Coming out of the gate, so full of excitement and energy, I had a lot of confidence that this was going to be a month of accomplishments. Unfortunately, I’m currently not in the best state of health to be doing anything so ambitious, and my body made sure to let me know yesterday. I am recovering from fairly invasive surgery I received in mid-October, and had to go to the emergency room yesterday in great pain and fearing a complication had occurred. My concerns were taken very seriously and so in addition to treatment I was asked to return today for further testing. Things were already much improved in the pain department this morning, and the tests came back negative, so all is good again. But I was so worn out from 5 hours in the ER today and lots of walking (which I am not used to doing post-surgery) that I was pretty much wiped out for the rest of today. So Day 2 and the word count is a whopping 0. On the plus side, before things went horribly wrong yesterday, I revised two chapters, so at least I made some headway.
Let’s hope tomorrow I can finally start adding new words to the count!
