Do You Know What I Know?
Another update from Harlequin today….they’re still swamped and haven’t had time to read my book yet. That’s okay. I love the editor I’m working with because she is wonderful at keeping me posted.
In any case, I won’t hear until after New Year’s, it sounds like. Hey, we’ll celebrate not having a holiday rejection!
The baby was sick for four days, during which time I got the bright idea that, “Hey! Let’s get rid of all diapers!” Yes, who do we think was the REAL sick one?? :loser: But we did accomplish a few things. The baby now hates being wet or soiled in any form. She dances when she has to go, which is very handy. BUT…she will not use public toilets.
Can’t say as I blame her. Those things are terrifying enough to those of us who use toilets on a regular basis.
Other news in the family…we have lost our minds! Yes, we are having our windows replaced. All of them. Tomorrow a crew will rip gaping holes in our house in the middle of December!
I have a sickening knot in my stomach, because as we all know, construction never goes without problems. I have visions of men with drooping waistlines, scratching their noggins and saying, “Yup. You got moisture damage. We’re going to have to reframe the house and rip it down.”:shock: Pray for me.

(((hugs))) on the sick children. I’m going through a bout of it here too…one right after the other…it’s the youngest turn’s now too:sad:
How great for the editor to keep you posted! Good luck!
Bonnie Ferguson Says:
I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you, Michelle
And I’m sending you good vibes for the window replacement
Rene Says:
If it is retrofit windows, you shouldn’t have too many problems. Hubby and his buddy and even me at one point, have put those babies in. Lots of calk covers errors.
My kid is never going to be potty trained. She will be wearing pull ups to college.
No holiday rejections. Hmmm, good on one had, bad on the other because now you will need to find another excuse for overindulging in Christmas sweets.

Fingers crossed for you, on the submission and on the window replacements. (in the middle of december? ack!)
Peggy Says:
That is so nice of the Harlequin editor. Now you can enjoy your holiday in peace. Well, except for the dancing wet baby and the gaping holes in the side of the house!
Melissa Says:
Glad you like the editor at Harlequin. Hopefully you’ll get to work with her a lot more in the future!
And yay on the potty-training!!! Always a big accomplishment!
Tori Lennox Says:
Congrats on no Christmas rejection, but hugs on not having a Christmas sale!
Larissa Says:
Yay on no holiday rejection! Rejections suck anyway, but getting them at the “wrong” time just makes it worse.
But I’ve got a good feeling, so fingers are crossed and I’m waiting to hear your CALL news! *g*
