NaNo 9: The sun is setting.

I'm a horrible person!
I've written nothing the past few days and I'm going crazy from all the stress in my life right now >. >
I don't know what to do anymore.

4:38pm
So, I took Dovah to the vet today. Her temperature was way low, she was constipated. They did bloodwork and xrays and found she has severe arthritis in her hips. They also found a tumor in her mouth, but I can't afford the biopsy, so we won't know if it's cancerous or not. She's coming home tomorrow and I will be monitoring her closely. I started a gofundme and $290 has been raised so far. I'm so thankful.
On top of this, I got a really bad phone call from my boss. I might be losing my job. I don't know. I'll find out on Monday.

I'm basically just writing as a distraction from everything. I did get to talk things through with my dad which was very helpful. He was very encouraging.
So with the story, I'm not sure I like what I've written so far. I went back over Chapter 1 and rewrote a bunch of stuff, lengthening paragraphs, changing wording to fit the style I used with Write This Down. That helped. But I'm a little torn on Chapter 2 and 3. I'm not sure if I want the three of them escaping the House just yet, but it will get the adventure moving.
Hmmm...
Maybe I'll just go with it for now. I can always go back later and change it if need be.

Ah, chapter 3 went pretty okay. Not my best writing, but it was fun, and that's what matters. A lot happens in the great escape from the Nightmare House.
I've got 1419 words written today which is awesome. I'm gonna try and write a total of 5000 before bed, but we'll see how far we get hehe.

8:02pm
Had a nasty accident with my lemonade spilling everywhere D:
But other than that, YAY I HIT 1759 WORDS!!!!
First time I actually hit the daily word goal. I even managed to go over. Fancy that! Go me!
Now if I could just get another 4000 written tonight that would be fabulous.
The going is slow because I'm quite uninspired, but tally ho, on we go.

10:52pm
Snacks and drinks acquired, I have written 2929 words as of now.
So far the kids have gotten some sleep, Killjoy assessed his injuries, they ate some leeks and unripe apples, and now they are heading for town.
I intend for them to reach a house and get more food and sleep. Killjoy will also talk to Bustopher and we'll learn about Bustopher's mission (character arc). Miiiiight also reveal the reason for Killjoy's missing eye or will save that for a later chapter.

11:32pm
Plodding into chapter 5 aaaahhhhhhhhhhgggggggg.... I'm on a roll but I'm not lol.

11:59pm
I end this day with 3980 words written in total. Imma keep going and see if I can't get a bunch written after midnight and before I go to bed.
