I made sure to write this morning. I had such a hard time reaching my word count last night, that I didn't want to repeat that. I wrote 274 words this morning before work. I would have written more, but I had laundry to fold, and a bag lunch to make for my son's field trip.
A bag lunch he left in the car, by the way. Luckily, I had also made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for myself, which I gave to him. Someone in his class gave him an apple, and he got a box of cereal from the cafeteria. (I ate his pb&j as a snack when we got home.)
He also got sick on the field trip. Apparently, he wasn't feeling well this morning, but hid this from me because he wanted to go on the field trip. He threw up after the bus ride, so wouldn't have been able to eat the lunch I had made for him anyway.
He was a real trooper, though. He stuck it out with me during kickball tryouts for an hour after school. Then we came home.
I wrote another 293 words before we went to pick up my younger son at his after-school program.
After dinner, I wrote some more, finishing a total of 1,680 words today, for a grand total of 17,528. I am now 35% done, over a third of the way there.
If I keep going at this rate, I'll finish 50K, the goal of NaNoWriMo, somewhere around the 27th.
