Yesterday in the midst of doing a bunch of other things, I realized that part of my problem revising the 'Happy Medium' book is that I'm not sure of the logic/ circumstances/ history around the Carlisle/ Harland part of the story. <sigh> You'd think that I'd have figured that out a long time ago. Well, I thought I had, but then 7/8 of the way through the last revision I changed Harland's motivation for doing what he was doing. Which was great... the new one is a much better and more intriguing motivation, and I thought I'd justified it... but yesterday I realized I had more work to do. I'm not convinced of the logic flow in the last 1/2 of the book because that hinges on Harland's motivations. Ah! and <sigh> at the same time. So this morning, while kids are still asleep, I brainstorm.

And a quick update: #2-son managed to get a 'C' in English class, so he at least gets to have 10th- grade on his school ID, but he gets to try Geometry again in the fall... I hope the third time is the charm, or that he's tired enough to just do the blasted homework so he can get graded on it and pass the blasted course. Kids!
