Whoopee!

As in "big deal, it's summer. " My air conditioner has been running steady for weeks and weeks and I was happy I didn't need it as soon as usual this year. It's up to 110 this week in Phoenix, usual weather for this time of year. At least in a couple of weeks our monsoon should start and we'll get rain once in awhlie.

I feel a little trapped in the house lately. I won't get to go to the big ATPo meet, and Cheryl has been very busy lately, so I haven't had seeing her to look forward to. I still get out every week, but what with saving money for a new car next year, my budget is a little pinched. I don't do a lot when I do get out. Sigh.

This morning, I finally got around to working on my new novel as I've been promising dub. About the beginning of the year I had a lot of enthusiasm for it. but I've hit a spot where I'm thinking "Is this any good?" And the answer in my head isn't very encouraging.
