesome. We all went into chocolate coma afterward. So after the kiwi ice cream disaster, I had to deal with some fall-out from the recent computer disaster, and I started getting a temp, so not only did I not feel very good, I spent some quality time imagining I was going to perish from infection even though they gave me penicillin, which I am taking faithfully. But the fever seems to be gone now. That's why I haven't hit target yet. But now I'm going to put on my jammies and work.
