It sounds like ...LOL I love the Grumpy Claus name.<br /><br />It sounds like a lot of us are busy and writing isn't our only priority. It would be nice, but that's not reality. With school back in session starting next week, I'm hoping to get my 9-3 writing time in. I know I won't really write for all those hours. More like 2-3 if I'm lucky since social media is a time suck.Meka Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04592225193233705022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3242138268331645687.post-76723441631874033742017-08-04T16:09:59.275-07:002017-08-04T16:09:59.275-07:00LOL, Sherry is so right.

Of my four children, only one didn't move back in at some point after leaving. At the moment none of them live here, but now we babysit four days a week. I've never followed Helen's suggestion of locking the door and bolting the windows. That might work.<br /><br />Of course, I wasn't usually the primary caregiver for my kids, but even being a dad means time and energy . . . and distractions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3242138268331645687.post-42556822874086846582017-08-04T09:51:32.361-07:002017-08-04T09:51:32.361-07:00I wish I could find housecleaning to be a useful t...I wish I could find housecleaning to be a useful time for mulling story ideas.

There's the house to clean, and social media to keep up with, and the turtle to wax...(all those "important" things that must be done before your mind is clear enough to write) I swear, half the job of writing for me is just getting myself in the chair and my hands on the keyboard!
