So I survived that crazy week. It went faster than I expected, and the carnival was probably the easiest one I've EVER worked. I was at the "dance" and hardly anyone came in. I was bored but that was okay. Better than being stressed. And both parties were a blast, but I'm not as quick on the recovery as I used to be! And who did I hang out with? My much younger brother and cousins!

I've signed up for NaNoWriMo to write my 7th Boom Town novel. So I have some ideas but not in a sequence. Gulp. I have some work to do!

1. Write—doing Nanowrimo
2. Write blog post
3. Set up preorder for Blame it on the Texas Stroll
4. Find new cover for STTA
5. upload pictures for Donors Choose thank you
6. Take out ads
7. Sew rice bags

Wow, I haven't blogged since September?? What happened? I know the week before last I was at the beach, and last week I forgot. ANYWAY, been busy, you know! I finished the 6th Boom Town book and am revising. I am hoping for a late November release. I also have the rights back to Beneath the Surface so I need to format that. Also I've been sewing and cross stitching, and, you know, teaching. 

This week will be crazy at school. Monday and Tuesday will be normal, but Wednesday the kids get out early and we have inservice, Thursday is our carnival and Friday I'll start a new art rotation with a new group of kids. 

So, this week:

1. School carnival
2. TWO Halloween parties, one at each brother’s house
3. Look for new covers for STTA and Smoke
4. Write blog post
5. Revisions
6. Sew lavender sachets
