Spring 2015 in Pictures and the Final Push to Summer Relaxation

I’ve got another week and half until I make it through a few final obligations and can begin to relax a little this summer. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining about having so many authory type things to do this year. I’ve had a wonderful first half of the year with book events, school visits, library talks…it’s been inspirational!

…But I really need a break. I finished the draft of Black Butterfly, but I have a few lingering things I need to work on before it can go out to beta readers. And I have some subbing I’d like to do for another project I’ve had in my pocket for awhile. Those things have been put on hold with the author craziness that was this spring. So in the spirit of getting stuff done (and I did check off one very big item on my to-do list just yesterday), here is spring 2015 in pictures. Enjoy!

    The Boy and the Prince are beautiful, Katie. As to relaxing, I don’t recall real relaxation when my kids were wee ones. Or maybe it was relative relaxation, (not as in “relaxing with relatives” ;} )– allowing others to help me mind the kids.

      Well, it’s not cocktails on the beach kind of relaxing. More I’m hanging out with the kids and not squeezing in a bunch of work type of relaxing. 🙂

    Looks like a great spring! I just ditched one of my commitments too, and aaaah, does it feel great. Have a wonderful summer!

    Such cute picture! And I’m glad you’re taking a break. Even if your schedule is packed with all good things, you still need to give your mind and body a rest every once in a while.

      Thanks, Anna! And, yes, I very much need a break this summer. Though I’m still not quite in relaxation mode yet.
