Day 17: Gratitude Michigan Style
It’s been a long day of revisions. I’m finally through that process although not without a lot of gnashing of teeth and tears. I wish I could tell you I’m being dramatic, but Liz will testify–it was arduous. However, she was throwing around terms like drama queen and big baby. Tomorrow, will be a final run-through edit and then it goes back to my editor. Liz finished the rough draft of her Christmas Town story with very little teeth-gnashing and no tears at all. We also have to spend some time talking about our library presentation that’s coming on Sunday. We do think we should try to prepare something that’s at least mildly entertaining.
We treated ourselves to shampoos and blowouts to celebrate and wonder of wonders, have gone an entire day without wine. Just never got to it, I guess. We’ll probably fix that tomorrow. We ate supper at a cute place called the Paisley Pig Gastropub. Decent food and very nice server. Before supper, we made a quick trip to the public beach simply because I can’t imagine being in Grand Haven and not at least dipping my toes in Lake Michigan. It was amazing!
Gratitude for today:
Being able to put my toes in Lake Michigan
Spending time with Liz–we are so companionable!
Finishing revisions on Aidan and Holly’s book
Being pretty satisfied with the revisions on Aidan and Holly’s book
We still have one more full day here
