It's been pretty hot most of the week, but today was the worst so far. It was 108 when I got off work with very high humidity and huge storm clouds hovering over the mountains.
We, of course, got no rain, though maybe they did in the mountains.
However, between everything that happened at work this week (had Trustee people back in today taking crap off our computers and generally getting in the way), not sleeping enough, and HEAT, I came home rather crabby. It seems like everything in the world has gotten on my nerves tonight...
INCLUDING WRITING. Which sucks.
So, I told myself I was hot and tired and crabby and everything could be fixed later and plodded on. I'm not a good judge tonight of the quality of what I wrote so, quite frankly, I won't judge it at all. :)
It's words and words are good, even if I didn't write as many as I have other nights. I wrote at my own speed so as not to stress myself any further or push myself into hating what I wrote. I've been extremely good for at least a month (maybe more) now about being positive, and I'm not going to blow it all now just cause I don't feel up to par. This means a lot to me.
So, I'm going to turn on the air (even though it freezes up) until I can fall asleep (my daughter will turn it off when she comes to bed), relax, and feel better tomorrow. Going to take my writing notebook and go out to "Mom time" breakfast in the morning and see what I've got left to write on Ancient Secrets, plot a little on the novel version of Beyond the Darkness, and come home to be productive tomorrow.
Yay for productive.
Then, in the afternoon, I'll probably take boys to see Fantastic Four, have movie hot dogs, and just generally relax, while daughter goes to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Ahhhhhh...sounds like a plan.
