Sneak Peaks For Me

Good morning, Readers!
Picture
This image is only loosely related to today's post, but it was so stunning I couldn't not include it. Image courtesy of imgur.com. Click for link.
It is still unseasonably warm here in Canada's capital.  No snow has stuck.  It's been above zero most days.  I have been sleeping with my window open.  That shouldn't be possible this late in the year.

I'm very, very sad about it, actually.  It's December.  There should be snow.  I love the snow.

This weekend was the last I taught my martial arts classes for the semester.  I'm quite sad about it.  It was so much fun teaching those girls.  They gave me giant ego boost, asking if there were any other classes I taught.  They were keen to take whatever I was offering.  This made me very happy, and also sad, as I don't really have the time to take on another class.

I'm very glad that I had that class, as it was something I had to get out of bed for.  This was the first weekend in a while in which I didn't have that much to do.  It was going to be great.  I was going to get all my chores done, go grocery shopping and get my life back together after several weekends in a row in which I was too busy to get this stuff done.

I got nothing done.

I spent my entire Sunday in bed, unable to do anything but sleep and watch some YouTube.  There was so much I wanted to get done, but just couldn't seem to get myself together enough to do.  I just couldn't face people.  I couldn't deal with the crowds that always appear in the grocery store on a Sunday.  I didn't want to cope with the people on the street who were just there hanging out all afternoon.  Even thinking of seeing another person made me want to throw the blanket over my head.

So, I indulged.  I stayed in bed and achieved nothing.  I wish I had dragged myself out at least once.

Sometimes, though, I just get so overwhelmed.  I was happiest pretending the world didn't exist this weekend.  I get like that every so often.

I did pull myself together enough to check my email at the end of the weekend, though, and caught a look at some versions of the book cover for Sky Road Walker​ which were emailed yesterday.  They look awesome!  I am having trouble deciding between two covers, though.  I might put it up to a vote.  I might not.  It's an idea I'm toying with.

I'm so grateful to Eric, who is doing all of this work for me.  I honestly know the best people.

On that note, I have some writing and stuff to get to.

​Ciao!
