| Yes, this is how the site was SUPPOSED to look! |
So I'll punt and go with a canned look. And that will be okay. (She tells herself with a growl.) I'm frustrated that I wasted almost 12 hours on setting it up, though.
And that's where I started on this Wednesday ROW80 update. Frustrated. Not only because of my wasted time (a most valued commodity) but also because I've been constantly distracted with outside requests and issues. I haven't been able to write more than a blog article in days. And I'm burning to get to it! But thankfully, that's not where I finished this update - read on!
My WIP took an amazing turn last week, but I haven't had the opportunity to pursue it. So my writing goal hasn't been where I want it. But I have been doing some blog visiting - not as much as I wish. I have set up the new website pieces that I'll be opening sometime next month, though I'd like to be able to write more on them. And I got my exercise in this week and am eating right. (She says as she takes a bite of chocolate chunk cookie - yes, it IS sugar-free, but still.) Oh and I finally stopped procrastinating and turned in my contest piece. That's a win as well. So I guess there are more :) than :( or maybe that should be @**@.
For the rest of the week, I'd like to get ahead on blog articles again. Don't like this last minute stuff I've been doing. I truly hope to finish the changes that I'm making to my WIP so I can get back to the new story I've started. Too many scenes are running through my head.
Now here's the rest of the story. As I wrote this, I decided I couldn't leave me blog half-done. Yes, I'm ADD and stopped to make adjustments! I had to make it look somewhat professional. So I changed the layout with the intent to go with a plain design. Well the layout fell into my current background beautifully. I added my original header to an enlarged version of it and I LOVE it. I'm so please with the way it turned out. I know it's only just for now, but it makes me smile! Go visit my new space! It is http://marjilaine.wordpress.com. (A simple change.) I'll be switching permanently soon, so bookmark it!
This post started out in a nothing's-right, rain cloud, but by talking my way through my week, I easily found some things to be happy about. (Oh, and the Dear Boy's Rugby team won the Texas State Championship!) I guess I just needed to step out of the emotion and view the reality of what's really going on.
Where are you right now? On an upswing or down? If you're heading down, can you look for something good that you can grab hold of. Even small smiles can pull you out before you hit the dregs at the bottom of the tea cup.
Blessings!
