Y-Oh-Y-Oh-Y

Thought I'd do my "Y" post for A2Z4U&Me while I had a sec.
In case you're wondering "Y", here is the answer: because I don't want you all asking "Y...Y...Y...hasn't she posted lately?"
Because...
I was on vacation. Had a wonderful time in beautiful North Carolina, spreading a little TLC on my BFF who is recovering from surgery. She is doing well. We shared a few giggles in between recovery time, numerous naps, and daily walks. We always have fun and even though she wasn't totally up to par, I'm so glad I got to see her.
Also: I'm doing NaNo.
For more on that, click here.
Progress update: today is day 7. I have 15,641 words done. Need to average 1667 per day in order to finish by the end of the month and right now, I'm averaging 2234. I like to get a cushion going at the beginning because as time goes on, it's easy to stall out. It's going well and I'm pleased with my progress. My current goal with "Photo Finish" is to complete the story (finally!) and ship it off to my editor by the first of the year.
And of course, there's always work, life, responsibilities, etc. *blah*
So there's my explanations (excuses.) Your patience is greatly appreciated!
