Well, it's been a few weeks. I got caught up in prepping for a Halloween game of Dungeons and Dragons. That's over with (for the most part), and now I'm on to National Novel Writing Month.
It's been a rough couple of days. I'm a little over 4000 words into it, and it seems to be going well. I had hoped to play catch up today (I missed yesterday) but had to watch my nephew, who is staying with my mother and I for the week while his dad has surgery (and his mom is of course out there with him). I'm sure tomorrow will be a rough day for writing too, as I work the late shift tomorrow night. I'm going to try and write a few hundred words before work, and a few hundred after. I should be at 5000 at this very moment, and I'm currently a 1000 short. Not terrible (not particularly daunting, just disappointed. I was hoping I would be a head at this point. I am finished with the first chapter though. I think i'll post the second chapter here when I finish. Maybe.
Oh well.
It's November. It's fall for real now. The weather has been cool, though not nasty. I hear that will soon change next week. I'm not looking forward to colder weather, this current weather is perfect too my tastes: not too hot, not too cold. Sunny, and beautiful days all around.
I have to close the store tomorrow night... and turn around to open it on Thursday. That's something I'm not happy about. Freight on Monday was nightmarish. There wasn't a lot of freight (only about 600 cases, which is peanuts) but there were about 15 pallets of holiday items (food that is) and we have no room for it. It's all been taken up with water and juice. Our frozen section is the same way, seven pallets of frozen, only room for three. We managed though. Fortunantly there is the bakery freezer and the meat department's freezer.

Ah work.

Began to organize my books today. Hoping to be done with it, or most of it by Sunday. We'll see. It's a daunting task, or at least it was. Not quite as bad as I thought. You would be surprised how much room three large piles of books take up. I think I'm going to get a bean bag chair now for my room. Now that there's room in my room for it.

Till next time.
