I checked the bank balance this morning and saw that the day job salary had direct-deposited and thought 'wouldn't it be great if I got paid like this for writing?'

Staycation

So next week is my staycation, my week at home during which I hope to 1) get a metric sh*tload of writing done and 2) catch up on household chores that have fallen by the wayside these last few months. One big task I want to complete is the installation of gutter covers, some cheap screen-top jobbies that should keep the pine needles from filling the front gutter every week.

There are also many weeds to pull. Mulch to spread in the front and sideyard, on the other side of the fence from King of the Mulch-eaters. Dream accomplishment would be to disassemble King's old kennel, level the ground, and sow grass seed. But that's at the Nice To Have end of the wish list. Just getting the gutters flushed and covered will make me happy.

2000+ words a day on the wip would make me even happier.

Throwing in a few treats for myself over the course of the week, but will be concentrating on tasks at hand.

So. Fingers crossed that I don't get sick or throw out my back or anything. Fingers also crossed that the Boyz don't get sick or injure themselves running after a squirrel or anything. No power outages or OMG storms or anything else that could bring matters to a screeching halt. Just a nice, dull week during which much gets done.
