This morning I cuddled with Susan, then we got up about 6:30 am at Lilly's insistence. I had coffee, a banana, and a mini-honeybun.

I welcomed several new members to my "Apps, Proofreading, Websites" Facebook group, and also did a nice Featured Author post starring Lisa R. Hall's novels Girl Found and Wendy. Already proofreading related, I got a "Thanks, man!" from J. N. Chaney for purchasing his tetralogy that begins with The Amber Project. Doesn't hurt to tip the hat to the man who has, so far, paid me $700 to proofread novels to prep them for publishing under his branding.

This morning, I need to finish the last 12K words in Blackout Rogue then submit to Jennifer See for conveyance to the author. She and I had a FB Messenger discussion about the novel last night.

Later, when it warms to a bearable 40+°F, I'll go to Bobo's and clean her geothermal filter and visit a bit.

Here's a pic of our church more than ten years ago, taken in March of 2009:

Rough week. Friday, Pam and I did a written reprimand and PIP on KS. She was defensive and offensive in the interview. I'm not the man JS was, because I've not been doing the dishes. So I did pots and pans Friday.

Anyway, I hate this kind of work stress. The personal/personnel kind. I can handle work-load/paperwork stress much easier. S was concerned about me last night because I put the dogs to bed at 7:40 and was in bed reading at 8pm. She gave me my testosterone shot about 8:30 pm and asked while we were reading if I was okay. I explained yes, just tired from work-stress, all the proofreading load recently, and recovering from the UTI.

I'm 28% into my current Variant Publications proofreading job, which is around 193K words total. Today, I will also work more on Tracie Sharpe's dissertation proposal.

Proofed 18,150 words in current job for Variant Publications. Only had five TR clients. Did a wee bit of work on Tracie S's dissertation proposal. Skipped Angela E's job. Will catch up on it tomorrow morning. Won't take two shakes.
