Oh. My. Word. I was off this week, packing up a lifetime or so of stuff in my parent’s house and I didn’t have cable or internet.
So I went to the library parking lot–because you can use their hotspot 24/7–and it wasn’t working.
Are you kidding me?
I found out some interesting things about Cathy C. Hall this week, y’all:
- I can live fairly easily without TV.
- I can read an entire book in a couple days, if I don’t have TV. (I so loved Suzanne Lilly’s Gold Rush Barons!)
- I get a little testy by Day 2, sans the interwebs.
- I get a LOT testy by Day 4, sans the interwebs.
- You may not want to be around me on Day 5, sans the interwebs.
Anyway, I’m home now to my 24/7 interwebs which brings me to two three more things:
- You might have missed my post on The Muffin this week called “Selling Books, 24/7.” You can still zip over and catch up because hey, it’s about selling books, 24/7.
- And I found a delightful email in the PACKED inbox about WOW! Women-on-Writing’s being named as a Writer’s Digest 101 Best Websites for Writers! And that includes all the bloggers over at the Muffin! And that makes me a winner!
- Would anyone care to come over and unpack all my stuff? ‘Cause I’m kind of tied up on the interwebs, 24/7.
Hooray! Congrats on the blog win!
Oh, thanks, Tina! I can’t take all the credit–there are a LOT of winning writers over there! 🙂
PACKING UP MY PARENTS HOUSE WAS VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME. IT WAS BEFORE THE INTERNET. GOD BLESS YOU. HOMER
Oh, thank you, Homer! Not easy, but I have brothers and sisters-in-law pitching in so that helped.
Glad you’re back! Wow, five whole days without internet. I usually don’t mind missing out on facebook or tv, but email is a pain to sort through after that long. Hope all went well with your packing…been keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
Thanks, Deb, I’m sure I felt those prayers! As for the internet, poor Mister Man probably needed prayers by the end of the week! 🙂
Wondered where you were. I know that was a bittersweet job, my friend. As to the WIN, well…you were always a winner. This just makes it official. 🙂 And now I’m off to the Muffin!
Oh, go on with you, Lisa. (And P.S. I’m in good company, you winning speaker, you!)
Cathy–Be thankful you had the chance to do the packing–I’m sure it brought back lots of fond memories…
It did, Sioux. It did, indeed. ♥
Wow! Way to go on the uber-prestigious award! Thanks for the mention, too! I’m so far behind, I just read this post. And I wasn’t even off the interwebs. You are an amazing, on track, able to do it all type of person, my friend. 🙂
