Slacking

Summer has brought an end to any sort of schedule I may have had; between swim lessons, trips to the zoo, gardening and mowing lawn (the list goes on and on) my schedule is a thing of the past (at least until summer is done).  Also, my hubby has been underfoot a little more since we've had such rotten weather.  Lots of rain and ginormous hail and a tornado touched down in the near vicinity, needless to say, rain + the oil patch = no working, but I digress.

I had gotten in a pretty good groove of getting my daughters to bed and then working on my writing, whether it was on my WIP or revisions I was doing something writing geared 5-6 nights a week.
But the longer days are prolonging bedtime and the girls aren't going to bed as good as they were and my writing time is getting pushed later and later.  I'm a procrastinator by nature and once my schedule has been lost I'm screwed.

So last night I sat down at the computer and worked on my revisions for my finished project, I'm on chapter 6 and I've got my word count up to 52,000 words.  Hopefully by the time my writing group starts meeting again in September it will be done so I can get some feed back on the completed project.  I'm also excited to get back to my new book. 

Now to get over a fear of success (if there is such a thing) and send out some submissions.
