When Scribbled Notes Tell a Story

Time has its big boy boots on.  I picked this sheet of paper off my table and as I read over the notes I had made about a story I've been working on, I noticed two other "stories" happening.  It perfectly encapsulates what's been going on since my last, long-ago post.

There are three parts...

1) Grocery list:  Potatoes, Onions.  No matter what else is happening, we need to eat. Wow, could this list be any more boring? 
2) Revision notes:  I have been swallowed by some very huge revisions for both a middle grade and a chapter book.  These notes were made to weave in a sub-plot to the middle grade.  It actually worked but took some major remodeling.
3) Mayo Phone Number: Unexpected news has thrust us all into a new land, especially for our youngest.

Interspersed with household, writing and Rochester, I have had some particularly wonderful experiences doing school visits lately, and look forward to many coming up in April and May.   I am encouraged, refueled, and inspired by kids (and GREAT teachers)--that never changes!

New book news to come once I have photos!
