I'm Back!

So sorry, dear friends and family. I haven't really deserted you. It's been quite a siege. Right on the heels of moving into our new house, I got sick for a month...nasty lingering bronchitis fueled by allergies to...something. Missed lots of work, and used what little energy I could muster to unpack boxes and find places for everything. Now, after 2 rounds of antibiotics and steroids, I'm starting to feel more like myself again. And we're MOSTLY moved in to the new house, so that feels good!


My new blog strategy is to post more frequently, but shorter posts. I've been on Facebook some lately, because that takes 1-2 minutes, rather than the 1-2 hours that many of my previous blog posts took. So from here on out, I'm shooting for 15 minute blogs and I'll try to do it a lot more often. Please hold me to it, and let me know if you come looking for news and there's nothing there. I really do get motivated when I find out that that people are waiting for me to write!!

Right now Curt and I are waiting for our first tropical storm, Bill, to hit. We went outside this morning and tied down everything that was loose, removed cushions, rugs, etc. from our balcony. Things look pretty calm now...


...but we're bracing for high winds and lots of rain. I'm supposed to go to Corpus Christi today (40 miles away), but I'm keeping my eye on the flash flood warnings. I'll certainly bail out if it looks unsafe. And if we get some good storm photos, I'll be sure to share them with you.

But right now we're both more than ready for breakfast after all the storm preparations...so I'm off to the kitchen. Come back soon to visit, because I plan to be here often now!
