The Writing Office

I’ve got myself a place in the front yard where I can work now.  It is really nice to be able to work out in the yard rather than be cooped up in the house all of the time.  I set up the picnic table by the corner of the house near where the outside power outlet is, so I can set at it and work on my laptop.  I also fenced in the yard, so now the puppies can run and play out there and I can work and keep an eye on them while still focusing on what I am working on.  It is very very nice.

I just wish the 7 day forecast was not saying there is a chance of more snow. :-/ I’m sick of winter, let’s have some spring already.

My head was zoned out all day today, developing sinus headache that lingered at the ‘developing’ stage all day and night. I finally stressed out, snapping and yelling at people, then drank three Slim Fast just for the chocolate milk factor and am finally about to collapse into bed. Wonder if I can stay in bed all week? How about just all day tomorrow? Nah, yer right, never happen. Better get some sleep while I can.

I have some changes coming to The Writing Office.  I will be rearranging the site over the next few weeks to make it more of a working writer’s resource for what they need to know about writing - particularly from a home office.

Time to get to work on the taxes.  No, not next year’s taxes, although that is still a consideration, I am talking about working on this year’s taxes under the extension.  I filed an extension to give me a bit more time to sort things out, and it is a good thing I did because in the last two days of cleaning the office up from the other taxes I had done for people I have found three piles of receipts tucked away into nooks and crannies that I had not noticed before now.  I need to get them entered into my spreadsheet program and organized so they can be accounted for along with the rest of my business expenses for 2007.

I have also decided I am going to shift things around here at The Writing Office and move my blog off the main page and instead create a resource for writers to find out what they need to know about working - particularly from a home office.  So watch in the coming weeks for a complete rebuild of this website that will make it more focused for what I had in mind when I first started it.
