Tap, tap, tap...

I managed to squeeze in trip to the rock gym yesterday after Mass and will be hitting it again today, but other than that I've been locked away in my bedroom typing. My hands are starting to hurt so I have to take breaks and revise the earlier chapters by hand. Not sure when I'll be able to type in the changes. Tonight I needed to do a couple of blogs for the Wedding Planners so that did in my hands.

Anyway, it's time for the return of the tally. If you're new here, when I'm on deadline, I keep a running tally of my writing for each book that's due. This one I'm doing late because I was didn't want anyone to know just how far I was behind. I'm still behind, but not scary behind. And yes, I'm very freaked out.

Sunday Tally

New Pages Written: 6
Pages revised: Chapter 6
Pages lost or gained due to revisions: +3
Total page count to date: 155 pages
Days remaining until D-day: 14

Chocolate consumed: some M&Ms mixed in trail mix
Junk food consumed: none
Diet: Need to start The Zone, but with a deadline it just doesn't seem doable
Exercise: 1.5 hours of workout in weight room at rock gym, bouldering/traverses, top-rope climbing
Television watched: Yeah right. I can't remember the last time I watched TV or visited my Google reader or opened a book or picked up the telephone or...
Tears: none, but after writing the line above I think I deserve a few ;)
Link/Clip for the day: If you want to get to know the heroine in my upcoming release, SOS Marry Me!, she's blogging on the Wedding Planners today.

And just in case you are a big confused why chocolate is it's own category and not considered junk food I wanted to explain that in my world, especially on deadline, chocolate is as necessary as air, water and climbing. I can't live without any of them if I hope to finish a book. Besides, dark chocolate is good for you! There are medical studies that show the benefits. So it's really not a junk food after all!

Please tell me what you been doing so I can live vicariously through you! Thank you!
