For the past couple of months (or longer, I honestly can’t remember) I have been promising myself to get back online, to write reviews for the books I’ve read (or re-read) and to comment on a number of issues that have exercised my imagination (or elevated my blood pressure, as the case might be).
Yeah, so not successful there, as you can see by the cobwebs in the corners and the dust devils rolling around the place.
Sowwy!
See, for all my good intentions I just haven’t had the energy, mental or otherwise, to do much more than exist–I’m working as many hours as I can get on the paid job, training for another job, knitting and crafting like a mad person
(shameless plug: go visit my etsy store! lots of pretty and warm things for you and your loved ones!)
so that by the end of the day, when my supposed ‘free time’ arrives, all I want to do is crawl into bed and crash for as long as the blasted alarm clock will let me.
However, being stubborn as a mule, I am determined to come back… starting in January (card carrying member of procrastinators R us right here), though I may manage something between now and then.
Just in case I don’t, have a happy and safe holiday season everyone, no matter what you celebrate, or whether you celebrate anything at all!

Hey AZ, welcome back! I was wondering where you were.

This is my life. Except I have no free time for the most part. Quarter end/year end at work, plus perpetually short of staff meains I’ve Been working like a mofo.
But…like you, I hope things settle down in the new year and I can post/write more.
Great little shop you got there. Love the doggy hat (is that your dog? And did you cut your hair? Tres chic.)
Enjoy the holidays hon, and come back refreshed!

Quite a few of my favorite bloggers have been a bit quiet lately. I think Real Life is catching up with everybody!
Oh, and thanks AL for that lil’ something you sent me π
Debra: Karen’s been on Twitter lately, feeding her Big Brother addiction π

It’s all about balance and give and take. Sometimes some of our hobbies for lack of a better word, need to go on the back burner as we tend to other matters. Not always what we want to do, but it happens. You have been missed, so for our sakes, I hope you’re back again soon! π
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you, too! π

Vanessa, thank you so much! Not my dog, but a friend’s late best friend, Max the model dog.
I hope the situation at work does get better soon–hey, perhaps early in 2011?
Ms Janssen, you as well!
Debra, as Wendy said, Karen has been quite active on twitter all this while–and lo and behold, she has blogged twice this past week!
Wendy, you are very welcome *hug*
Christine, you are as always so very sweet! *hug* Thank you–and stay warm, woman! The weather in your area makes me shiver just thinking about it!
