Writing...
So I've started writing my first novel. I'm determined to finish it.
I'm in the outline stage and the part where I am constantly bouncing ideas off Jonathan. He's pretty good at helping me clarify the craziness in my head. I've come up with the basic story line (obviously, that's the first step). It's more in the genre of books Iike to read, fantasy that is. Not to the extreme that I read, but more like on the level of "this could possible happen, maybe..." It's really interesting, or at least to me.
Anyways, just thought I should put that out there. At least I'll be held accountable now because I said it outloud. I am going to start and finish a novel. not for anyone else, but just for me. Just so I can say I finally did it!! (que the Rocky Theme).
Well, that is about it. I sang on worship team, but sounded awful because my voice kept going out. Which isn't good when you are trying to sing something. I left early because I have too much to do around the house... and guess what??? I still have not done CRAP! I have no drive to get up and get done what needs to get done. But Jon said he'll help... I would rather him just do it all himself :)
Oh and Jedi STINKS!
On to my fave subject, Lyric. We are trying to start introducing the sippy cup on a prevelant basis. She is 10 1/2 months old. That's tminus 1 1/2 months till she is OFF the bottle! I'm nervous about it for some reason. Not that she won't do good, she'll be fine. She prefers the sippy cup, I think she feels bigger, but that i won't feed her enough! I know. Silly huh. But when I'm home, I eat so iratically. Sometimes dinner is at 6 sometimes it is at 8. It doesn't really matter for her, because she has a bottle or baby food, but once we move her on up... she'll need to eat! What if she gets extra hungry during the day?? I guess that is when snack time comes in handy... but she only has 2 teeth, so it's hard to say we are just going to move her on to food when it's hard for her to chew things.
I guess it's good that we have 1 1/2 months to come up with a system.
I swear. She is seriously the most adorable baby on earth!
