Well, today was the shortest day of the year, and it felt like it. I got nowhere near as much done as I’d hoped because it was also the day of running errands, like joining the throngs at Honeybaked Ham to get ye olde Christmas ham and braving the harried shoppers at Target to buy a case for my new laptop. But the good part about today is knowing that beginning tomorrow, the daylight hours start getting longer! (Insert happy dance here.)
Didn’t blog yesterday. Just got so busy with the revisions that I forgot until it was so late I was too tired to think. Found out today at lunch that one of my critique partners actually has a copy of The Runaway Pancake. How funny.
For the next book, I need help. I have a vague recollection of a book I read while I still lived with the folks, but I don’t remember hold old I was, what the title was or much about the plot other than there was a girl in it and I believe she time traveled back to Colonial Williamsburg. I remember really loving the story and from that moment being enamored of Colonial Williamsburg. Years later, I spent several days there with the hubby and his parents. I LOVED it, history nerd that I am. I’d love to go back someday, perhaps with the sis when her girls get a bit older. Does this vague book description sound familiar to anyone?

Oh boy–a new laptop! I bought a new one–wireless–about three months ago, and I love it. I still use the desktop for my day job, but all my writing is done on the laptop.
