So strange- my wife and I went to movie and dinner (much needed break) with a gift card from her theater kids. I was unfrotunately a little disappointed with Alice in Wonderland.

Cool doorknob! Love that it's purple – my favorite! Sounds like the cottage you've moved into is really nice. Hope the rest of your unpacking goes quickly for you!

I love that doorknob!

This post made me smile — and think about what I'm happy about right now.

Thanks for the reminder Christina… Made me sit back and think and put down a quick list… Right now I love…

1. Last nights dinner of pure gluttonly – french fries, chicken wings and a pepperoni pizza from Papa John's.
2. My dogs – One of them had been ill and now seems better. They bring such joy and exasperation to my life
3. My Life – It packed with wonderful, warm, loving people. My work is something I enjoy. And above all I live it on my terms

Cheers
Freya

That's “due” to illness … I really need to stop typing and get some sleep!

Oh, my! I just re-read my post and am horrified that I had an improper use of your (instead you're)! I also had a “series of sick/injured kids” (one of which was actually serious), but not a “serious of sick/injured kids”. Both are perfect examples of losing your rhythm by working while tired and your kids are talking to you at the same time. It's kind of anal, but I even proof my facebook posts!

One of the reasons I AM a writer is because no other job would work around my family's health problems … 3 out of 4 of us have ongoing conditions and my two daughters are absent do to illness an average of 20 days a year each. There are times when I can't get anything done, and other times where I write like mad for several days straight … and that works for me.
