Laid Back Sunday

I almost don't know what to do with myself with Thread of Evidence finished for the second time, and don't really want to get back to it right away again. I want to leave it until the first of the month. I already know two trouble spots with it that my mind has brought to my attention, so those areas will definitely be addressed with the third edit and revision.
I've gotten through the notifications a couple times now, and yes, did work on a book, but not one I've mentioned here before. It's also a finished novel, and one that will be published, most likely after Thread of Evidence. That one is historical fiction, set post Civil War called Where Eagles Soar. Seeing the page and word count on that one, I really thought it was longer than it is. It feels longer - to me anyway. I also watched a movie - taking it off my DVR - an old time favorite - Chitty, Chitty, Bang Bang. I recorded it back around Thanksgiving last year. As soon as I clear my DVR I'm canceling my cable service. I still have quite a few movies and episodes of programs to clear.
I was up at 2:30 this morning, and did take an early afternoon nap. I'll be going to bed in another hour and a half, so I can get up for the pool in the morning.
Spring and my oldest grandson, and grandchild's birthday is in two days. I know everyone in the northern hemisphere where winter has been totally weird and unpredictable, is looking forward to the first day of spring. Including me, even though I didn't get my two blizzards this year. Not even close. We did get some nasty ice storms though, and that's enough. No more of that thank you.
That was my Sunday. What was yours like? I hope you had a good day, and for those of you already facing the new day, I hope you have a good day. Thanks for reading.

Wow, you're on a roll with all your books. Way to go, and keep it up!
I'm ready for shorts and tanks, maybe even a dress or two, but still really want the cold and snow.
Went bowling and for ice cream after. Then relaxed watching movies til we picked up my brother and met my friend for the kids.

I agree, I still want the snow, but if it comes with ice, I'll pass. Thank you. I have many finished manuscripts, so it's a matter of working on one to get it ready also for publication.
Bowling sounds good. Are you going to Dairy Queen for the free ice cream cones tomorrow. I heard on the radio they will be serving up mini cones tomorrow the first day of spring.

@just4him yes, we always go to DQ and Ben & Jerry's for their free small cones. We even get 2-4 from DQ.

Sounds like you have some things coming up to keep you busy. I'm sure after a book is finished you may need some time to regroup.

@just4him ......Just a few days is enough. Just enough to move past it a bit.

@just4him - I've been working on a book to go with my baby-boomer-retirement blog. I have it pretty much finished, although I need to go through and do a little more editing. There is always something which can be made better!
