Hello sunshine...

...haven't seen you in a long time...
Actual sun this morning, after clouds and fog earlier. Which, of course, will wake up more tree sex. I was contemplating the windrows and sandbars of maple flowers on the pavement and hoping they signaled a respite, until I saw the flower spikes on the pines and spruces...
The sun and wind have backed in from New Brunswick, weather traveling from east to west for a change, so that New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Connecticut are probably still getting drowned. High time _they_ got the worst weather.
Of course, this means I get to mow the lawn.
And in writerly news, I reviewed and added a few words to XXVII this morning and printed it off. So I now have a full stack of manuscript on SIGNATURES, and can try to make it into something, well, like a coherent story in revisions. But as I have noted before, I have to write the thing to find out what the damned story actually _is_, so the first bits done may not fully mesh with the ending.
In non-writerly work, got a call from a long-time client yesterday (they of the 1850s renovation across the river) about doing a _new_ building fully designed for disability access (physical and developmental) apartments. A new building? What a concept!

Date: 2006-05-13 09:57 am (UTC)As a Massachusetts drownee: Pbbbbt. The Boston-area weatherfolks think it might stop raining sometime late next week. Or maybe not. Usually, when I see a northeast-to-southwest band of rain on the radar, that means it'll blow through relatively quickly. Not this time...
OTOH, I'm glad to hear that SIGNATURES has achieved first-draft-ness, that most necessary but not sufficient step towards my being able to grab a copy for my greedy little paws.
