Okay, see whatcha think:
My new plan is that I will set aside one day of the week for the day I need to get a blog entry up. And then even if I don't really feel like it, it'll be Thursday (or whatever, but I am thinking Thursday right now) and that will be Blog day so I'll do it anyway. Hopefully.
How does that sound?
I'm sorry for the recent absence again. My kids were sick. My husband was sick. We went on vacation -- more about that later (in today's blog entry because this is not really an entry, just an announcement) and now I've just found out that one of our dearest families is moving to NY state and while I am so incredibly happy for them -- really I am: the job is the perfect job, they should be able to find the farmhouse of their dreams all that stuff and it's just great because they have waited so long and really struggled here -- I am also feeling just a little sick.
So I went upstairs and curled up under the duvet for a few minutes and then decided -- it helped that all the sheets and even the mattress pad are in the wash so I was lying on the foam thingy that makes the bed cushier but isn't so nice to lie on all by itself with no sheets -- that I needed to just get up and start dealing with the world. My first instinct was to frantically look for jobs for Tim in Boston and we will probably apply to one or two, but I think I have also realized that unless the dream job shows up, we really probably need to be here one more year and I think I've decided that if I can get the bulk of the big house projects done over the next couple of months, it won't be so hard to be here being frustrated about not getting anything done.
So expect lots of entries about construction. Or De-struction.
That's it for now.
