A Busy Time... but Bookin' It!

It has been an incredibly busy and chaotic time for me the past few weeks. At work, the meetings and high-priority and last-minute work has piled on and piled up and can barely see the top of my desk anymore! My husband landed a wonderful new job and had a week off before he started and I shared this time as well with him to relax, celebrate and make a vacation out of it. It was really nice! Things are tapering off now, thank goodness, so hopefully I'll have more time to blog!

I've been trying to get my writing done, too. I had to do a lot of brain-dumping to get all my ideas for about 4-5 new books down on paper (or on disk rather!), but now I am back to working on my 2nd one, which I am really excited about. I have made some good progress this week on it, and am almost caught up with where I want to be on it.

So far, mostly rejection letters and one nibble (cross your fingers!) on The Chair Maker. I am sticking with it and keeping faith that it will be right for a publisher somewhere! A lot of heartfelt love and a LOT of work, research, and homework went into it, and I am staying positive because I know I have to keep going and be positive. Some people wait YEARS before being published. In the meantime, I've got so many wonderful ideas that I want to do, so ... pretty exciting —and busy — time for me right now!

On the BFL forefront, I am doing great! Although I had a mini-vacation last week and had two days of migraine splendor this week, I've eaten clean and done well. Dropped a few pounds and feel wonderful! Better yet, I have my husband motivated to do a 100% clean program and my sister giving BFL a try for two weeks. They've both dropped 4 pounds this week already :o) I am so happy that I've finally convinced them to try. It's taken years literally, but it meant so much to me to keep trying and be patient because BFL makes you feel SO GREAT and energetic, you cannot help but to share that! More when I can get back to it!
