Okay, I would delete the last post but too many people read it. In fact, I was six people away from breaking the 200 reader mark today! How exciting. I’m so curious about all these people who cruise through here… <g>
But, my face is burning. I am sorry you picked a personal rant day to check me out. We usually do have fun here at the snark. In fact, look back a couple of posts to the current Scene From a Pic. Pull up the comments to read the first entry from Heather Harper . It simply blew me away. I even printed it out. 🙂
But, I also believe in sharing all of the good and bad in choosing writing as your career, life, calling–you name it. One reader called me painfully honest and well, I still believe that’s a good thing.
Yes, my day managed to get worse, but then, it got better. I’m back to my normally upbeat self. I love my children like nothing in this world and we’ll work through all this. I’ll find something to make my son see how important schoolwork is. Today might have helped when his teacher sat him down and explained failure to him. Poor kid looked shocked when he got home. He just thought he could scrape by and go on to the next grade.
But… tonight, while he’s been sitting here next to me catching up on the two months of work his teacher so graciously let us work on over the weekend, I’ve managed to kick out 3000 words.
I freaking made my word count!
My son and I are sitting together, both working. No music or TV and when he needs help, I stop and show him that mommies do know something about verbs, nouns and adjectives. heh heh He thinks it’s special to sit next to me while we both work. Looks like a new tradition has begun.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
