480 and counting

Thank you to all of you who left comments supporting me through my family “issues”. I should not have used that word, “situations” would have been better but I couldn’t think of a better word when I wrote the post!

The first “situation” (which coincidentally began on Valentine’s Day) was a good one, all the better for being totally unexpected, and has resulted in deeper communication and a much closer, even more loving, relationship with my husband of thirty-five years. What can be better than that?

I am trying to get back into a normal routine. I confess that I am easily distracted and can become a little obsessed with whatever has drawn my attention. It has been said of me that I “don’t do things by halves” and this was no exception.

After almost two weeks of living in this distracted, obsessive, nearly dream-like state, I am slowly coming back to earth and my sewing room, where I now sit, reminds me of Things That Need Doing!

My computer and my iPad, ever persistent in luring me, aren't letting me off the hook either! I have dozens of emails, including blog comments, that need answering. 

And Google Reader tells me I have 480 unread blog posts! How is that possible, it's only been twelve days? I will read them all but it’s unlikely I will leave a lot of comments!

I'm sorry, I can't hang around here and chat - I have have things to do!
