Getting back into the swing of things...

Well, it's been a while since I've actually posted anything but the occasional holiday stuff. I'm not going to pretend and act like it hasn't been an easy past 6 months or so, because that would be a lie.

Life has definitely been different since my brother in law's death. We are slowly trying to get back to normal, but sometimes it feels like even though we just took one step forward...we immediately have to take two steps back. There is still things going on and I know we still have a very hard time ahead of us, but with a lot of love and determination, we should get though it.

I've been recovering from the flu. I'm finally feeling better and I'm tentatively trying to get back into the swing of things, so please bear with me. My writing has been slow to non-existent, and starting Sunday night I am really going to WORK my way through this block I've got. I've got way too many characters talking to me...I just need to somehow get it written down...sigh.

I hope everyone has had a great winter so far. We've got several inches of snow this week and they're calling for more. Hopefully, I'll feel better soon enough to play in it!

Have a great week ahead.

*HUGS*

How can it already be December 6th?

I'm ready to get into the Christmas mood. It doesn't help that I've been sick on and off for over a month, but today I'm actually feeling better so I hope I'm finally about to get over this cold/flu that has held onto me forever.

For over the past week, my husband has also been under the weather so it's really been pathetic at the Anderson household. We just look at each other, cough and hope that the other person will get up off of the couch and fix the other one something to drink or eat. LOL!!!!!

This weekend we plan on doing some decorating and wrap the gifts we've bought. A lot of our friends already have their tree trimmed and house decorated, so we're already two steps behind everyone else. It seems like everyone starts decorating earlier every year, which is normally fine with me because I love the twinkling lights and the spirit of Christmas. It's just taking me a little longer than normal to get there.
