25,120: Did I Mention, Colds Suck?
Writing progress since Thursday has been practically non-existent. I’ve been largely unable to sit and focus on anything for any significant amount of time. I’m about 5k words short of where I should be by this point. Guess I’m not going to be taking any time off except for cooking on Thanksgiving Day itself.
I did go back and rewrite all my notes so I can read them, they’re in a logical order and basically to revisit with the story line itself. One part of me onders if I’m just freaking out because I’ve gotten this far along and good grief! I’m in uncharted territory while the rest of me cringes and shivers to try to get warm and hopes that my head doesn’t explode from the sinus pressure.
I’ve been living on Afrin and Advil, but they don’t alleviate all of the symptoms completely. The nasal spray does make it so I can breathe, but as you know, breathing in colder dry air brings its own pain.
The good news is the kids are feeling much better. The bad news is that they’re off school this week and DH came back from his trip still feeling miserable and he’s home from work today too.
I’m going to try to write some today, but I’m not going to push it.
Just tagging surfing my way around, to take a break from work and writting when I stumbled across your blog.
Hope your feeling better soon and good luck with your Nanowrimo
Cheer up, you are ahead of me.
Thanks, Randilin. I didn’t manage to get anything written yesterday, but I’ve gotten about 1500 words so far today. Anything at all is good today.
I’m feeling a little better, but breathing is still a chore. =(
No problem.. I got to know the feeling today, I spent most of it in bed and have only recently gotten up. My plan now is to hide in my bed with the laptop for the rest of the night and Word War in the IRC channel… Stop by it’s a good time
Thanks for the invite. We do similar all year round on Romance Divas. We use the live chat room there for challenges all the time. It’s great to know there’s someone else out there working against the same clock.
I ended up with 1,776 for today. I may come back later, but I’m gonna go nurse my head for a while.
I hope you’re feeling better soon! Stay warm and snuggly in bed! The laptop should help. 🙂
Thanks for the link, I’ve book marked it and plan to check it out in greater detail once I’ve finish my own Nano…
Warm and Snuggly was completely the way to go to get through the upset stomach 🙂
