What Happened To My Weekend!

I had great plans for this weekend. Get some work done. Get some more work done. And maybe do some more work. I did work, just not the way I thought I would. Joe and I finally got the new faucets installed in our two bathrooms. That took all of yesterday afternoon. Our plumbing is VERY interesting and frustrating. So, we bought new faucets marked "Some Profanity Required".
The kids were on a tear starting Friday. They've made it difficult to get anything done. And the usual chaos has made sitting down and writing anything resembling a decent sentence almost impossible. My word count for the last two days? Pathetic. *Sigh*. 5:30 am was wake up time as far as Dell was concerned. Yuck.
The good news is that I started a new erotic romance short for The Wild Rose Press Contest. They're going to put together an anthology with all the "winners" of each line (sweet, suspense, erotic etc.) and the deadline is August 30.
Apparently, I didn't think I had enough to do. LOL.
The theme is "Down The Garden Path" and I've started a new short called "Garden of Sin". If you want to see the premise, head over to my pen name's MySpace where I'll blog about it.
The word count for "Rough Seas" is the same and I have to implement some changes that Dayna spotted for me. It will won't be until tomorrow.
Then I look at my blog and realize I haven't updated anything since Thursday. How did that happen? Why does it seem that summer goes faster than other seasons?
Question of the Day? Do you get grumpy when your writing time is interrupted? Or are you OK with it?
