But one day they'll appreciate their mom's a writer. (hopefully)<br />Not that I have a choice.

But my horses whinny at me when I step outside, wondering if I'm ever going to ride them again, or untangle the dreadlocks from their manes. I'm a BAADD horse mommy :(<br /><br />My scrapbooking and costuming projects gather dust in the corners, along with all the piles of 'stuff' that seems to accumulate overnight.<br /><br />I wouldn't even eat right if it wasn't for my gem of a hubby.<br /><br />So, yeah, to the outsider, a writer looks like someone in the deepest depths of depression. And if they talk to us, and we bring up the characters living in our heads, I'm sure they think we're insane and need to be committed!<br /><br />Here's to insanity - I've never been happier!roh morgonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06823641709307631626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6961445666519156260.post-17048710697678182352010-11-07T12:15:54.829-06:002010-11-07T12:15:54.829-06:00lol confession - I wrote this post last night and ...lol confession - I wrote this post last night and for some reason thought I was losing an hour...till I woke up at what I thought was 7:30 this morning and realized it was only 6:30 and that I'd gained an hour LOL<br /><br />My apologies to the daylight savings people *but I'll be grouching at you come spring...just sayin'*Michelle McLeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08730366330276974943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6961445666519156260.post-42579271291154353322010-11-07T12:12:34.270-06:002010-11-07T12:12:34.270-06:00Hi Michelle - good to know that I'm not the on...Hi Michelle - good to know that I'm not the only one who leaves my daughter to dig through a mountain of clean clothes on the couch for an outfit! :) (which reminds me, I serioulsy need to do some laundry today...)<br /><br />Pretty new to your blog, so congrats on your upcoming book release! That's awesome!! Would love to see pics of that "cool swag".<br /><br />And an occupational hazard of an aspiring writer? Daydreaming.

(I've even accidentally written stuff down on invoices and such for the family business - I think my mil thought I was looney the time it was something about my MC batting her eyes.) Another one would be writer's rear. Not sure how to keep that one from happening, though. Also, we look at the time change a little differently, loving the fact that we get to sleep in and still technically wake up "early". ;)<br /><br />JessicaJessica L.
