Huzzah! I am done NaNoWriMo 2004. Another novel of 50,000+ words written. Well, at least there's 50,000 words in there. I'm not sure I'd call it a novel yet. And it's far from finished. It's feeling a lot like a "book two" item too, so I'm just going to have to put some thought into writing up a "book one."

With NaNo now out of the way, I can re-focus on some of my other projects. I've already got a couple long-term items that have been pushed aside: The blanket, my minis and editing are all in there somewhere.

On top of that, I've been told that I must make at least two necklaces/chokers for ppl for Christmas. So, I've got to either wind some wire, or find all the stuff I had before. I've been planning some ideas all day.

I've got a few quicker projects I want to get done too. I started already, and should hopefully have something substantial before too long. I really want to finish up a couple of small, quick projects this week.

And of course, we're all in preparation for the big move.

That's all for now!

So yeah. The blogging thing. Gotta do that now and then. Figure now's as good a time as any.

There's a number of things happening right now, so I'll cover the most pressing ones.

Yesterday, I and my wife went looking at a place to rent. We do things like this on a fairly regular basis. We look at houses and apartments and then we discuss the things we like and don't like about them. Mostly, we discuss the things we don't like about them. Anyway, last night we went looking at a new place for rent. Half a townhome. Driveway, garage, three bedrooms and an unfinished basement. Nice place, location seems nice (though we looked at it late at night), and available quick.

The SO fell in love with it immedately, and I was seriously warming to it by the time we'd looked around the whole place. We decided to fill out an application, and surprise! We were accepted. So. Now we're going to move.

Our two roomies won't be going with us though. They're going to have to remember what it's like to live on their own. We're going to miss them something terrible, but its time for us all to get back on with our lives.

So much planning and things to do in the next six weeks. Got to get the house here ready for use to move out. And we've got to get things ready for the new place. I just know that there's going to be a fair bit of shopping "on the cheap" happening with this new place. It's a nice house, and it deserves to have some stylish items in it. Maybe we'll hit Ikea for some ideas.

In other news... well... I'm not ready to share my other news yet. No, it's not babies. Don't you people know I've had the snip? Anyway, that should be enough for now.
