Wow, has it really been a week since I posted? The days flew by. I had several things going on in Chez Harris, plus I have to write about that sexy Spanish magnate. Which I have been doing!
The story is coming along quite nicely thus far. It's fun to write about a strong emotional conflict without a gun or dead body in sight. 🙂 But I still need to finish the revisions on HOT PURSUIT. *sigh* There aren't enough hours in the day sometimes!
Is it really only 3 months until National? My SF diet is not going so well. Must get busy on that. I've been using my treadmill, but it'd help if I could cut out the Chinese takeout. And the pizza and wings. I blame the hubby for those. 🙂
But I have no choice. The dress is bought, the matching purse is found, and I MUST appear with them on RITA/GH night. So, in between writing about sexy Spaniards and sizzling Spec Ops guys, I need to lose fifteen pounds. Piece of cake, right?
How's your week going? Accomplishing any of the goals you set for yourself? Lost any pounds? Done any conference clothes shopping yet? Wrote anything new?
*Not really, but I'm blonde and I'm multi-tasking this week.
Hi Lynn!
Thanks for your reply!
What I want to know is can you hold a camera in one hand and a glass of champagne in the other so that we can all see your pics of the big night?
Nikki
Not doing well. I lost the challenge to Kira. I’m still 15-20 pounds heavier than I want to be to fit in most my good clothes. I have written 75 pages in the last two weeks, but still…sigh.
And don’t worry about the camera. One of us will take the pictures while you pose in all your glory.
Nikki: LOL, I didn’t think about a camera. I’m just worried about getting into that dress! 🙂 Oh, it’s a long ugly road ahead!
SP: You LOST? But I’ve been assured you are the kick*ss queen when it comes to challenges! Still, 75 pages, that’s nothing to sneeze at! I thought I wrote fast, but not that fast. Sheesh. I once wrote 115 pages in a week, which was smokin’ for me, but that’s a record I’ve not come close to hitting again. 🙂
Hugs on the pounds. I’m with you. I’m down to a handful of outfits and I refuse to buy anything else until I drop at least 5 lbs. :/
Well, I didn’t think about the fact that a week into the challenge I would be leaving town two weekends in a row and unable to write. I wasn’t able to catch up once she got a lead. Oh well, I get a pedicure either way.
I’ll start looking for clothes in June. Then I will know which way the pounds have gone – up, down, or the same. Then I will worry about what to wear. No sense in it with 2+ months still left to go.
Hi Smarty Pants!
Thanks for holding the camera!
🙂 Nikki
P.S. 75 pages is awesome I’d be boasting if I were you 🙂
My to do list is depressing me…not even I can multi-task to that extent. And I’m not even a blonde (at least not now. I have been in the past, and may be again sometime in the future…).
And the poundage? Please. I’m wondering where to get a tapeworm…
And we’ll have LOTS of pictures when Lynn wins!!
Have fun… (cheering)
Cyn
ROFL! A tapeworm. You are too much. 🙂
SP: I hear ya. Shopping is being put off until laaaater. My scale is not being kind lately.
Thanks, Cyn! 🙂
