Updates

September is busy with school starting up. After my last post I went to our property out at Sundre to help clean up after the hail storm — painted a wall of the cabin and chopped some kindling while Don cut fallen logs into firewood. Last weekend, I went to visit my sister in Golden and help her tile her kitchen floor. She has just built a house and rented the one they live in — she has to move in a couple of weeks so whether her house is done or not, she needs to move. Having the kitchen done will make it liveable, even if the rest still needs work. It was a glorious weekend!

So, I’ve had a little break from writing, but back working on my short story today.

So, that’s one job done. It’s new, and I get it in 2 weeks, but at least now I can stop spending my time looking for a car. Today — back to the short story!

So, summer is over and I’m back to school. I love my work — I only wish I didn’t do sixty hours a week of it. And, this past weekend was a bit of a write-off because my car is a write-off. I didn’t post this earlier, but on the long weekend in August, a hail storm hit the quarter section where I was camping at a family reunion, and the back windshield of my car was smashed, as well as another window. The whole body is pockmarked, and even the front windshield was damaged, along with rear speakers, rear tail light, another window and an outside mirror. The shame is, the engine and frame, etc., all are fine, but the car will got to the wreckers anyway. So, I spent most of this weekend looking for a new car, instead of writing. Sigh.
But now I am working on a fantasy short story.
Ta-ta!
