Good Afternoon

I've had a productive day today. I started editing Freedom's Cry yesterday, planning on 5 chapters a day. Today I did 6 so far, so I have 11 chapters edited, revised, and descriptions added where necessary. So far I've added over 300 words to the text. That is with the combination of deleting necessary text, changing, and adding to, to make it better. I'm having a hard time putting the story away to come here. So far in 11 chapters there hasn't been a single typo. Contraction errors and missing commas, but that's it. No, there aren't any contractions in this historical series as contractions didn't come into being until I was in the third grade. None were used in the 1700's, the date of this series.
I also had my chiropractic appointment this afternoon, and just got home from that. He said he doesn't need to see me anymore. I'm doing great.
I think so too.
I'm still having trouble with my phone number. I got an e-mail from AT&T telling me my account was activated instead of canceled with a potential first bill indicated. Yes, I was on the phone to them immediately. I also contacted Spectrum again. They are still working to retrieve my phone number and told me I should have it back by the end of the week, at which time I can call AT&T and have them cancel my account, not activate it. What a mess and headache. Oh well, they are working on it, and I need to trust it will all work itself out.
I also spent a short time on my game this morning, and I'm done on there until much later tonight. Now, I'm here interacting with all of you and looking forward to what you have been up to today.
It is a beautiful day out. I put a jacket on to go to the chiropractor, which I removed before getting in the car. I have since opened my living room window. The sun has been in and out, and there are clouds now as I understand from what I heard at the chiropractor office, we're in for storms tomorrow.
My tree out front is in full bloom - leaves popping out all over, soon it will be in full summer glory. Maintenance has already mowed the lawn a couple days ago, so I'm going to guess winter is done this year.
I also did not make it to the pool this morning. I've had bad charlie horses yesterday and last night again. That is not a good swimming combination. It's been better today, so I'm hoping to be back in the water tomorrow.
That's my news, looking forward to yours. Thanks for reading.

I don't know why it's called that. I've never called it anything else.

Thank you. I'm in my favorite phase of writing - editing and revision. I'll also be checking and rechecking all my facts during this phase. I already did so with one word I thought I had checked out before, and found it wasn't used in that time period.
