The Joy of Sleeping

It's a holiday today (Happy Birthday USA!) and I slept until 10:30 am. Whoa. Guess I was exhausted. I feel rested right now. There are various festivities today and a child to entertain and spend time with. We're going to the movies and then he has a party (I'll be working!) and then fireworks at my brother's.

Day before yesterday I deleted a boring chapter from Magellan's Witch and rewrote the boring beginning of another. As I was in bed trying to keep my eyes open while I was reading a book about Structure and Plot, this great idea popped into my head about what my heroine had done. It solves quite a few issues for me. So I had to notebook that because I was so tired I was afraid if I didn't I'd fall asleep and forget. The read through continues, but slowly because I've had to stop and fix several things.

Anyhoo, off to celebrate and spend time with family.
