This one went fast! Mostly dialogue between Scott/Parker and new OC, Mo (don’t know if she’s an agent, yet. Haven’t decided). Chat between Kenny and Parker. Chat between Grandma and Maru Soo. Chat between Penny and Addison. Then progress on the Franks front. Now I have act 27, scene 1 done. One of these days I’m going to chapter my things that way, in acts and scenes. Maybe Overtures would lend itself toward it. Amy P. came on and…
Was talking with TawnyAngel today and she asked an interesting question. She’s been watching the Thunderbirds episodes that BBC2 has been running as part of the 40th anniversary celebration, and she wondered how the Hood knew that International Rescue existed before Trapped In The Sky. I thought it was a good question, so I wrote a one-shot, under 1000 words, I think (1200 or so after I added my disclaimer and such) to answer the question. It’s posted at ff.net and…
Yep, anniversary day! Commemorating the day the hubby and I bound our lives together. I expect him home in about 20 minutes, then we’re going out for dinner, leaving the boys in the hands of their sister… and cousin. The Niece is here for the next couple of days. She woke me up this morning with her loud voice… I could have slept some more, y’know. Had a little convo with my bro; they are down to no cats and two…
Took a while and I had to rearrange the smaller bits some, but there’s a rescue in there and that took a while to flesh out. Got a great idea for Lou, too, and have to find a place to put it. It may end up in Masquerade in the next chapter or two, we’ll see. The White Winds will have to wait as I really feel on a roll with Masquerade and want to strike while the iron is…
Finally got it done. I actually was going to add a bit of rescue to the end of it, but I decided that it would work better in the beginning of the next chapter. I guess I should work on The White Winds next. I already have 50 reviews on it and it’s only 7 chapters so far. Most of the reviews are of the “great chapter, update soon” variety, but a few are of the more thoughtful type…
Went to the diabetic management follow-up seminar today and took the kids. They behaved themselves very well and even bragged on me to the others in the group when I went out to get my weight and waist measured and, most importantly, my hemoglobin A1C test. This is the test that measures your blood glucose levels over a three-month period and is very important in the management of diabetes. According to their scales, I lost 13.8 lbs. My goal was…
Later today, Tuesday, July 26, I will go for my second visit with the diabetes management team. They’re going to do a hemoglobin A1C test and we’ll see how far we got with my goals. Of course, for supper we went to IHOP and I had the Harvest Grain and Nut pancakes…. I do expect to have reached my goal as far as weight loss is concerned. But I’ve still got a ways to go when it comes to things…
I’m just waiting for Hobbeth to get online to beta it. There shouldn’t be much to tweak, I hope. I went back and read an earlier chapter and caught two spelling errors that I hadn’t seen before and used the export/edit function to correct them. Chapter six is well-started at IR:TNP; but we’ve got one writer on vacation, one just home from surgery, one with a blown up computer, and one moving to a new house. Three of these are…
Still haven’t buried poor Peter, though. And I’ve already written more words for this fic than for any other! Need to get started on chapter 23, where we WILL bury poor Peter Riordan, and maybe even have a rescue. Also need to get moving on The White Winds chapter 7, which has had a great start. More research is needed on cross-country running. Sigh. Started the new chapter at IR:TNP. Got to give Janet a push on it before…
My stomach has been upset for a while now and I’m not quite sure why. It could be the aspirin I’ve been taking for my feet, I suppose. They have been giving me a lot of trouble as there has been weather brewing that hadn’t come through until this afternoon, when we had a humdinger of a thunderstorm cell pass by. It was upset quite a bit last night and between it and my feet, I didn’t get to sleep…
