A Work In Progress

Sometimes I sit and stare at the screen in front of me trying to figure out if an alliteration I just wrote should stay or go. Nine times out of ten, it goes.
You just had to know that didn't you?
For the past week, I've done nothing but give into my procrastinating ways. I've played games, watched TV, cleaned, did laundry, and just stared off into space. The writing: minimal. Why? Because I felt like it. I know, I know, I should be writing but I have so much to do and so little time to do it all, I'm feeling overwhelmed and when that happens, the writing suffers. But today, I've been good. I've written a decent number of words and then wrote myself into a corner. I got out of it but it did stump me for over an hour.
The child seems to be adjusting to high school well. So far I haven't any reasons to complain though I haven't gotten the password to the website where I can check his grades and make sure he's doing his homework. I should ask him about it because he needs to stay on top of things if he wants to be an MP in the Army in four years.
Other than that, I haven't done a single thing because I want to be lazy. I think after while, I'm going to do a few crosswords before I dive back into the WIP. I haven't done a crossword puzzle in quite sometime. That sounds like fun. I think I'll do that while I listen to Lightning Strikes Twice by Nelson

Have a good evening!
