Double Whammy

Some days are better off if you just stay home in bed. 

Today I guess I should have.  First thing this morning, on my way to Tia’s house, I was hit by a Sun City driver (old geezer) who ran a stop sign.  Fortunately no one was hurt.   But, my little convertible sports car is ruined. 

I am so bummed.  I just love that car.  It had to be towed, no way I could drive it, the tire was all bent and the back side panel was crushed and something drug the ground as I moved it from the middle of the intersection.

I get everything taken care of, the police report, the towing, the rental car, and finally get home to relax.  I check my e-mail and guess what I get?  

A rejection letter!

Not that I’m surprised about getting the rejection, but darn it, couldn’t it have come tomorrow instead of today?  

It was from Dorchester.  Tia and I met with Leah at the Desert Dreams conference last April and she had asked us to submit to her.   She was very nice in her rejection and said, “I thought you had an interesting setup and lots of great action at the beginning.  Unfortunately, ya da ya da.”  After the unfortunately part, I don’t remember what she said.:-) 

Really, she was sweet and I appreciate her not sending a form letter.  I’m not discouraged.  Tomorrow is another day and I bet it’s better than today.  Has to be.

That’s it for me. I’m off to soak in the tub then I’m going to bed.

Hugs,

Dani

    I’m soooooo sorry. What a terrible day. Sending you a bunch of hugs your way.

  2. Tia Dani Says:

    Thanks Lynne.
    Just got off the phone with the garage, my car is fixable. That’s my good news for the day.

  3. Kayla Janz Says:

    Are you sure you’re okay? What a dreadful double whammy. Take care of yourself and rest. Cars can be fixed or replaced, more books can be requested elsewhere, but there’s only one Dani.
    Love ya,
    Kayla

  4. Tia Dani Says:

    Thanks Kayla,I’m good. But guess what happened today? Our TV in the family room broke. Bob picked up a loaner for now so I won’t miss any of my soaps:-)

  5. Kayla Janz Says:

    Okay, well things happen in 3’s, so it’s all good from here on out. I’m glad to hear you’re not hurt. I’ve been waiting for more of the werewolf story to unfold. Hint, hint, hint.
    Kayla

  6. Tia Dani Says:

    More of the werewolf story will show up soon. However, I won’t send you more until I finish some of yours. I’m so far behind with critiques. Sorry everyone who has chapters posted on the loop.
