"A Capella"

Hello dear ones!  I have been seriously remiss in my posting for the last two weeks and at Christmas time too!!  Shame on me! 

The Big Guy was on vacation for the last two and a half weeks and that just messes with my routine.  Don't get me wrong, it was nice to have him around, but what with his presence, the rush and bustle surrounding Christmas prep, the actual holiday, then a "quiet" week leading up to New Year's (we went to a party for the first time in YEARS....it was Ratchlet's party, but still...)  We had a great time.

Then on top of all that rehearsals, this stupid driving test that I am taking in chunks, and the cold-ish weather that makes me want to stay at home in front of a lovely fire in the fireplace, well, the bottom line is that nothing got written.

It's not that there wasn't anything to write about.  I started several times to draft a post, but it just wasn't happening.  Too much distraction I guess.

At any rate you all got gypped on my lack of Christmas stories and photos and stuff.  I am sorry about that, especially for the sweet souls who keep checking every day even though the cupboard was bare!  Might I suggest that you go back to Christmas 2009 and 2010 (look in my archives in the sidebar) if you really need a Christmas fix from me!  Ha!  (If I only had a ego, I would be perfect!  Silly me!)

Well, I am bound to get back on track now that all of that holiday whirlwind is over.  If you can stand it, I will try to catch up with some "make-up" posts over the next few days.  In the meantime, just so you know, we had a WONDERFUL Christmas....I'll share some stories, I promise.

(I feel like such a slacker, but the truth of the matter is my brain can only deal with a certain number of thoughts and concerns at a time...and I guess I hit that number and something had to give, sigh....)

See you soon!
