Slow-Motion Sunday

Good news: my editor at Samhain has requested the full manuscript of my second 24-hour novel, One Night in Memphis, so I sent that off to her yesterday. Fingers crossed!

My poor 3-1/2 year old nephew is recovering from Kawasaki Disease...I never even heard of this before Friday, but I guess it's not that uncommon, especially in kids under 5. Luckily, he responded well to the drug treatment and is scheduled to go home from the hospital today. Still, a scary couple of days here.

###

Looks like we're going to be blessed with another gorgeous day here in the Northeast US, and I'm determined to spend as much of it outside as I possibly can. What about you? Any plans for the weekend?

Today's Unconscious Mutterings:

  1. Scrabble :: My grandmother - she and I used to play all the time, when I was a little girl.

  2. NyQuil :: A really good way to sleep...

  3. Roadtrip :: Best way to see the country

  4. Idiot :: The village _________

  5. Bandages :: Mummy

  6. Series :: All the good ones are starting up again on TV soon!

  7. Summer :: Almost over :(

  8. Prompt :: Writing...and I should use them more often than I do

  9. September :: Back to school

  10. Chicken :: Little

I echo Marianne's good luck wishes. And I'm also a Nyquil guy when I've got a bad cold, though that stuff will give you some seriously wicked dreams!
