V Is for Victory??????

Okay, so I was determined  to make the V blog about Victory.   Mainly I was going to finish my novel and gloat about how I finally finished writing an actual novel.   But guess what that didn't happen!   It was a good thought right?  So here is what I did do on my story,  I wrote two more chapters!  A victory in itself.   It's really the chaotic nature of life that kept me from finishing the novel.   Today my daughter is going to be in her first play!  She is going to be a Shar Pei  in a play called Arf!  So I volunteered to paint the kids noses to look like dogs.  (I want to get in more experience so I can hopefully open a face painting side business.)  

My mother made this adorable wrinkly costume for her and now my only task for the day is to figure out how to paint her face to look like a Shar Pei.... Not as easy as I thought it was going to be.  I tried painting her face last night and she looked like a mixture of Darth Maul from Star wars and Chewbacca.   So today is all about getting the big V.   I may not have finished my novel but I will win this battle of the wrinkly face and make my daughter look like a Shar Pei if it takes me all afternoon!   I also decided on a name for my Face Painting Business--  Untamed Faces.    I made business cards, and got a supply of paints that should last me awhile!    

So hopefully Victory will be heading in my direction soon.   A finished novel... a possible business venture... and turning my child into a dog for night!  

Thanks for Reading!

KID QUOTE OF THE DAY:

My son:  I don't like to go out side I am scared of the moon and the owls.
Me:  Why are you scared of owls and the moon?
My son:  Because I scared of the moon because its spooooooky, and I scared of owls because they throw up on my head. 
Me:  Haha  when did an owl throw up on your head?
My son:  The owl it fly and throw up on my head.
