river_kateToday I am at over 51,000 words on my novel and I know what I need to write to finish up the three timelines. Then I'm going to forget about it for the rest of this year.
It is sinking in that I am out from under a hellacious, sucking financial paperwork issue now that has oppressed me for the last three years.
My apartment is trashed enough that when I start working on it for the out-of-town-relatives visit next Saturday, it will really look like I've done something.
I am not much of a drinker but every now and then I take it up for awhile. These past few days, I've been putting either brandy or Bailey's Chocolate Mint in my coffee. This is so wonderful as I putter about the apartment. I relish getting up at 10:00 in the morning and having brandy and coffee. Decadent. And it seems to make up for some other things that I am lacking in my life. Of course, I won't be making a long-term habit of this; it would lessen the marvelous effect and become just a bad habit.
One of the two geraniums that I bought at the farmer's market three years ago finally has a small flower on it. It is kind of reddish in color and the appearance of it is making me feel somehow like a success and fortunate and like patience really does pay off sometimes.
