Long time no blog...

And there are plenty of reasons why. Yikes! So much has been going on around here lately. There have been many changes in the Sfetsos household, and it was hard to find any extra time to add a post. Last week, I had an impossible deadline to complete within 48 hours. I got it done, …

Well...

This week started out with my daughter still at home, and a little last-minute tweaking on the edit I completed last week. But when Tuesday came around, it was time for my daughter to go back to school. I spent most of that day sitting on the couch reading. It was nice, though a litt…

Is it the weekend already?

I have to slot things into my day to make sure I maximise my time. And that's exactly what I've been doing this week, which is even harder when your child is on school holidays. Still, she's eleven (turning twelve later this year) and very understanding, even supportive. S…

It's edit time!

Yep. It is. And that means I'm spending just about every moment I have during the day on this novel edit. It's not as easy as it sounds because I've still got my daughter at home with me--on school holidays--so I still have to find some sort of balance. I got stuck into it…

Wow, it's SO early

So, why am I blogging this early? Hubby went into work super early this morning, so I've been up for almost two hours already. And I thought I'd squeeze in a blog entry now, before the day really starts and I lose track of time. I seem to be doing that a lot lately. The e…

Hey!

<--- This is another picture my daughter made on her iPad. It's another cutie, I reckon. ;) Well, the first day of the school holidays went well. We went for a lovely walk by the river in the morning. It was a little cold, but once we got a nice pace going it wasn't too…

Happy New Month!

This lovely pic was made by my daughter on her iPad. It's supposed to be our kitty. So cute! Well, it's now the beginning of July--which means my birthday is less than a week away--and winter's in full swing. It's no secret that I don't like this season, but if we…
