I've already had my Thanksgiving column published, but here are a few other things that make me feel like a lucky girl, indeed.
- Writing, writing and writing. I was looking at a bit of downtime, and then two new assignments happened along. Both are music-related and will be fun to do.
- It's fireplace time! I came home from the 5:00 mass and Earl had the fire going in the living room. I guess cold weather isn't so bad if I can get cozy by the hearth.
- Sleep dost not leave me any more. I had a couple of weeks, there, where I wasn't sleeping well. I shut off the alarm this morning and snoozed for another hour. Not a problem.
- I'm connecting with lots of old friends. I just got in touch with my dearest friend from high school, who suggested we try to meet before things get too crazy with the holidays. She lives about 30 minutes from me -- amazing, considering we went to high school together in another state.
- Potpourri: workouts on the rowing machine and stairmaster with my favorite tunes on the iPod; pumpkin pie coming soon; a week off from teaching; Abby telling me she loved me tonight; figuring out a complex bass line on piano on the first try; thinking maybe I really do have a book in me, after all; hearing an amazing new piano talent and getting to write about him; lots of other stuff, but the fire is warm and I'm getting sleepy so that's enough for now.

Oh yes, I agree you definitely have a book in you. And I will be first in line at your book launch party. Well, behind Earl and your other family members... (I know when to defer...)
What a lovely list. I may cop the idea for the pity party known as my blog!
A book sounds lovely. We'll have to think of a sweet ghostwriter name until we know it's safe for all the secrets to be published.
Cue: pink panther music
