Missing Blogging

I've been a bad girl. I haven't blogged like I promised... you see, when life takes over, a girl's got to do what a girl's got to do. I got sick and as a result, got swamped with paperwork. I'm better now with the help of some potent meds and positive thoughts -- and once again, here I am, all ready to take on the rigors of daily life! Bring it on!

As far as "swamped with work" goes, I did a lot of paperwork and typing these past few weeks. I know that Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is not far away, what with the abuse to my wrists, hands and fingers with all the tiptapping on my pc keys. But I don't have much choice, CTS or bust.

I've also been a lousy mom. I haven't spent a lot of time with them lately because I got sick and had to make up for all the crappy work that I wasn't able to do. Ripley's getting bigger and smarter and so is Zaki. My two kids are growing up and there's just not enough time for me to really savor each precious day with them. It's hard when you're multi-tasking. The irony of it all is that you're supposed to be doing all of these for your family. But in the process, you miss out on a lot of quality time with them. Ugh!

The next few months will also be crucial for me. I have to prepare for a major change so I have to try to toughen up. Before I go on a dramatic litany about my life, I have to go. But before that I just have to say -- it's good to be back!
