CARE AND FEEDING OF WRITERS

Oh, My Aching Back!!!

The bathroom remodel is well underway. Yippeee. But along with life’s lovelies comes a reality check–aching backs. Try necks, ankles, short-hairs? Well, maybe not that bad, but you name it, it’s sore.

Is this why we prolonged the remodel for so long?

Much as I love Carole King–it is way too late to stop this remodel and we WILL make it. Or rethink the pain involved in getting ‘her’ done!!! (Don’t you love that big kitty???)

Yes and no.

BATTLING MAN AND BEAST!

Anything worth having–even a stone and porcelain wonder palace–merits the struggle. The PAIN! Like the words we writers wrestle down, snag from the sky, and chip out of Moria’s mines, daring man and beast to bring you joy. Us, too. Never underestimate that sense of accomplishment? DIY therapy is addictive and handy. Especially when other duties require getting grout done right, quartz seated, pipes sealed just so, and carving custom baseboards. Hello! (The aches and pains brought on by my ergonomically challenged workstation don’t even compare.)

Zoro? Or A Mean Man with a Circular Saw???

SO, if you have any well wishes, prayers, or positive thoughts to spare, please, give it up for the BEST BIL EVER!!!! (Names are withheld to protect those with superhero capes and secret squirrel eye-wear. Or is that the mask of Zoro?)

Thank you to one and all–whatever your craft–who suffer the slings and arrows so we don’t have to!!

Write on!
