1. I'm out of town...The hubs had a work thing and he dragged along his family (meaning me and the kids). The kids are LOVING the pool, even my 2 yo, who hates baths.
2. I finished Froi of the Exiles (sequel to Finnikin of the Rock) and boy was that ending a doozy. I am way too impatient for the last in the trilogy. I have less than a year to go (by like a month).
3. I started running again and it is so nice. For some reason I get some great ideas and scenes while I'm in the work-out zone.
4. My oldest has one more week of school and then it's Vacay time. He's not too happy about the idea of having no school for 2 1/2 months...I'm sure things will change as he gets older.
5. It's Memorial Day weekend here in the states. Do you guys have anything fun planned out? I'll be hanging with the kids and the hubs in Washington.
Nothing much is going to be happening for me this Memorial Day. I WAS going to visit my sisters but they turned out to be cows. Such is the way of life! :P
ReplyDeleteAnywho, it's so cool to hear you're on vacation! I just realized, though, when I saw your comment on my blog that One Teen Story is an off branch of One Story. Do you write shorts, Prerna? I know you're on vacation, but still--- I like to spread awareness to ALL of my lovelies when I can.

Thanks for reading and ha! Kids these days! Definitely give him five years... or two...
Adieu,

I think I need to take up running again as well. Not just for great writing ideas but I sure would like to fit into my cuter jeans again!
ReplyDeleteNo big plans here. Just going to go through the house and get ready for a yard sale for next week or two.
I'm in WA too - central WA. :)

...hanging out in Washington DC? Or Washington state?
ReplyDelete...'cause I'm in Seattle right now for the weekend!
Okay, I had to plug 'Finnikin of the Rock' into Amazon to check it out... it was that good? Maybe I should add it to my already inflated Wish List (419 items)
Glad you're having a mini-vacation, even if it is tagging along :D
Yay for running! That really is my best brainstorming time. Have a wonderful weekend in Washington!
ReplyDeleteGood job with your running! I run too, and I have gotten some of my best ideas while exercising as well. By the way, I gave your blog an award, some come pick it up at my blog: katethenovelist.blogspot.com!
ReplyDeleteHave fun in Washington! It's really hot here this weekend. We went to the pool yesterday and my two year old loved it too. Yet sometimes he complains about baths as well! Strange things, toddlers.
ReplyDeleteDeserae- I've written a few short stories, but they're usually related to whatever project I'm working on at the moment as a way to get a more in depth look at certain characters.
ReplyDeleteLeslie- we were visiting the Tri-Cities, I'm hoping to make it to Seattle some day though!
Monkey- I adored Finnikin of the Rock, I hope you will too...whenever you get around to reading it. I still have at least 300 books on my TBR pile, that's what it feels like anyway.
Meredith- hope you have a great weekend, too!
Kate- Thanks! I'll have to go pick it up later!
Christine- It's been cold around here and thankfully we were in Washington for the most of it...I'm looking forward to more warm weather. Especially if there's a pool involved.
