10 Things I Did to Avoid Writing

Ten Things I Did to Avoid Writing.

I am editing book two of Ten Kids, Two Lovebirds, and a Singing Mermaid.

Laziness has struck. These are the ten things I did to avoid working.

1. Leroy the Cat and I went on a walk. Yes, I walk Leroy. He likes it. We stroll down one street, back home, then we go down another street. It’s very exciting for him. See? You can tell he’s excited.

2. I stepped on the scale to see how much I weigh. That was a shocker. I got off and on again, off and on and the same mean, terrible number kept coming up. I told the scale it was “total crap,” and a “liar.” No wonder none of my pants fit. Perhaps I will not have cookies for the next two years.

3. I ran in the woods. Slowly. I hurt my dang knee again. I ran along a river and the next morning it felt like a little elf snuck in and mercilessly shoved a spike into it. So it was more of an awkward limp-run. I felt like an old, creaking woman. A woman was running very slowly. She passed me.
