Whee up early enough to check my reading list before leaving!

Post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Feel free to inquire about any of them.

My only WIP is my Big Bang, Dance or Die (These Dreams are Forever).

Mary goes for a ten-mile run every morning and comes back just as the boys are waking up. She showers, they breakfast, and Mary drives Dean to school and Sammy to Missouri's and herself to the cleaner's. That brings her from six to nine. Mary spends five hours at the cleaner's, dealing with customers and paperwork and shuffling clothes through the Spencers, and stops at Jaybird's Diner the days she can afford it; nearly every day she eats a peanut butter sandwich. Then she picks Dean up from school, feeds him a snack in the car, and they both go over to the garage, where Mary bangs on engines and does paperwork until seven. Mary picks Sammy up from Missouri's and drives the boys home for dinner at eight. The boys go to bed soon after, leaving Mary time for an hour of calisthenics before bed.

Saturdays are harder. No side trips to the school or Missouri's, just taking the boys with her to the cleaner's and the garage, which means dividing her attention between the boys and her work. Sundays are easier, in one sense. After church, Mary stays home and chases the boys through their chores and does as much of the housework as she can manage.

Thank God for Missouri. Mary doesn't know how she managed without her.
