Pondering...
Ok, since I have all this time on my hands with summer break, I've been thinking over a couple of things. First and foremost, I'm about fed up waiting on this short sale. I'm going to start carefully looking on some other, non-short sale homes...and in various areas here in Jacksonville. That scares the heck out of me, but considering we've had our first break in here at the apartment complex, I don't feel particularly safe (although this could happen anywhere I guess).
Secondly, and of much less importance, I've been reading through a reeeeally old set of books I wrote way back in my high school days. The writing is really immature, it needs a lot of updating and revamping...
...but I've come to the conclusion I really like the characters. I think in some way they are parts of myself, and I remember enjoying writing about them. And grammatical errors and immature plot lines and writing styles considered, I still like reading about them too. I just might re-outline the plot and start revamping the story on my computer. It'll take lots of work, but it'll keep me occupied for the summer since nothing else seems to be on my plate. Here's hoping moving will still be on the list of things to do this summer though. We'll see.

Wow. I haven't read that stuff in a *long* time. You always were a good writer. Let me know if you want me to edit anything. :)
Well, some of it needs some SERIOUS reworking and rewriting!!! Now that I kinda remember what I was writing about and have a basic plot line maybe I can actually outline what I'm going to write BEFORE I do it and it'll flow better. I might take you up on that editing!!!
