Today, I'm doing what i can while I have the energy to do it :-) Thanks to readers (like you) who read to the end, as well as writers who write to it :-)Cathy Acehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03209957178470434907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4994072470312639837.post-10308840353275016222017-03-09T10:03:07.832-08:002017-03-09T10:03:07.832-08:00Hello Carol - I had my flu shot this year, but am ...Hello Carol - I had my flu shot this year, but am still on the floor with this "ordinary cold"! I know what you mean about more things needing to be done - and therefore "completed"...maybe one day I'll learn to be more careful about what I start :-)Cathy Acehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03209957178470434907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4994072470312639837.post-44367055815902205402017-03-09T08:10:58.985-08:002017-03-09T08:10:58.985-08:00Hi Cathy - I hope you are soon rid of that annoyin...Hi Cathy - I hope you are soon rid of that annoying cold! One of the things I really admire about the writers I know is their ability to see a book through to the end .... being self-disciplined to "write through" all the trials and distractions thrown their way. Kudos to you for being someone who completes the process of putting your creative ideas to paper so we, as readers, can enjoy the results.<br />Nancy Reid (Posting as Anonymous)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4994072470312639837.post-38260786723073321132017-03-08T18:50:57.199-08:002017-03-08T18:50:57.199-08:00So sorry you've caught the nasty cold that'...So sorry you've caught the nasty cold that's been going around. My hubby is on his second round with it, and I haven't totally shaken the flu-cold-whatever-it's-called that hit me before New Year's. Almost, but not quite. It's frustrating. I hope yours is short-lived.<br /><br />I guess I'm a finisher-completer, too. I've finished all the novels I started -- at least, they're finished in more than a first draft effort. I've undertaken various craft projects through the decades, oil painting being my favourite and most commercially successful. I put it aside when we moved from the Island because the move coincided with the startup of my dog show business. It was meant to be a temporary hiatus but I have to admit I've never returned to it. The older I get, the more interests I pursue and the longer it takes me to get things done.

Just the idea that such a thing exists is deeply disturbing.Allan J.

I'm feeling a little better today, though I will be having Marmite on toast for breakfast as that's all I seem to be able to taste ;-) Cathy Acehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03209957178470434907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4994072470312639837.post-53527940823195044482017-03-08T00:57:29.333-08:002017-03-08T00:57:29.333-08:00Get well soon, Cathy.
