I fulfilled my domestic duty today and cleaned my house - again. It has only been a week and a half...but it looked more like a year and a half! How does a house do that??? Anyway, while scrubbing, I pondered the incessant nature of such a task. De ja vu at its worse. And for what? So that in two days it will look the exact same! UGH. It is certainly one of the less rewarding of motherly endeavors, I will have to admit. I do feel a sense of accomplishment when the house smells of pine-sol and Murphy's Oil Soap...but it is rather daunting to undertake.
Later in the afternoon, I went to the movies with Laney and some other family members to see Race to Witch Mountain which was okay at best. Now, it is 10:27, I have a headache, and I am going to bed soon. Tomorrow, I am going to the gym to workout (started doing that again this week...feels great!), then I get to work on my book for a few hours. Last night, it had me up several different times, jotting notes that I did not want to elude me when the sun forced me out of bed. I changed a bit of the beginning - switched the order of things - and wrote just a few other ideas. I decided that the marriage that the character was running from was more of a back-story that did not need so much attention. It should stay more of a mystery to the reader and only will be revealed when the male character probes her for the source of her sadness.
Well, off to dream land...one of my favorite places to visit...
