Oh dear, I am busy, aren't I? It's been eight days since my last post. Apart from some brief moments of utter panic and one ridiculous phone call, I've been doing nothing else than packing, cleaning and eating. Those lovely 6 kgs I lost the last year? Well the 4 kgs are back and determined to plaster themselves onto my hips.

I also looked into studying for a dog behaviour therapist certificate. It's expensive, takes years, and involves a lot of impracticalities. I had more or less decided to put the idea on hold, but C thinks it's a good idea - apart from him being scared I might get bitten. He's even been calculating how many hours (years!) I need to work to pay off the education. It's tempting, because it is something I'm confident I would be good at and enjoy doing.

And I wrote 491 words. Of course as always I'll start calculating writing speed, novel length and all that, and determine that I could be done with the first draft in 3 months or so, which means 6-8 months for a complete novel? I don't know why I torture myself like this. Looking at my past writing history, I should be lucky if I'm done in 10 years.

So, in addition to bead shop, writing and drawing/painting, you want to do dog therapy? You must be Super Woman!

errr I'm not, that's the problem. Or rather the limited 24 hour days are the problem.

I think that sounds like it is right up your alley. If you *want* to do it--and C is obviously behind you--I say go for it!

Yeah, let's see. You know how much time I have to put into my other projects. ;)

*g* true, but you might find you have more time, or the opportunity to handle it differently, once you are in Denmark.
