Mmm pizza!

My friend and I went out of town to one of our favorite restaurants. They have great pizza. I got a small one while in the restaurant. Their small is pretty much a bit larger than a personal pizza so easy to eat in one go.  He got baked spaghetti which also looked great.  He even went back and ordered us both a small pizza to go. 🙂 Now I have lunch and dinner tomorrow. Yay! We also went to the Goodwill there. I got a few small things there. 🙂

Before we went, I got my daily NaNoWriMo writing done. I am at 18,686 words! 🙂 Tomorrow I am participating in the weekly write-in, so that will be fun. I like doing those. It’s fun to participate in a virtual write-in!

Sunday is for Starbucks

Well, when the Sunday falls on the first of the month it is!  I went to Starbucks to get my first of the month jolt start. I got a nice Peppermint white mocha and yes, it was delicious!  I finished Camp yesterday. The story has a lot more to it, so I’ll pick it back up in July for that Camp. As for now, I’m back to the work I was doing before Camp. It wasn’t as hard to get back into it as I was thinking. I meant to do a review of a lot of it last night and got caught up in another old story I wrote. Oops! Oh well, it didn’t affect my writing today, so that was good. I actually got a bit over 1800 words done on it, so I am pleased!

My regular Sunday chores are moving along nicely. I have my hair washed, my bed linen is in the washing machine. I need to get the laundry out from yesterday from the dryer so I can move the linens over.  I took the trash out and took the can to the street as it’s stuffed.  It’s a huge can, so I only have to actually put the can on the street once a month or so.  I am going to be putting away the laundry after I finish this post and get the bed linen in to dry. I want to do some work on my digital planner in GoodNotes.  DPCDigitals, my favorite shop for digital goodies dropped some cool things in the newsletter so I want to import them into GoodNotes and play a bit.  I just need to get the laundry sorted first and then I’m free to play a bit until I have to put the bed linens back on the bed. I’m trying to get things done earlier today so I’m not putting the linens back on the bed after 10 pm! 😛

A small thrift

My friend and I went to Goodwill today. It’s a bit far so we went to eat first at a place we like along the way.  I didn’t get a lot, but I did get a few things. I got another small ceramic jack o’ lantern, a cute retro mug, and a strap for an Apple pencil.  It is elastic with a ‘pocket’ to fit the pencil. I’m not sure I’ll use it, but it was just $2 so I bought it just in case. Not a huge haul, but not bad.  He works tomorrow but will be off until after the New Year so we may go on a thrift trip or two between now and then, or not. Who knows? I didn’t get to write today so I want to do that, but it’s a bit late. I think I’ll just get comfy and relax before bed.  hope to not have to leave the house again for a while. I do need to write and mail out pen pal letters. I hope to get those written soon so I can send my pen pals holiday cards.  There is one pen pal I haven’t heard from in quite a while, so I’ll send a card to them in hopes they are okay.   I also realized I hadn’t put my winner banner in the sidebar for this year’s NaNoWriMo so that is now up!

I did it again!

Yup, I haven’t posted since Saturday. Sorry about that, I meant to! Guess what happened on Sunday? I hit 50,000 words on NaNoWriMo. Yes, two days early! I still wrote yesterday and today and was able to bring it to a close. I’m pretty sure I’m done with my zombie ‘epic’ now.  I do need to write book three of my figure skating couple’s journey. Maybe for Camp in or next year’s NaNo. Tomorrow, I get to go back to the story I’ve been writing for over a year now. 🙂 I had an idea pop in my head recently that I may have mentioned.  I wrote out some of it just to get it out. Not sure where it’s going yet or if it’s going at all! lol, It’s pretty good though so I do want to use it. We’ll see how that goes!  I’m happy to have NaNoWriMo completed for yet another year. ^_^ OH! Also, I ordered myself a very nice present this weekend. I”ll update you on that when it comes.

Is this Thursday?

It sure doesn’t feel like a Thursday!  I had to check my computer to make sure it was Thursday! LOL!  I didn’t sleep well last night and even with a nap this afternoon I’m still sleepy.  I didn’t leave the house today but I did get some writing done. 🙂  I’ve been writing pretty much every day on my story.  I re-read the book I wrote for Camp NaNoWriMo over the last two nights.  It is the first book in a trilogy.  I wrote book two for this past NaNoWriMo.  I had forgotten some things I had written and I see some more things I need to fix.  I’ll get around to that eventually.  I am not sure if I’ll do book three for Camp this year or save it until November. I’m having a blast writing this other story, so I’ll see how it goes. 

Goodbye November and NaNoWrimo!

It's hard to believe that tomorrow is December! I wrote a bit more for NaNoWriMo today and made it to 55,007 words!  I was happy to get there, too!  I will start back on my other story tomorrow.  I'm going to re-read it tonight so I can get back into it.  

I went out to do my recycling today and decided to go to the grocery store while I was out.  I didn't plan to go when I left the house, but then I just decided, what the heck. I went and got my groceries.  I have plenty of good things to eat and I have a lot of snacks, too! :p. I love to snack.  I almost went to Starbucks while I was out, but then I remembered that tomorrow was the first and I always like to go on the first. I don't have any money on my card at the moment, but I have enough stars for a free drink. That is what I'll use tomorrow. I hope to load a few bucks onto my card for December.  Starbucks For Life starts tomorrow!  Wish me luck. :p

It rained here last night and it was pretty heavy at times.  We had a flood warning go out today.  I have a weather alert radio.  I have it so that alerts are off.  It went off today!  I wonder if this is why whoever donated it to Goodwill did so! lol. It's gone off like this several times.  Luckily never when I'm sleeping.  It's so annoying and yes I check every time and it is still turned to OFF! Argh. Silly radio!

Hello from Sunday!

I finished my book today! I need to go back over the last few day's work and check it out.  I may need to add a few more things in, but it's pretty well done. I am almost at 55,000 words!  I might just write a few more and make it 55,000.  That would be neat. I am sure I have 800 more words I can add to it.  

I got my usual Sunday stuff done today, bed linen washed, hair washed, etc.  I also washed a bunch of dishes and put away a load of laundry that was in the dryer from yesterday.  I meant to put them away last night but I was so tired last night I didn't even think about it.  I want to write on my story that I've had on semi-hold since the beginning of NaNo.  I also need to create the December habit tracker and the week's speak for the first week of December.  I will either do that tonight or tomorrow.  It's in my bujo to do today, but I might wait and do it tomorrow.  It depends on if I get on a roll while writing or not.

 

Thanksgiving and NaNoWriMo

I didn't go out to anyone's house for Thanksgiving this year.  I did do my tradition and drove down the main 'drag' in my city to see everything closed. I do this twice a year, Thanksgiving night and Christmas night.  It's just something I've been doing for years.  I did that and I came home and wrote 1000 more words for NaNoWriMo.  I am close to the end of this book, I still have some words to go.  It's supposed to be the summer session at the academy where my skaters go. It's late August now so it won't be much more.  I would like to write at least a little bit every day leading up to the 3oth as I want to get the update everyday badge! :P  I may or may not work on my other story tonight. I'm not sure. I'm really tired so I might just relax for a bit.  I've been doing more recovery work and I think I have just about 99.8% of my stuff back so I'm happy about that.  I just need to get a new hard drive cable, install that and clone my drive.  That is going to be fun. @_@;
