I've had better mornings. cattitude and I are both tense and fragile, but we had to deal with bills and a lease renewal. Assuming that we'll find work around here--if we leave town, breaking the lease here will be the least of our concerns, I think. But since we're tense and money is tight, paying bills is now fraught, instead of a routine "what's come in this week, where's my checkbook" as in good times.

The less said about politics the better.

But I did get through a first pass on the weird "Christian mothers" manuscript, fiddling with spelling and punctuation and wondering idly if putting the Holy Trinity in one's family tree just above Grandpa is considered blasphemy.

Nanowrimo, more sideways progress

Well, I got rid of the dog last night.

Today, I've written just over 1100 words, not counting entries in the "notes" file for possible later use. My characters have acquired and set up an answering machine, planned to bake pecan pie, and received a very weird message on said machine. roadnotes has mice--I have impossible messages from President Mondale [sic]. And I'm still not sure what those fish want.

After several hours of copyediting the book on Christian motherhood, this came as a welcome relief.
