Your Update Link: Signs of Life – Part 2
Ugh. This day, lol. It was going well until I went to my niece’s birthday. My sister has a lot of friends who all apparently had twelve kids each, so the house was packed with small screaming children. I was counting down to the singing of Happy Birthday so I could nope out of there. We get everyone gathered around for the cake, and then we start looking for the birthday girl.
We search the entire house, the kids are sent on search teams — she’s nowhere. We start yelling her name. Nada.
The anxiety starts to set in — she’s the only kid we can’t find, and we start getting close to panicking —
And then we find her. She, along with two friends invited to the party, decided to go across the street to play with the toys in the other yard. Without telling anyone. She’s safe, but now I feel thousand years old, and I’m gonna chip this kid like a dog so I can always find her.
ANYWAY. That was my day. I also edited another chapter of Book 3 — I had to add a scene and tweak half of it, so I didn’t get more than the one chapter done. No worries. I’ll make up the other two chapters tomorrow. I’m taking most of the day off tomorrow (I promise!) to clean the house and to relax. I’ll do a few hours in the morning, and then leave the office after that.

That is such a terrifying feeling. My youngest brother did that once and I barely could breath but I sure yelled at him when he finally came home. Thank goodness all ended so well. Kids, lol!!!
