Sometimes time controls our lives. I have found myself racing the clock the last few days and it is tiring. Time seems to win. There is something good to be found in not having enough of it sometimes. It makes the day fly by, the down time more meaningful and the success of getting everything finished feel sweeter. I don’t like to chase the clock often and mostly I make sure I don’t, but doing so can make me work faster and hard. 

I realized that I had not looked for my article on the National Kidney Foundation website www.kidney.org. in a long time. So tonight I checked and was excited to find it.  The article is about finding a good pharmacist.  Look for it in The  Transplant Chronicles. I was so excited. If you are not checking the NKF website regularly start doing so. There is great information there.

Why is it that when you get up in the mornig it seems that the day has plenty of time in it? But by the time it is supper time there is so little of it left and you still have so much to do. I get up with such good intensions and I miss judge the amount of time it takes to do what I need to do. It always makes me wonder what I could have done different. Most of the time I feel sucessful ,others times I don’t, but each day I try again.

I’m on my first dead line. My stress level is already increasing, but it is exciting at the same time. This needs to be done, that , something else somes up. I will take it one step at a time and get it done. Slowly, maybe fast, but surely. In the acting world they say “break a leg.” I wonder what they says for good luck in the publishing world? Sell a million??    

Writers should support each other. Tonight in the cold rain I went out to support a writer I didn’t even know, and was glad I did. In other businesses computition seems to be the norm. But the writing world isn’t that way the best I can tell. We are a supportive group. That maybe because writers are also readers.
