Short story contest down

Hello, Guys!  

I was all excited this past week filled with anticipation.  It was the quarterly short story contest.  It is so cool.  They tell you on Saturday at noon what your story topic is going to be and then you have 24 hours to write a story based on it.  I love it.  

The best I have gotten is third place but I'll take that and with pride.  I get to use their creative writing prompts and fly with it.  I just love it.

I don't see it as pulling away from my regular writing, more of a break to allow my creative juices to flow and then maybe the floodgates will open, haahaa.

I am sure if you are aware of this, but I have five kids running haywire through my house at all times.  I swear they wear turbo boosters and bouncy shoes, maybe even some flubber thrown in.  Anywho, I only bring this up due to the fact that currently, I have one planning out a wood shop project, one moving rugs from outside to the basement, another making a cake, one wandering aimlessly in search for food and the last spraying down anything that dares move with a sprayer in the backyard (including the one moving the rugs).  Chaos is ensuing at all times.  Writing is a far fetched dream most days.  This is why.  Little blessings underfoot everyday.  Ev. er.y. day.

So, that leads me to the question of the day:  What craziness have you or your kids been up to lately?  Comment below and let me know!  I'd love to hear from you.
