Writer Unboxed

I’m over at Writer Unboxed today, blogging about finding the time to write with two little kids in the house. And sounding waaaay more together about it than I have felt this week! 2 sick kids + 1 sick husband + sleep deprivation + repairmen working on various construction projects around the house = chaos, pretty much. Although I guess in a way I’ve proved the point of my WU post, which is that even when life is craziest, the writing still can get done. My word count for this week isn’t exactly the highest it’s ever been–but it’s higher than zero, so I’ll take it!

And in other news, Vivi has her first tooth and is working on a second. And hasn’t even been cranky about it, which is great. Although I’m realizing that she is now just 3 months away from turning ONE YEAR OLD. Aaahhh, stop growing, I can’t stand it! Not really, of course. But I feel like that’s the eternal Catch-22 of motherhood–you long for your kids to be older, more self-sufficient, less prone to turning your house into a play-dough covered disaster zone and trying to teethe on the electrical cords. Then you look at their little chubby legs and toothless grins and curly pigtails–and you’d give anything to freeze them just the way they are.
