Rewrites Again

So the email wasn't of acceptance. It was - another rewrite! 'Can you put back in some of what you took out?' I can but I'm struggling to do so within the word limit they want from me.
I'm touched that they are taking the trouble - much easier for a busy fiction ed. simply to reject and move down the pile - and I can rewrite and rework for ever. But will we ever get to a point where we're all happy?
Today's job is to go back and look at the rewrite (two) which I completed before half term got in the way and see if it's going to work. (I'm sure there are other writers who can work during school holidays - but I'm not one of them.)
Wish me luck.
