Everything seems more important.

The cow getting milked.
The laundry.
I don't know about you, but today has been a full one for me, even though I really don't have a cow. Writing is a job for me but it's hard to keep writing in that professional bracket when other folks see it as a sight-seeing trip. And I suppose it is; but not always. There are times when it's hard to think about what to write. There are times I must edit; times when I must rework an entire chapter.
In every job (and I'm telling you right now that writing is a job) there are good days and bad days, good moments and bad moments, moments that others don't understand and will never "get."
And that's okay, as long as "you" get them.
