A Good Weekend

qosMy living room looks 150% better than it did on Friday morning.
My entryway has been cleaned out, with more old stuff having been donated to a thrift store.
My daughter did a great job with her math homework -- and with helping with the carpet project.
My Ex and I are talking about moving, and I'm starting to let myself dream big again about what I really want.
I am not going to be involved with my teacher's shamanic healing center, but the process of coming to that answer has helped me focus on my own primary vocational goal again: that of being a spiritual director/companion, and I'm investigating a reputable certificate program that will be more focused, take less time, and cost less than my current MA program.
And, I spent a couple of serious chunks of time working on those characters for my novel, and yesterday found the key to Reg Stanley. He actually turns up a couple of times earlier in the story -- or rather, he turned up once in the original version, and needs to be written into a couple of sequences where he would have been in the first place, had I known he existed -- so I've been returning to those episodes and writing them from his point of view, so I can engage the story from his perspective, instead of trying to push him into it as my plot puppet.
They hate it when I make them plot puppets.

And now I want a very long, hot soak to ease my sore muscles from all this productivity!
