It feels so good to be back. However, I think y'all deserve an explanation as to my ridiculously long absence.
Here goes:
1. I needed to take a step back for a little while to just clear my head, regroup my thoughts and get back in the saddle. I really don't want to do things if I can't do them well and I really need to do this well.
2. We adopted a kitten almost two weeks ago. She's adorable. Seriously adorable. She's taken up most of my time what with baby proofing the house, socializing her with Rosie, keeping her from tearing apart my Pottery Barn drapes and all.
I'm Roxie! Nice to meet you!
4. I'm redecorating the office! Yay! An ongoing process, but since I will not be in a store front for some time...it's an important one! Here is what my desk looks like!
Can you see how much trouble I'm having editing at this point?!
5. Rescuing my bathroom. The bathroom doesn't vent out the moisture so, now the paint has started to come off the wall due to moisture. It's awful. And time consuming. I may have cried more than once just looking at it.
6. I've taken time off planning events to...wait for it...here it comes...write a book! It's something that I've always wanted to do and lately I've been feeling like I won't feel complete as a person if I don't give it a shot. A real shot. I have books and books filled with stories. Some done. Some undone, some good, some not so good. I've gotten a really great start and I am feeling great about it. You know, it's weird to say it out loud, but there it is. I'd love to give you the details, but you'll have to wait. Writing has always been a huge source of comfort and release for me. It feels great to be doing it again.
So there you have it. I have a big week planned for us, so let's get started, shall we?
whew! and i thought I had a lot going on. good luck with everything!
