On many happy returns.

Miracle Maddie

Maddie Girl’s been working hard on therapy and her home care plan. Her progress is slow but steady. On December 18th, we’ll be celebrating her third birthday and having a donate-a-thon in her honor! You can head over to her GoFundMe page to donate and you can visit her Facebook page to send her birthday wishes!

Ireland —> America

I cleaned and packed, handed in my final assignments, and traveled to Dublin on Monday. I checked into a hotel and tried to relax before the flight. I flew out yesterday and here I am, writing to you fine people from my home state of New Jersey. I’m currently in the living room with my father, watching “12 Monkeys.” Life is good.

I love America. I was honestly surprised by how much I missed it.

I’ll be home for the holidays until I fly back on January 17th. I’ll be splitting my time between New Jersey and Florida, trying to spend time with as many as loved ones.

Writing

So when will I have time to write? That, my friends, is an excellent question. I’m getting plenty of reading done, which is great, but I need to keep up my writing routine. Between helping Dad pack and move and traveling and visiting, it’ll be tough to prioritize the writing. But I’ll have to try.

To be honest, I’m really just happy I am to be home.
