I've decided I will no longer focus on writing about writing on this blog. It's an exercise in futility (because most times I end up writing about something else), and a waste of words (because I know what I need to do about writing). I'm done dilly-dallying about how and when and where and why I should be doing it.

That said, I may be embarking on a new career of sorts.

My friend Joy (whose little boy turns one-year old today...Happy Birthday, Finn!) needs a child care provider. We will test my ability to watch and care for two little ones tomorrow.

While I am nervous (two mobile and active boys could = t-r-o-u-b-l-e), I am also hopeful and excited. It will be fun to have a playmate around for Alden, and essentially get paid to be a mom.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed, and my eyes open.
