ksmithWell, looks like we will be doing something about all the large-scale junk in the garage--Mom phoned a junk guy, who will be coming over this afternoon to give her an estimate for the hauling. If he proves reasonable and this works out, it will be such a relief. There are 2 refrigerators, an old upright organ, assorted chests of drawers, and a couple of broken-down exercise bikes--yes, I used them until the bearings wore out. There are old desks and chairs in the cellar. I've gotten pretty handy withthe 4-wheeled dolly over the last few months, but there are some things I just can't move on my own.
Still awaiting word about whether the Feds have accepted my e-filed return. If memory serves, I think TT was supposed to email me that they had received word, but in case what memory served up turned out to be a big zero, I will check tonight when I get home.
Still fiddling with the new Jani 5 Chapter 1, and the secondary POV. This character isn't what we would call normal, but I need to give the impression of obsession and not-quite-rightedness while avoiding the tumble into barking-madness. Also working out conversations between Jani and other characters--her Dad, Lucien, Niall, John. I often make notes of this dialogue with an eye toward using it in the book. Sometimes I do, but usually all it does is serve to align everyone's attitudes and help set the tone for relationships. There's a talk with her Dad that's going to play a part in this book, I think. She needs to realize at that point how much she's scaring people who care about her.
Jani had a difficult relationship with her parents, but she was too self-absorbed and intent on getting off Acadia to realize it. She tends to run over people--is that a surprise?
This conversation with her father is going to occur about halfway through the book, I think. It's going to be interesting.

Hmmph - I'll see what I can find out...
