Burnt Out

[amberfocus]

I'm feeling a trifle burnt out at the moment.  Both kids are sick, DH left for Alaska yesterday, I feel yucky and am hoping I'm not going to catch yet another lovely offering from my children.  I'm hoping I'm just tired.  That a good night's sleep will fix what ails me.  Anyone know where to find one?

I didn't really write today.  Maybe a paragraph.  Yesterday I managed 678 words on You're What?  But mostly I'm just blah.  So I watched a lot of stuff that I downloaded and read some and hope that tomorrow I will be inspired.  And that the kids will be well enough to go back to school.

Turns out the fic count going down at Teaspoon was a correction of a bug in the system that had been improperly counting stories.  That's a relief.  I wish they'd have posted it on the main page, though.  I'm not the only one who was freaking out about it.  Especially with all the different things I've been hearing.  I suppose I ought to know better than to listen to rumors.  Only a couple things were facts though, so...just enough truth to cause a freakout.

Get better soon love. I'm sure I can vouche for everyone that we would rather you get better first then worry about writing as we selfishly feel that if you are NOT sick you will therefore give us the quality we have come to expect and demand know that it is important that you and your family are all feeling your best.

Good news about Teaspoon; not so good to hear you and your family are under the weather! *hugs*


To cheer you up I am using my new blue whale icon! After I read about earlgreytea68's whale watching trip I was very inspired!

*hugs* I hope you feeling better and get a good night's sleep. I hope I get one as well - I'm so tired.

I don't evny you writing - well I do because I suck at writing but I don't evny this part of writing.

I got a reply from my email about this too. I wish they had just put it on the main page. I didn't know their was LJ for teaspoon. How was I suppost to know that as just random reader? It's a big relief though.

Aw, feel better! *hugs* Honestly, I don't know how you avoid total burn out with all of the wonderful fics that you keep going! But we would definitely rather you take some time to kinda recharge and get that inspiration back than force it when it just doesn't want to work with you! Hope things feel better soon all the way around! :D

*more hugs* ♥♥♥!!!

You know, as demanding as we all are, we really do appreciate how difficult it is to write as much as you do. And no matter how much we really *really want to have the next chapter of zepplins*, we are willing to wait until you've had time to sort real life and sniffles and lack of DH. If i could send you soup and DH cuddles, I would. Take some down time, it'll help!

*HUGS* (okay, pretend i'm the doctor, and not a tiny redhead) *Dr HUGS!*

Hope you feel better soon, and your kids. Sending 'Get Well' vibes via the internet :)

Ooh, thank you for explaining the fic count thing. I was seriously thinking I was going loopy; glad I wasn't the only one to notice it.

Oh man, I'm sorry that you and your kids are sick. I hope that you and them get better soon!

Feel better soon!! (And please don't feel the need to reply to this.) Sending cyber soup and warm blankets and fic inspiration for when you're feeling better. Oh, and some sexy David (or Jonathan, if you prefer).
