I'd like another day just like this one, please.

This has been a very nice day.  I think I'll try to have another one just like it tomorrow.  I don't think I have too much that has to be done, just a few errands to run.  Other than those, I'm not planning on going anywhere.  I hope that this first day of December will be a model for how the rest of the month will be, not necessarily the weather, mind you, but just the peaceful, contentedness of the day. 

I  made homemade biscuits from scratch tonight with dinner, and each of us had to have one buttered hot right out of the oven before we even sat down to eat.  They were scrumptious!

My goals for this month are fairly simple.  I want to get caught up on journals for one thing, and I want to spend some of every morning writing.  I really neglected that during the past two months.  We have had so many little dragging illnesses.  But during the week as soon as the kids are off to school, I plan to spend a good hour or two writing.  On the weekends I may have to get creative to make the time, but I'll try.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

ooo, biscuits...can't make those.  they crumble in a hundred thousand bits of crust.  good luck with the writing.  i don't know which is best - the word count or page count.   i think i'll go for word count. by the way, have you heard of a program called Write This?  I have it on my computer.  It generates a topic and other elements for a story, and it gives you either a 10 or a 30 minute time limit, your choice.  I love it!  Once i get started, it's hard to stop at 30 minutes.  so you keep writing and writing...

I'm glad that this month of chaos started out well for you. I think that doing something that brings peace of mind like writing is a very good goal to have. It is always a good idea to give yourself a little bit of each day. My Regards, Bill.
