#SoCS – Insanity Reigns

19 Comments

Well, I’ll give myself a pat on the back. This is two weeks in a row that I’ve missed my own prompt on the day it was supposed to be posted. My excuse this week is insanity.

It’s funny. I’ve been driving myself nuts with all the preparations and advertising and stuff for my book, and what have I been wishing for? Those nice, calm days when I was busy editing someone else’s work. Which is crazy for me, because normally I’m not happy unless I’m writing. Somehow I must know this, even when I’m not conscious of it and you wanna know how I know? Because I signed up for July’s NaNoWriMo camp.

Because I have nothing better to do. HA!

I’m totally rambling tonight. Can you tell? And I haven’t even been drinking. Not since the cup of coffee I had at dinner, at least. I did just put a bottle of white wine in the freezer so I can have some before bed though. Kind of insane, if you ask me.

I should probably rein in all this craziness. But that’s me. I can’t stop challenging myself and I have no idea why. It’s almost as though if I slow down, I’ll waste away to nothing. So I just keep piling it on. I may just explode one day. Though I should probably implode – less messy. And the last thing I need is more housework on top of everything else.

This post is brought to you by Stream of Consciousness Saturday on Sunday morning because I’m such a rebel. Click here for details: https://lindaghill.wordpress.com/2017/06/23/the-friday-reminder-and-prompt-for-socs-june-2417/

  1. I need a rest, too. I’ve been trying to hoard weekend time, I really have, but the go …
    I hope you get 3 days of calmly editing someone else’s work, and I sure hope the boys are at their most peaceful during that time. I dream with you. Now let’s get that wine out, k? 😛

  4. “As if I slow down I’ll waste away to nothing”. That’s what keeps me going too. Though my going is slowing down some now that I’m empty nesting.

  5. It sounds to me though as if you are enjoying all of this insanity, Linda. It kind of reminds me of one of my nan’s sayings that if you want something done, ask a busy person, You are definitely on a roll! 🙂
