Blur

Well, last week was a blur. Getting ready for Thanksgiving, putting up the Christmas tree and outside and inside decorations, household chores, and of course, selling, selling, selling Tales from Bethlehem. That's pretty much it.

This week:
- 1st book signing for Tales from Bethlehem this Thursday. I've mailed postcards and emails, set up events and invites on Facebook, and sent a story to the newspaper. Arranged the eats for the event and the door prizes. Basically I have odds and ends to do, but that's it. And I'm approaching this event with the calm I always approach being in public: Yes, I want to throw up repeatedly. I hate book signings, but dang it, I sell a lot of books. And after they get going, they're not bad. I even enjoy the people. Still want to throw up, though.
- Household chores.
- Christmas cards.
- Christmas gift list.
- Continue to promote TFB.
- Start on work on the publicity for the signings on Dec. 13th and 15th.
- Shop.
- Rake up the dang leaves. I have piles about three feet deep against my house. I hope I don't find a body underneath the piles. Again.
- Oh, can't forget to get my hair cut. Must try to look somewhat respectable for the signing.
- Get the deadbolt lock fixed on the front door. It doesn't want to open anymore. Of course, we mostly go in and out the garage, anyway, but it would be nice if it worked.

Hope y'all have a great week. Wish you lived closer so you could sit beside me at the book signing. I am so nervous. Sigh. Well, tally ho!
