Where has the time gone? The answer is simple - to the other house. I have been plastering and sanding and nail-punching and putting up architrave, picture rail and skirting boards, hour after hour, day after day. This is for several reasons.
- Firstly, in a bit over a week I will be sanding the floors, so the nail punching and puttying and plastering - amongst other things - needs to be done before then. We also wnat the first coat of painting to have been done by then too,
- Secondly, in a bit over half a month, the new kitchen will be installed, so the floors need to be sealed and the walls completely painted by then.
- Thirdly, in a little over five or six weeks, I want it on the market, so that means the interior needs to be finished, the outside painted, and the garden tidied.
- Fourthly, by Chrsitmas, I want the place sold!
I have also printed out the submission, and M. has taken it to post it. On the side ( and it has slowed down dramatically this week) I am red-inking chapter three of V., which is good (it is now an amalgum of what was chapters three and four). I want to cut out a fair bit from this chapter (8000 words?). So plenty is happening. I also got a first draft done of the third chapter of SU:MC1, which is good, although Catherine savaged it! (I can see her points though, but then again it was a very quick first draft!). I need to rework it. So much to do, by golly. However...
You've just got to do what you've got to do.
So time is flying, by gum, just look at it go. So I guess it is up to me to make sure that I have fun while it speeds by! Anyway, time is flying, what fun, so I better get and do what I've got to do.
