I am Lonely, Apparently

Well!  It’s been a busy day here in blogland: Daniel is not at all well and has had to go to the doctor’s and get some antibiotics.  This is a thing we hardly ever do here, preferring to treat things herbally wherever possible, but antibiotics have their place and a perforated eardrum is definitely the right place.  He is not doing very well and this is not helped by his refusal to go to bed in the daytime.

*sigh*

As well as that I’ve been dashing off a short story about a woman whose mother has dementia; this will go to the People’s Friend very shortly.  I’ve decided to try writing for mainstream magazines again; I’m tired of giving a story my all for litmags and being paid a pittance.  Though I did get some unexpected pay in the post for a recent poetry performance, so that was good.

Apparently the Serenity event yesterday raised over £700, which is excellent.  Oh, and my post from a couple of days ago is listed as one of the top five on Lonely Blogs:

That’s the site, though I can’t find any reference to the top five, so they may just be flattering me.  Ah well..
