I forgot to mention this in my previous post, but I’ll be posting weekly updates of how I’m doing, just like in November during NaNoWriMo.

Another busy day. I was actually wondering how much time I had left in the day for writing and leisure, checked the clock, and saw that it was 8:30 PM. I still managed to write more than yesterday, which is good.

Didn’t get a chance to write today. Busy with moving prep.
Overview
I think I severely underestimated how much work there is to do when you’re preparing to move. Even just talking to insurance agents and setting up utilities accounts is enough to leave me exhausted for the rest of the day – exhausted enough that I didn’t write for two whole days.
And I still don’t even have all the furniture I need! I thought that I’d be able to get caught up on the weekend, but I still don’t think I’ll be able write very much because I need to go shopping for furniture. Furniture shopping is the worst sort of shopping I can think of.
Anyway, I hope next week will be better than this one.
