wiseheartGood grief, I really wasn't here for almost 5 days? Where has the time gone? So much about being more consequent with my journal. Ah, well.
It was a busy week. I had to take mum to the optician (sp? - I mean the eye doctor), and since I was already there, I got my eyes checked as well. Apparently, they are all right fo an old hag of my age, which is a relief. I spend entirely too much time before the telly and the computer screen. And reading and writing. Even stitching at times.
Well, the telly problem is solved for a time - my satellite receiver died, and since it's linked with the DVD player somehow, I can't watch DVDs, either. Tried to switch the plugs and stuff, but I'm technically chalenged. Friendly Guy from the repair shop promised to come... eventually. We'll see.
So I put the time to good use and wrote down the synapsis to my TNG stories I plan to write. Also, since I German TV is re-running Babylon 5, I felt inspired to pick up "Kansasn 2" again, the B5-Voyage x-over that has been lying on ice for the last five years or so. No writing actually done yet, but a great deal of research, which is fun.
Among other things, I re-read all 16 chapters of "A Minbari Courtship", which is an excellent story.
Perhaps tomorrow I'll write a little, too.
School starts on Monday again, although without kids for a week. Sigh. I don't feel up to the challenge at all. Getting old and stuff.

Date: 2014-08-22 05:03 pm (UTC)Of course, this just had to happen when German TV re-runs TNG, Voyager and Babylon 5, all of which I could use as excellent inspiration.
But at least I've written down the synapsis of the first 8 chapters of "A Yellow Brick Road" and can start thinking about what should happen nest. After 5 years. *g*
