I need a clock...

In the garden.

I'd been out working this morning in the heat, and I began feeling exhausted. I went into the garage and eyed the bag of pecan shell mulch, and actually thought "I can't lift that". (Pecan Shell Mulch is quite heavy, unlike cocoa shell mulch.) The gallon of Round-up felt heavy. I was sweating. Ick.

I kept thinking that I hadn't been working very long. When I got inside, I realzed I'd been out there 2.5 hours--which explains the exhaustion. Drank a bunch of water, took a cold shower, laid down for a while. I still don't feel 100%. I'm more like 80% right now.

I need a clock in my garden.

It's away

Sent the story on it's way to Abyss and Apex. My first submission there. I'm uncertain of this market because I haven't read enough issues to have a real feel for what they want. (I still feel that way about ROF too--just no idea).

Got my story revised and reposted on the Bar. I hope they like this version! Anyhow, that means back up to 5 stories out. I feel better now.
