It’s been a rough few days for me. I spent most of Wednesday night in the ER thinking I had appendicitis when I actually was severely dehydrated. That was a wake up call. I’m not a fan of plain water, but it looks like I will need to start drinking it. So I’ve been trying to add it into my daily routine. We’ll see how that goes.
I have finished the submission to the publisher – synopsis and first 3 chapters. I am waiting for a bit to see if there’s any other feedback on the most recent version of the synopsis I posted to the forum. I still have almost another week. I am not waiting till the last minute though. They are in the UK and go by BST, and I have no idea how that converts to our time, and I don’t want to miss it. So mid-week or so I’ll submit.
Next up is Changeling 4 revision. I’m wibbling a bit on the ending. I think I need another installment to wrap things up. So I need to leave a few things ambiguous. I’m pretty sure I know how it ends, though, so that’s progress.
What else? I’m giving some thought to what’s coming next. Fireborn, for sure. Getting my freebie set up with Mailchimp so I can get more subscribers to my newsletter. A Facebook ad for it, too.
After that…not really sure. Probably Covenant and Ever Touched. Something for my 8-minutes a day thing(if different). Survivor Sundays for sure.
That’s about it. 🙂
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html this site for translating time and dates between areas and countries – might help:) I’m with you on the water – don’t like the taste much – I won’t drink bottled for various reasons so left with tap which is a non drink really but I have to drink it otherwise get dehydrated too.
Must have been scary tho – take care of yourself and all best for this week:)
Thanks, Alberta! I’m not a tap water person either — been spoiled with filtered water. It was very scary, but I’m glad it wasn’t more serious. Take care of yourself too!
Hope you’re feeling better now. A caffeine free tea is always a good way to stay hydrated but without weird tap water taste. Despite everything, it sounds like you’re making good progress. 🙂
Amelia – Thank you! I’m not really a tea person, unfortunately, but I could certainly give that a try.:) I am feeling much better.
I hope you feel better. I’m not a fan of water either, but I like dehydration even less. Good luck with the submission.
Carenksr – I hear you on that! Thank you for the luck!
Ooh, scary. Glad you’re better now! Does tea count, I wonder, for water intake?
Hi denizb33! I’ve heard that tea counts, but I’m not a huge fan of tea. Drinking filtered water seems to be helping, so for now that’s what I’m doing. 🙂
Oh dear, that sounds like a scary time in the ER. Please do take care of yourself. You are too awesome to neglect! My suggestion for you is water flavorings (little bottles you squirt into water to give it flavor). There’s everything from natural ones to soda brand ones (my son likes Orange Crush).
With so much on your plate, you do need to take care of yourself. Drink lots & stay awesome!
Thanks, Gloria! I did buy a grape flavor when hubby and I went shopping on Friday. I’ve had them before, and they work well. 🙂
