My head is going to explode...

jennickelsI worked and worked all day on chapter 12 of "Homecoming." I wrote out a whole scene between Hyde and his girls (5 handwritten) and then I scrapped the whole thing when I got on the computer. The feel just wasn't right. The last two chapters were quick moving. The fight scenes between Jackie and Hyde are so easy to write but then I get bogged down on how to link the different parts. I can't just go from fight to fight--other stuff has to happen inbetween. I finally settled on having Hyde drive around town a little to clear his head. Then he talked with Steve a little before heading home and discussing the fight with Donna.
After Donna leaves Jackie shows up and accepts his apology but doesn't forgive him. But she takes him out to lunch anyway. I still have no clue what the next chapter will bring. Hyde is going to buy Bob's house so that Shawn can be the "scrawny neighbor boy" to his daughter Kelly, but I'm not sure how I'm going to write it in. I'm also not sure how I'm going to have Hyde and Jackie make up. Twenty years of resentment is a lot to just throw off in just a few weeks.
The hardest part is I'm trying to finish it all before June 14th. We're moving that day and then I won't have the internet anymore so I won't be able to update the fanfic site anymore. Those girls would kill me if I didn't finish the story. I actually have two going at the same time but I think I will have to yank the second one since I know I won't be able to get it done in a week.
That leads me into my day...

The kids are driving me nuts!
That will probably be the heading for almost every day. The kids always drive me nuts. All Meagan ever does is yell and scream and tell me I'm Cruella Deville. Brenna constantly tells me she hates me then turns around and kisses me and says "sowwy". She is so cute. Owen is just ornery and tears the place up. Sometimes I can't stand them and wish they would go away. But then after a few minutes without them I miss them so much I can't stand it.
Today (or actually yesterday, since it is almost 12:30am) was Sunday so I relaxed and watched the race. I couldn't wait to update Patrick when Jeff Gordon wrecked at the beginning. He is always wishing someone would take Gordon out each week. Today it was Tony Stewart--my new hero, lol. Only because I had the wierdest dream last night. I dreamnt I was a NASCAR driver and I was sitting in a room with all the other drivers. I don't remember much of the dream except in another part I was sitting next to a big guy in orange and confessing that I really didn't know what I was doing and had never driven a race car. He told me it would be okay and it wasn't that hard then he kissed me on the cheek. I hadn't realized how cute Stewart was until that dream. Now I can't stop thinking about him, which cracks me up. Last season I was ready to kill him because of some of the crap he pulled on the track and now I'm dreaming of kissing him--too funny.
Patrick didn't think it was as funny as I did though. The kids only wanted to know if I won the race. I never found out. I started to wake up in the middle of the dream so my mind switched over to story mode and I started working out a story where I met Tony Stewart in a bar after a race and we sat and talked. Then Owen started banging on my door wanting me to make breakfast. Kids--they have no sense. ::muttering:: Interrupting important, potentially erotic dreams. Hmph.
I better go jump in the shower quick now before I go off to bed and dream of race car drivers. I wonder what it meant? It was kind of nice to be dreaming of someone other then Hyde (the kids' new daddy, lol). He's such a hottie. What am I?--15. Geeze I need to grow up. Oh well. Off to the shower. Calgon take me away. Wait, that's a bath. I need sleep.
