Blog? What Blog?

I'm alive, really I am. Ten blog posts have been started over the past week or two. Ten posts have been scrapped. But tonight, I am back. No excuses. No explanation. Just. Back.

I'm in this new phase in life. The 'sort of' back to work phase (temporarily), and I'm so not used to it. We had several great opportunities present themselves, and since they all were temporary situations, and since we could (like anyone, I'm sure) really use the money, we decided to bite the bullet and go for it.

I have been gone a lot more than usual and have put in a lot of working hours here at home. It's odd. I haven't 'worked' in so long, and adding it to my regular homeschooling routine isn't so much fun.

But it's temporary. And we're going to take a vacation from the profits, soooo it's most definitely worth it!

See? Now I've sat down to write and because I'm spent, my mind is mush and I'm coming up with five word sentences and the sixty stories that were pounding in my mind are now gone. Like the wind gone.

It must be the same brain mush that I had this morning when I was making waffles. I reached into the cabinet to get the canola spray to coat the waffle iron and instead, blindly grabbed the beautiful sky blue can of spray paint that I was using to paint the kitchen chairs. (Which, by the way, look smashing next to the granny smith green kitchen walls. Lovely. Springy.) Fortunately, I caught myself just as I began to spray the iron. That first waffle tasted a bit oily, but other than that, no one even noticed.

Oh well, tomorrow is another day and hopefully my mad (or bad) writing skills will return.
