Life Interruptions and Self Discipline

So its been on my mind that in order to write a book as an amateur, you have to find the right balance of accepting life interruptions that you do not want to miss and time management. 

I have put off writing for a few weeks as I visit family in England. This was preceded by moving my middle daughter into her college apartment in Virginia and getting my son set up for a one week Civil Air Patrol Encampment. The book persists in my head but the longer the stretch, the more obscure it becomes. 

I guess this may be a sign that I have to find the time between these periods of life to stay on top of ideas and thoughts and put some additional words to paper. 

So, I do not return to the states until September 2. I vow to work on my book at least one hour each day while I am here.
