Howland heads for the water

Sunny and cool
This sore throat just won’t let me go. And I’m feeling lethargic and achy, too. Very frustrating.
I did about 35 pages on the screenplay revision and proofed 184 pages of a novel, whose partial I have to get out to an editor in the next few days. Not a total loss of a day.
Re-read another piece that I’m itching to work on again, even though it’s going to be a difficult sell.
All I really want to do is stay in bed for a day or two, but that’s not an option right now.
I should have mowed the front. But did I? No!
I did, however, manage to make it to the National Marine Life Center for Howland’s release on Scusset Beach. He had a good rehab — we only got him in early April, and here it is, in June, and he gets to go home. Always exhilarating to have that kind of a success story.
Lots to do today, and then a board meeting for the Writers Center tonight. Must get moving.
