Have I Returned?

These have been some wild months. In August, I moved to Kentucky to help my father, who hadn’t been fairing well physically. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to bring my family at the time. We just couldn’t afford to take a chance of my husband not finding a job when he arrived. So… after years of being a SAHM, I had to venture into the work force.

I have to say, it was a scary experience, but I found a decent paying day job. Since December, I’ve been working my tail off like it’s nobody’s business. I don’t know when the last time I picked up a book to read for pleasure. Probably December. However, the steady income has added a bit of security and allowed my husband to move here with our son.

I tell you what, though. Absence made the heart grow fonder. After being without my husband for about 6 months (he arrived in February), I’ve never felt closer to him.

Life is tough. Kudos to all you writers out there who’ve been pulling the day job and writing career for so long. As for me, I started writing again a few days ago. Still haven’t started reading again. We’ve yet to pull my books out of boxes, but we’ll get there.

I have goals again. I’m putting on my goal board to write an hour a day. It’s not much, but you’d be amazed how much a gal can accomplish in an hour with a program like Write or Die.

So that’s that. I hope to start blogging a bit more. For now… I just want all to know where I am in life… the state of things on this end.
