I don't pretend to be who/what I'm not. I will be honest here unless I publish under the category "This could be news," which is 99% fiction and a wee bit sarcastic. ;-) I want readers who come here to have as much fun as I do. Not all subjects can be fun, but most can be funny if I do my job right ;-) My inner child is reflected in my logo and will change at a moment's notice.

Change in Prespective

~ JodiLea

Yesterday I had cataract surgery in my right eye. Today, my vision is unbalanced. My left eye is my “worse” eye according to my ophthalmologist, and now I know just how bad it really is. Since the right eye is now my “distance” eye, and the left will be my “close up” eye once the surgery is done on it in a couple weeks.

I have no depth perception at all now. I reach for something that is right there, but it isn’t. I don’t dare work on any sewing – especially using a rotary cutter!

I need to do some ironing, but that too may have to wait. NaNoWriMo has been suspended because I’ve given myself quite a headache just writing this post.
.
The 1-day follow-up appointment this morning will have a massive amount of questions for the doctor. I have no experience with eye surgery – oral surgery is my expertise – Ha!
I wish my fellow WriMo’s a productive day and I hope to be back on the job tomorrow 🙂

Monday’s Giggle

Oh Darn!  I wish our tour of Britain included this event. Hey, wait a minute – I didn’t know that Stonehenge was a clock.  Is this a joke?

November is… National Novel Writing Month

~ JodiLea

At first, I did not want to participate again.

I was going to blow it off.  I usually end up not finding enough time to accomplish anything. So most of November, I agonize over deadlines, word count, not finishing the draft, yada, yada, who needs that?!

This year I plan to work every day of November. Whether it’s writing new chapters, organizing my outline, doing research, proofreading – it doesn’t matter.  As long as I’m making progress toward my goal (finishing the darned thing), I’m going to relax and have fun doing it.  Well, ‘fun’, might be a little optimistic, but the point is to not become a nervous wreck.

I can hear the laughter as my loyal readers, who know me so well, ask themselves, “doesn’t she say that every year?”  You could look that up if you want to. I do say something every year and that’s all I know.

It is into the Second day of NaNo – no additional word count today(yet), but I’m working on my outline to double-check my chapters. Don’t tell anyone but I got lost.  Sheesh.  I need to figure out a couple things and hopefully write tonight.

Not going to do much blog writing in November, although, I may post an occasional teaser on the “The Novel” page…
