Busy Busy Busy

What a terribly busy time it has been! I note with regret that I last posted more than three weeks ago! Summer is never a good time for writing. The office is a hive of activity as holiday makers start making last minute plans! Of course this means that the company gets good business and employees get more work!

I shouldn't be complaining, really. Work keeps me occupied and pays for all the medicine I take. The occupation keeps me active although I can't say that the stress keeps me sane :)

I hope to put the finishing touches to the next part of the story. Yes, yes, I know that it's a story that I'd written several years ago but I still have to make sure that the HTML is done properly. If not, parts of the story disappear! The busy time meant that I code several lines every night before going to bed. It's a real struggle keeping awake, waiting for the computer to boot up and then trying to remember where I had stopped. Then, being the queer person that I am, I have to make sure that all [']s become [’]s and so on. There are times when a little voice tells me to stop being so fussy and just leave the [']s as they are. Of course, I remember being taught that when doing something, we must make sure to do it properly.

So expect memories-2 to be posted in a few days time.

Cheerio!

New Part

The new part in the Pellegrine Story - Memories is finished. It is actually the first part of the first story I wrote for the series three years ago. Wow! Time does fly.

I hope I will be able to hear from readers because I've posted my mail and this blog for readeers.

Summer Coming!

Work is increasing because of the coming summer. By turn, my colleagues will take their annual leave during this time. I'll take on most of their work because I don't exhaust my leave during the summer. I take short breaks periodically throughout the year. I am hoping that the summer will go quickly, though. I'm pretty much alone in my life and seeing one or two colleagues absent will set my mind off. I'll think about family. I'll think about loved ones. I'll think about the absence of a significant other. I'll get depressed. When I'm in that state, I can either write with abandon because I don't want to think about my situation, or I'll stare at the computer screen, wondering about the purpose of writing. Mood swings and extremes. A bane in any writer's life!
