What a lovely day

I am writing - well, I'm typing, but whatever - from my writing nook! I HAVE A WRITING NOOK! I think I was bragging about this yesterday, but I'm not over yet, so you're going to have to hear about it for a while longer. 

What's even more awesome is that I have a new (to me) office chair! It's a little scratched but it about 1000% more comfortable than the chair I had and it cost me $0!! I am incredibly thrilled with it. And it fits well into the space I've made for my writing. 

I spent a little time writing a short story this evening. I'm still working on. It's a little silly something but I haven't written anything fictional since I finished my soulmates story (of which I've edited about 15%) and I haven't written any original fiction since the beginning of the month, so I wanted to flex that muscle a little. It's been fun to write so far, and the story went in a direction I had not originally anticipated which is always fun. Plus, I have a writing nook with a new comfortable chair so, hello, I have to use it for something. 

Seriously, though, today was a great day. Mom and I got massages (where I got my chair actually), took the dog to the local park, had a nice lunch out, picked up my new Blu-Ray player, read outside for a bit, and then had dinner and watched a Columbo. I also watched "Arrival" which I thought was good but my mom struggled with the flashes of Amy Adams with her daughter since (and you find this out in the first like 3 minutes) the daughter dies. My mom has two daughters she loves to pieces, and I think that was just too hard for her. She is more sensitive than I am and that is saying A LOT. We stopped it about half way through to watch Columbo, and I finished it later by myself. 

I am just so, so happy with my space because it feels marvelous and having this safe writing space is phenomenal. I have to get the art hung up, but otherwise, my room is in a comfortable place. 

Okay, bed time.
