Where did the time go?
Oh yeah...I was revising my manuscript. All 100,000+ words of it. Just finished it this past Wednesday. Had a request for a full from Liquid Silver Books on 3/19/06. So, had my CP go over what I was doing as far as changes.
I also found out that I'll be published by Freya's Bower through their Bites! line. I don't have an actual publish date, but I'm just beginning work on the 2 stories for the ebook. Needless to say, I've been busy the past couple of weeks.
Hubby is having some medical problems, so that's side-tracked me to some degree. Plus, I've taken up my line dancing again and hoping that it will help me lose the extra weight I've added through the winter. So far, I've lost 10 pounds. Still have a way to go, but all good things come in time.
Hubby and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary yesterday. My hero...sigh.
Going to make a trip to the cemetery today. My dad passed away 3 years ago today. I don't feel comfortable with not going.
Speaking of traveling...what the hell are oil companies trying to do to us? They have used this same tired excuse of shortage ... or weather damage ... or whatever to raise prices. You would think after 40 years of shortages and damages, they would have done something to alleviate the problems by now! If they were employed by any other industry, they'd all be looking for jobs by now. NO COMPANY would keep employees that didn't correct problems in a timely manner. It's greed...pure and simple. Sorry, but most Republicans - which has been proven under this administration for the past 7 years over and over again - think of their own gains. When is the minimum wage going to increase to keep up with rising costs. Higher gas prices don't stop at the pump! They trickle down into everything you buy, simply because higher prices at the pump means higher transport costs which always comes back to the consumer with higher prices in the stores. Even Wal-mart isn't lowering prices every day, anymore. Most of the items I buy there on a regular basis have increased anywhere from a few cents to a dollar!
Okay, I'm stepping off of my soap box and running out of the door to do errands so I can head out to the cemetery.
Have a great day! And to all the writers I know...have a wonderfully productive day!

Congratulations, Brenda! How very excited you must be! I love Freya's Bower.

P.S. From what I understand, the cost of oil per barrel has decreased, but the price has increased.
