Here is a little hint for those of you who might be freelancers or looking to start freelancing yourselves. Always give yourself a couple more days than you think you will need when your client asks for an ETA on a project. Not only will you be able to use these extra days for editing or whatever, you will also be panic free when you get stuck in one of those "hard to focus" days that just will not allow themselves to be pushed through. If it weren't for these extra days I give myself I would be in a mad MAD panic right now trying to finish a project. Instead I feel calm knowing that I still have a few days left and that letting today become a "mad slack" day (mad is my new favorite adjective, can you tell?) isn't the worst thing I could have done to my schedule.
Between Will being out of town for the weekend, my house being unnaturally quiet and stupid stupid hormones, today has been one of those days when I can't seem to focus on anything for more than a few minutes. I slept in this morning (didn't get to bed until 2 AM) and even though I woke up eight hours ago? I honestly can't tell you, beyond taking a shower and paying our rent, what I have done with my day. I know there has been some crocheting, some eating and West Wing on the TV but…its all a little bit blurry. And that is okay because I don't have anything due today!
Will's not being here is having an adverse effect on both Poppy and I. Poppy keeps wandering around calling for him while I am jumping at every tiny noise I hear. It was especially fun earlier today when the landscaping guys went all weed-whacker crazy right outside my windows and gave both my nerves and sinuses a good jangling. That said, I know Will is having a good time and that makes me happy.
Now I'm off to make some frozen pizza. A tip: For home baked pizza, the Red Baron thin and crispy individual pizzas are yumtastic.

So I think that I am officially addicted to LOST. It is 2:28 AM and I am watching the 2nd to last episode of Season 4. I’m tired and want to go to sleep, but I just have to keep finding out what happens next. LOL… My addiction is getting sad…. LOL
