I've been so busy the last few weeks, it's crazy. I don't want to complain about it - I'd never want to go back to the days/weeks/months/years when I was virtually housebound and had no constructive stimulation. But I've been so busy that not only have a few homework assignments slipped by uncompleted but - worse than that - I haven't had the time to sit down and type out the next installment of my life story for you guys.

What am I busy with? Well, I'm carrying a full-time university load of classes, I've been volunteering between 6-10 hours on the weekends, plus I've got creative projects that I try to add to... websites I'm in the process of creating, photographs I'm making, etc.

Plus, a flat tire and other car repairs, my husband's birthday, 2 dogs who both had vet appts recently, tropical fish to tend, birdwatching to do....

I'm busier than ever before in my life. But I miss you guys. I haven't forgotten you.
