Well hello there. It’s been a while. Remember that whole meditation resolution? Let’s call that a blog fail and move on. I was entirely too busy with back-to-school, kid illnesses, my own illness, and loss of electricity during a freak storm to pay much attention to the blog or to the concept of meditation (although, I probably could have used it). I did attend a workshop on women & stress and we discussed meditation, so does that count a little? Thought not.
It’s probably time for me to address one of my creativity resolutions, but I’ll need to ponder this to see what is do-able. What I really want to tackle is learning to sew. I collect flyers from Jo Ann Fabrics and circle the sewing classes, but none of that gets me closer to buying a sewing machine. Much like the bike, it’s an investment that I’m not sure I’m ready to take without knowing how to use it yet. I wish they had loners on hand.
In other news: I published a personal essay in Skirt! Magazine and am pretty happy about that. Here’s the link:

It just came out at midnight and I have had 380-some-odd views and my sweet friends have liked it on Facebook. Hooray for me!
I promise not to tally long, but this month promises to be almost as busy as last: just launched a fundraiser for my daughter’s school, pitched an article for a new newspaper and need to get crackin’ on the interviews (one has cancelled twice – I was sick, then her husband was injured), and way too many PTA activities in one month!
Back soon . . .
