Shame On Me

Yeah, I know what you're thinking. "Slacker." Nine days with no post! Shame on me.

This week has been crazy. Getting caught up on my son's schoolwork. Extra extra-curricular classes, like a science class that requires us to drive out to the middle of nowhere, and Beastie 2's cupcake decorating class at which I forgot to take pictures. Shame on me again.

Also, a dear, sweet man in my Sunday School class passed away this week, and we attended his memorial service yesterday. A sad way to start off Valentine's Day, but I know he was smiling in Heaven listening to all the funny/silly stories being told about him. He was that kind of guy. Our class is going to feel his absence strongly.

But there's good news, too. My Work In Progress is so close to be done! Well,  first draft. Next is editing. Lots and lots and lots of editing. But I'm hoping to have it ready to shop to agents by mid-year. Yay!

Other than that, not much to report. So I will leave you with a day-after-Valentine's-Day limerick. We all know Twilight was the big romance story of the century....
She stared o’er the corpse, looking startled.
Its flesh curled from bone, burned to charcoal.
She said, book in hand,
“I don’t understand…
Shouldn’t the sun make him sparkle?”
Oh, shame on me again....

Busy, busy week! But that's a great limerick to crown it with. :D

Thanks! Limericks are the only poems I can write. :)

I hear you about busy! I think February is just a busy time for everybody. Grats on nearly being done with your next story!
