NaNo is turning into a NoNo, this is my first attempt at NaNo and I had high hopes of managing it without too much difficulty, but as always seems to be the case for me when I feel positive everything goes wrong. I have spent half the last two weeks chasing round, on hold on the phone trying to get my gas meter sorted out, and obviously with a small child and the weather getting colder that had to be my priority, and finally it is now sorted. The the issue is that I am going through a phase with the monster at the minute where he does not want to get in his own bed on a night, he wants to cuddle up in my bed and it can take up to an hour to get him settled which means it is around half nine on an evening before I can focus on my writing which as you can imagine means I am already exhausted before I begin trying to get anything down in the evening session. I will continue with NaNo and technically it is not beyond reach but will take pulling a few serious writing sessions to get back in the zone saying which that’s what I am going to do for the next couple of hours before I head out to work. Maybe next weeks update will look a little better…

Fingers crossed for you Paula but remember that not completing it doesn’t make you a failure. There’s always next year when at least the bed issue should be sorted and the little monster should be happy in his own bed. Anyway, at 18 he should really be there. lol

He tends to be really good at going to bed for a few months then out of the blue we have these battles, he actually goes to bed okay then uses every excuse possible to get up and try to return to my bed instead of his own
