it's a long slow windy road

since there has been some more or less dramatic change to my life (illness to keep it short), which is forcing me to stay at home for the next few months in order to deal with, i do have an exorbitant amount of time on my hands (dealing with it doesn't take up all that much of my day, even though i am trying very hard). so i thought, yet again, to best use this time doing something i have been meaning to do for ages - writing. not just a blog or notes or somesuch, but to actually make some real progress with that novel of mine that has been patiently waiting on my laptop. Every now and then i give it a quick glance, shake off the dust and remind me of what i have generated so far. And, like a good friend, it sits there, waiting, hoping for some tender loving care, whenever the urge strikes me.

well, i have decided to be a decidedly better friend to that dear friend of mine. the aim is completion. by christmas. no. really.

wish me luck

well well well...

there used to be a time when i was rather motivated to update this blog on a continuous basis, but somehow it seems i failed. my last entry was ages ago and i am not even inclined to look for an excuse. these things just happen. the sudden urge to maybe make another attempt at this arose after reading another friend's blog, which she maintains very regularly to keep us updated of her wonderful new life. admittedly, she has a lot more happening in her life at the moment than i do and possibly more interesting things to talk about (hello karin in lovely paris...)

but yes, maybe this is a good time to spread my thoughts into the ether again. we'll see.

so long
for now
