Book ready for the mail!

The last thing I had to do was go over the synopsis for TAKING DOWN THE DEVIL. Editing a synopsis is never the most fun thing in the world. I got it down to 9 pages and it more or less matches the book now. (9 pages still too long, I think.)

It's all boxed up and addressed, ready for the post office tomorrow. What a great thing to scratch off my list.

I also hung the clothes rod in my new "coat closet" today (one of the cabinets I painted last week). Thought it was going to be a 15-minute job--drill a couple of holes, put in a couple of screws. Then I discovered that the clothes rod I bought was too long. So I got out the hacksaw and started cutting, and I broke the blade. I have no idea how that happened. So I got out the less desirable hacksaw and kept sawing while I watched Rachel Ray and Gina de Laurentis cook stuff. Finally, an hour and a half later, I got it done.

Then I made the bean soup that Gina de Laurentis made, and it was so easy, so there was a hidden benefit in my difficulties.

I worked some more on my mosaic picture frame. It's going to be pretty when I'm done. I'm really enjoying getting back into the mosaic-ing. I'll post a picture sometime soon.

Oh, one more thing--MY CONTEST. The deadline has passed, and I'll announce a winner tomorrow. Thanks to everybody who entered and watch the blog and the website for a new contest coming soon.

Best,
Kara
