Busy Monday

Just call me busy, busy, busy. I got a shocker this morning at work because another co-worker turned in their resignation. I suspect their long commute and gas prices had more to do with their decision than employment security. I think many folks are rethinking their forty minute commutes due to the fuel prices. I’d like to but hell, I drive all over the damn county anyway and it isn’t for work.

Tonight B2 had a soccer game in another county. She caught a ride with another mom. Thank goodness for my “village”. B3 had softball practice and B4 had a baseball game. B4’s team won. Anyhow, I was home by 9pm and after wrapping up the evening chores, I was off to work on the next issue of The Scruffy Dog Review.

I have to build the site from scratch again, but thanks to Devon, it won’t take as long as it otherwise would. The old Website Design package I was using was clunky and slow. But with the new package it is moving along faster. The only drawback I see is that I can’t go online and do any changes at work. I have to do it all on my desktop. It’s going to look awesome though, if the Contributors Page doesn’t kill me first. Linking all of the websites is taking longer than I thought.

I waited all day for a call or an email from B4’s Principal regarding the letter I sent. I never received one, but a teacher who read it jokingly asked if I would come and teach writing. It was a nice compliment.

I got another request for a full from a big literary agent.  I’ll get it out to her tomorrow. I prefer to do these in the morning when I’m a bit more alert.

Well, it’s late and the alarm goes off pretty early around the Birch house. Goodnight!

The school should bring you in as a guest artist and pay you.

And congrats on the request for the full!
