Seventh Heaven

Living Well

The days go by so fast. Is this a function of aging or just trying to do too many things a day? Do I need more gingko?

Only two things help me remember how fast life speeds by---the age of my grandchildren and the fact I haven't blogged in more than a week!

Shall I be punished? NO!

Because...

Yesterday, I spent all day in Seventh Heaven. For two reasons.

First reason: I received the first two "hot-off-the-presses" copies of my book, LIVING WELL WITH MENOPAUSE: WHAT YOUR DOCTOR DOESN'T TELL YOU...THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

and...

My nonfiction agent agreed to take on a mystery of mine that I'd sent first to my nonfiction editor, who had to turn it down---although she liked it and said it made her laugh out loud in a few places, even---and so my nonfiction agent was so impressed he e-mailed the whole book early yesterday morning (while I was still sleeping) to 5 top editors of NYC publishing houses and one even said she'd read it off the screen and not ask for a hard copy.

Did you get all that? Sorry, I revert to run-on sentences when I'm in Seventh Heaven.

Seventh Heaven...that means there are at least six other Heavens. Does anyone ever get there from earth---except by dying? How come we can only get to the seventh one? Are the others on stops we don't have passes for?

If anyone knows, please tell me, I'll probably be working on this problem for sometime, which will keep me from writing and blogging and doing all the things I was put on this earth for.

Stay well and keep reading and writing,

Carolyn
