I'm working on making a comeback!  Life overtook me for a while there.  Biggest thing was Ian (my eldest) graduating from high school.  I'm not sure I can explain why this been so hard for me (i.e. devastating).  I'm still processing what has happened, and what is happening.  The going-away-to-college thing.  I mean, seriously?  One of my favorite people in the whole world is going to move away?  And I'm supposed to be celebrating?  Uh-uh.  Mourning is more like it.  Make no mistake, this is a loss.  I know that I am crazy, and I'm supposed to be looking forward to the day that my kids leave.  Yes, I got the memo.  But I can't seem to embrace it.  Anyway, welcome to my world...needlecrafts?  Well, I had made some progress on the projects that I had been blogging about, but eventually I dropped everything, unfinished and took care of the more demanding things.  I have not weathered this period the way I would have liked to, but it is what it is.
I'm getting ready to start posting again more regularly.  I just hope I have some interesting things to say, and not just mommy-whining.  See you soon.
