MORE? Exercise 3x week. Quilt. Continue balance in all things as we visit doctors, babysit, and (hopefully) write. Continue removing clutter online and focus this week -- the kitchen!

Why not stop by the other ROW80 writers to give them an encouraging word?
You've had a productive week! How lovely to be able to listen and see the new little one! Amazing! All the best in the week ahead.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the upcoming grandbaby! Looks like you had a great week--keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy this past week! Well done. :) Great news about the cover for your next book, too.
ReplyDeleteAnd how exciting about the little grandkid. It's the most amazing thing to be able to see them moving on the screen and to hear the heartbeat.
Have a good week.
And thank you for the headsup about finding cover designers on fiverr.com :)
DeleteGosh, I love babies. Thanks for sharing the little heart about to claim yours! =)
ReplyDeleteAs a girl, I read Sue Monk Kidd in Guideposts magazine, and loved her writing. A few years ago, I rediscovered her through Dance of the Dissident Daughter. Since, I've read The Secret Life of Bees and The Mermaid Chair (another mermaid).
I didn't know about this one, but I'm now intrigued. Thank you!
You're moving forward in several ways. Brava!
Someday, I will get myself to a place where I can feel I've got the creativity and acuity to indulge my passion fro quilting. Until then, your mentions of it make me happy. =)
Looking forward to seeing the new book cover. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the steady progress on both editing and new words! I have a hard time doing both at once -- I usually have switch back and forth between the two.
And yay for the granddaughter!
Congrats on the upcoming baby. I remember hearing those heartbeats. Such a lovely sound.
ReplyDeletesounds like you've been making good progress too. :)
