• I got my current YA WIP up to 22,153 words. Holla at your girl.

• I'm taking pilates reformer lessons 2 X's a week. My core is strengthening on a bi-weekly basis. Just thought you'd like to know.

• My sister, brother-in-law and their angel of a child, Scarlett Jane come home from Australia for a three week visit in 53 days. That translates to LESS THAN TWO MONTHS for anyone not paying attention. I'm a wee bit excited about this.
