Update... of sorts
Hi all!
I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday season :) I apologize for my absence as of late, but it's been a busy (and not always the fun kind) couple of weeks.
We had a great Christmas. It's always so nice to have the kidlets home. Makes me miss the days when they were little and I had complete control over where they went and when lol. But it was great while it lasted and I milked every possible moment out of it.
Randy got sick shortly after Christmas and he's still not really well, though he's improved a lot. He had a sinus/strep infection, apparently, and it laid him up for quite a while. In the nearly thirty years I've known him, I think he went home sick from work twice. But he was off ALL this past week and since it's a family business (mainly just Randy and me) I had to pick up the slack and do double duty. Which means, of course, that everything else was woefully neglected. He's up and around a bit now, saying 'I feel better' but I'm trying to convince him that spending the weekend taking it easy will help ensure he CONTINUES to feel better. He's being a bit stubborn so I'll just have to put my foot down, I guess. Katrina starts her new course on Monday so I REALLY hope she doesn't catch it.
I have a ton of housework and other things to catch up on so I won't be online much in the next week or so either. If I missed saying thank you to anyone who wished me a happy birthday or a Merry Christmas, I apologize profusely. Your good wishes mean so much to me and I don't ever want anyone to think I take them for granted.
Here's hoping I'll be back in the swing of things by this time next week.
Have a great weekend, all!! (((group hugs)))
