I don't know why, but it struck the right funny bone. :) <br />I am thankful for the end of 2017. I'm thankful for the coming of Christmas break and all that means. <br />Oddly, it's the rainy season here (winter in the Northwest near Seattle) that's the "ideal" time to do dig holes in the ground so we have some of that going on at a nearby intersection as preparation for a roundabout. All the electric lines, cables, and other things are getting re-routed underground. <br />BTW - Way to go on your writing!

Thanks for clearing that up! <br /><br />When it comes to Christmas ornaments, I'm the one rearranging their placement until everyone wants to throw me out of the house. It sucks being a Virgo.<br /><br />My big accomplishment for the year in writing was finishing the editing of a novel and querying it. Plus starting a new novel. <br /><br />In TV, I've been watching The 100 on Netflix and enjoying the heck out of it. I've got my eye on The Dark and I've heard Mudbound and Godless are worth a look.<br /><br />The ousting of sexual predators from their jobs is fascinating in a car wreck kind of way. It's perplexing that Trump seems immune, but it's much tougher to fire a president than fire an actor I suppose.
