As of today I have moved from the world of being a
working girl (not the hooker-kind) to a stay at home mother and writer.
The weeks leading up to this day were a big blur. I
started preparing myself by writing down goals to achieve, such as how many
words to write a day and where I’m going to be in three years, and by cleaning
out my desk at work. I didn’t know I had at least three full meals in my
working space and countless snacks hiding in the refrigerator.
But, I’m ready. I’ve been ready for a long time.
There were always too many excuses why I couldn’t write every day. One of the
big ones: I like to sleep when my toddler sleeps. There were plenty of days I
went to work after writing for hours, taking my daughter to the potty between
2:42a-3:48a every night, and then getting no more than three hours of sleep. Can
you imagine the bitch I turned into at work after nights like those? My
co-workers can, but I still managed to be the weird quiet one in the office. I
was cool with that.
So! On to the writing. This is going to be fun.
That is all.
