A break for
me last night and a bit of wine before bed. I was in bed by 2;30am listening to the last bit of Coast. Topic: Crop Circles. It was actually pretty good and then I past out. I slept until 5:50am. That’s almost 3 hrs. I did the cbi thing. I went back to bed about 6:20am and slept until about 10am. Anne had left, so I figured she went to take the pension forms in. I slept for another hour and got up shortly after 11am. I figured I got at least 8 hrs sleep.
Today, I turn 55. I’m a senior when I turn 60 but I don’t feel like a senior. Still, turning 55 I guess is some sort of milestone.
Having my first coffee here and it looks like a nice day. Suns out about +21C out there Perfect. I watched the last bit of HGWT and The Rifleman. Love that show.
After midnight and up until I went to bed I did just over 1000 words. I’m going to try for 1000 words of fiction/day. That’s 365,000 words/year. Or about 3 novels at 100k each.
Tonight, I’m heading into work and putting in my 4 hour shift and home to watch wrestling. Not much going on for today. I would have liked to have gone out book shopping at the South side Chapters but what with the Fringe in the way and all, I’ll go next week after Daniel Boone and brunch.
Anyhow, that’s all for now.
