Finding Time to Procrastinate

It's funny how one day you can have all the energy to write and edit, and the next you will do just about anything to get away from writing and editing. I had a day like that today. Not that it was a total waste of time, but I didn't spend anytime at all on my current work/s.

No, I had a wonderful time screaming at my computer as I tried to put a website together for our horse stud. Why did I spend my time screaming? Because my computer was taking forever to load pictures. Talk about old man syndrome. Here's a picture of our baby that was born last week. Natans Showman, he's by a stallion one of our friends own SC Showdown. Showman was the first foal of the season, not a bad start. Now we are waiting on Gem our older mare to foal, she's over due. Than her sister Tips is due at the end of September.
Anyway if you would like to have a look at our webs site here's the link: http://www.natanpainthorses.com I still have some work to do to it, but it's not bad for the first day. Hubby is happy anyway, so that's a plus.
I'm heading off to bed, it's 3.30am and our Grandson is with us tonight, so I'll have to be up early. Tomorrow I'll put a few hours in on my writing, plus reading and writing reviews, drawing up interview questions, and more work on the website.
Bye for now.

When the Universe Fights Against Us

Yeap, that is just how I'm feeling at the moment. I had my week planned, edit in the morning, writing in the afternoon, simple right?

Not happening. Hubby is still home and looks set to be here for a while. He has a kidney stone which means a visit to hospital for him, no horse shows for a bit either. He really is i a lot of pain the poor man, so I'm hoping we can get him into hospital quick. Thank heavens we have private health cover. On top of that my grandson is not well either, so looks like I may have him for a few days while his parents work. What are grandparents for, if not to be called on in an emergency. My guess is I'll be play Monopoly this week, I'll get my butt kicked again. LOL.

So, at this stage my six to eight hours of writing time is looking to be about four or five tops. Because I still have the Valerie Parv Awards to finish reading, and critiques to do, plus at least two reviews. Not to worry, I'll get it all done.

Now that I've had my whinge, I'll go and do some writing. LOL.

Chat soon.
