Today, I rock!

Not only did I finish a short story, but I also sanded and stained an old desk that used to belong to my daughter today. It was never big enough, even when she was five, so it had become home to various degrees of graffiti, chewing gum and other guck. I sanded that sucker and now it's my new sewing table. I picked up the sewing machine at a garage sale for ten bucks. The story I finished is high fantasy and I'm darned proud of it.

I know that the sewing machine will probably not work (of course I didn't try it out!) and the story will be rejected many times, but just for today, I'd like to bask in the glow of my accomplishments. Now, time for some congratulatory chocolate.
