April flowers...or April (snow) showers?

It's been kind of quiet around here today, but we did get snow. Snow! In April! Can you believe it?!? Sheesh. Altho, I don't know why I'm surprised...or disappointed--this is Pennsylvania, after all. But the weather was just starting to get nice. I could wear a jacket instead of my heavy coat. Light pajamas instead of the fleece or flannel ones. Now I'm back to bundling up. :-( I sure will be happy when Spring makes up its mind to blow in & stick around for a while.

I did get approval on my synopsis for FORTUNE'S FORBIDDEN WOMAN this afternoon, tho, which is a big yay. (And a sigh of relief.) I can't actually start that story until I finish the current one (BLACKMAILED INTO BED, unless the title gets changed on me) but I've gotten 6pgs written on it so far today, so it's coming along. And I hope to do more tonight.

Then tomorrow, I have to get up early to take one of the kitties to the vet. Nothing serious; every year around this time, my long-haired kiddo's fur starts to get matted & I take him in to be groomed. Cats aren't always as easy to work with as dogs, so they dope him up just a bit & shave him nearly bald while he's asleep. (This isn't for looks, it's for comfort & convenience. And the closer they shave, the longer it takes for the fur to grow back & start to cause problems again. Plus, I got him a coat for Christmas, so even if the weather stays chilly, he'll be warm. :-))

As long as he's there, he'll also get some bloodwork done, a full physical exam, & any shots he needs. I'm not really worried, but I will admit to being a little concerned. Even tho we've done this before & he's always been fine, he is getting up there in age; anything could happen. But hopefully, nothing will.

And on that note, I'm going to grab a bite of dinner & get back to the book. Toodles!
