Thoughts On Being Boring & A Blogging Break

 
As I sat down to write a post for you all today, all I could do was yawn. And that wasn't just because I hadn't had any coffee yet. It's because life on our boat is pretty BORING lately. Tickety Boo is still broken and until we get her keel repaired, all other boat projects are on hold. No point in spending time and money on other stuff if we're not sure if she'll float again.

So that means that there's nothing exciting to report. Not that boat projects are all that exciting, but they're a lot more interesting than telling you all about what I've been working on in the meantime. {Spoiler alert: It's a Mollie McGhie prequel novella all about how she met Scooter at the roller derby. Yes, Mollie used to be on a roller derby team. Scary thought.}

Because I don't want to BORE you and I don't want to keep on yawning as I write blog posts, I'm going to take a little summer blogging break. I'll be back on Wednesday, August 7th for IWSG day. Hopefully, we have some forward momentum on our boat by then and I'll have exciting things to report.

Hope everyone is having a great summer (or winter if you're in the southern hemisphere) and I'll see you back here next month.

  1. Oh! What happens if the boat can't be fixed?

    I won't be posting until the next IWSG either. Two cons and a seminar will keep me busy until then.

  2. I hope you have insurance. Not sure if you talked about boat insurance. I hope it can be fixed.

    I'll see you nest month. Enjoy your break.

    Have a fabulous day, Ellen. ♥

  3. I will miss you on Monday and Wednesday. Although I don't always comment, I always check in to see what is up.

    A blogging break is good. I wish I could just catch my blog up so I could take a break.

    Can't wait to hear what Mollie's Roller Derby name is!

  5. Sorry to hear you are still on the hard and likely to be for a bit longer. A break can bring back the sparkle sometimes, so i hope you have a great one.

  6. Hi Ellen.
    I've taken a break from blogging, the only problem with that is it's very boring.:)
    As far as your home is concerned, things always work out for the good, eventually. God has placed hard times, or stressful times, right alongside good times. So all you have to do is wait and enjoy the break for now, things are already changing.
    Blessings and peace from Geoff in Johannesburg South Africa. (Southern Hemisphere and yes, cold.)

  11. Sorry to hear that, Ellen. I hope the boat is fixable. We are in the same position...no faring forth this year as our engine has to be replaced and as we are doing most of it ourselves, it’s taking time...still there are other adventures, and I’m writing too. Happy summer to you!

  13. I can't believe Tickety Boo is still landlocked! That prequel sounds awesome, my dear. Best wishes.
