Oh My God. Ihatenovembersomuch.

I apologize for not being around, not commenting or doing much of anything. I've just been so swamped between Nano and Work. This week was especially bad. Tuesday and Wednesday we had our two sister companies in to do an audit that lasted all day long. Then Wednesday after work a coworker and I drove to Michigan so that we could audit one of the other sister companies on Thursday. Once that was done we drove back to Ohio. Next Monday we drive up to Canada, audit the last company Tuesday and Wednesday, and drive back down on Thursday.

I'm thinking of taking the rest of the month off after that. I should have just enough vacation to cover it. I'm so behind on my Nano I'm not sure I'll be able to catch up. I'm 3000 words behind now. And after the auditing next week, I'll probably be further behind. I know a lot of people can bounce back from that, but I'm very slow (and not just because I handwrite).

But on the other hand I don't want to take the time off of work because I'm falling so far behind there too. And if it's impossible to catch up, should I even bother?

Everything always happens during NaNo. Year after year after year.

*sigh*

Well, love and luck whatever you decide to do!

Audits suck. :( Real life should not intrude on Nano. (I say as we have three major projects going up at the beginning of December.) Cool that you get to go to Canada, though, despite that it makes the writing time scarcer. I've never been to Canada.
Well, we do have three weekends this November... you could catch up! 3000 words is less than two daily word-counts ... a handful of hours. But I wouldn't sacrifice work to do so... then it becomes too serious. Staying sane trumps a lot... but whatever you decide, hang in there!
