'(insert character name here) woke up and looked over at (insert significant other name here)'
Literally. That's as far as I've gotten. I'm stressed over a billion other things, all of which are blocking any kind of creativity.
On the plus side, at least one thing might come together for me, provided the IRS acts in a timely fashion. I just did my taxes, luckily didn't take me as long this year because I didn't contribute anything to my 401k or IRA in 2013, I didn't donate to any damn body, and I didn't make enough in royalties from my shop to have to file a Schedule C or E. In fact, I didn't even have to file a 1040, but the 1040EZ. Freakin beautiful.
Now, as long as my refund gets here in the next couple weeks... last year it came on February 7th, so fingers crossed that it happens that way again, because that refund is going to finish paying for my trip to Mexico, and the balance is due on the 17th.
In other news, I'm about to test out a new interaction schedule this week. The biggest change is putting all the boys on the same day. As my third gen starts maturing, I'm gonna have to figure out which days I move them to. I try to keep my characters with a lot of relationships matched up with those with less. Since my guys all have a bit less, I'll do those all together.
Anyway. I'm planning a Single Awareness Dinner with some girlfriends for Valentines Day. It's a bit of a pain in the ass trying to get everyone to agree on a restaurant. We're gonna get all dressed up, really treat ourselves. It's not like we have anyone else to do it for us, right?
Other than that, nothing new to report. I'll be responding to PMs, I'm determined to do that by this week. Determined. I'm also in the midst of laying groundwork for Olivia's teen years, which is exciting. Counting on that excitement to keep me motivated for other stuff.
