I started a new job this week, so my body clock is running a bit off; thus, I figured I might not be in the mood to do this post at four in the morning, which is why it's getting posted on Tuesday evening. It is ever so good to be able to say that I am no longer among the unemployed, so believe me, I'm not really complaining about the schedule -- it's just taking some getting used to.
Still reading from The Capablanca Variation, a novel by author Douglas Quinn. My WoW Weekly 100 Words blog hop share with you today is from Chapter 45:
"It seemed to take forever before the next morning's sunrise. Remei and Blair were ready to go but had to wair for Jennie, who wanted to take a bath in the river before they left. It was the third one she'd taken since they arrived at the compound.
"All the death and seeing you after...you know," she said to Blair. "This place makes me feel dirty and I can't seem to scrub it off."

ReplyDelete4 AMs get easier after a while - besides just ask Cynthia - - 4am is the witching hour! LOL
Being a night owl all my life, early mornings never get easier for me, but I'll muddle through because I must do.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new job, I envy you, they are a rarity these days. I actually wrote mine last night too but waited to post this morning. For some reason I am not seeing my updates as I should. Not sure what is going on there. *waves at Brenda* 4 am is surely something that is right, not sure what though :) I'm up getting started about then, some days it takes quite awhile to feel charged and ready to go. All I can say is if you have glass on your oven door, stay clear of it LOL
ReplyDeleteCynthia, this job was long awaited; I've been unemployed almost 2 years! Ohio sucks for jobs; well, I guess just about everywhere does these days. I'm off today and am SO enJOYin' waking up slowly and the flavor of cup after cup of coffee, LOL
