Delays, Stress, and Operations

Just a short blog to tell you all chapter 31 of Long Live the Queen will be delayed as well. This has been a very stressful week and I've barely been able to write a paragraph because my mind is entirely elsewhere.
First and most important- My mother will be going into surgery tomorrow morning for a hysterectomy. I am terrified for her. (Sure it is an easy procedure from what I hear, but I am just a big worrywort, especially for the people I care about most.)

Second- My cousin and I have renewed our search for a job. I've been kind of bummed out since I missed out on a job last month that I would have really LOVED just because I haven't had the time to volunteer (how many college kids DO have that kind of time when in school? Not many that I know) but she finally got my flank back in gear and we went around today grabbing about a dozen applications each.
Thus my day has been filled with filling out the same info a dozen times and driving myself insane trying to think of things that I have done to make the applications 'pretty'. (And just going crazy writing soooo much info a dozen times. )

Lastly, and the most 'silly'- sibling problems. All you with siblings of your own know how this can be. With all of us super stressed over my mom's operation, it is making things even worse than usual between us and my anger and frustration at my brother is driving all creative thoughts from my head. (Doesn't help that what I am writing is sad and morbid and dark and depressing right now too. )

So yeah, I really, really do want to meet my goal of finishing before the new year, and am still going to do my best to do so, but until we know how things go tomorrow and we hopefully have some luck with jobs, not sure when the next chapter will be. So please understand and keep a smile on those pretty muzzles of yours.

Will let you all know how things go when I know! Until then, have a good night!
