I am sitting on the deck of a rented house on the North Carolina coast, watching the sun disappear and writing my daily accomplishments. The boys are inside the house playing with toys they found in a hutch. AMKT is at the grocery store enjoying some quiet moments.

On the way here I made a mental list of what I want to accomplish this summer, and what I need to do to meet those goals. I have four writing projects: two journal articles, the book proposal, and the school’s accreditation document. Each demands daily reading, researching, and writing. I’d better get to it. Starting Monday. Maybe.
