THE TRIUMPHANT RETURN???

So I have failed miserably with keeping up with the blog.  I suppose I cannot just blame myself since I write half of this and Caro is supposed to write the other half, but I have missed telling everyone about my adventures. 

Since I last posted a blog, the following has happened:

- I started work as a receptionist at a technical college.  I work five evenings a week and then Saturday mornings.  This is a great place for me to get things done as most evenings are slow.  I can read and write and surf the internet.
- I still work at the coffee shop and actually became half-way decent at making drinks for people.  It's a fun fast atmosphere and I am so lucky to have awesome coworkers who keep me laughing and smiling through my shifts.
- I had my free time seriously diminished. 
- I had a wonderful holiday season with all the people I love.
- I became seriously addicted to the BBC's Sherlock.  If you aren't watching, then you should be.
- See also: Downton Abbey.  An excellent period television show that is wonderfully done and 100% enjoyable.
- Community got put on hiatus and this made me very sad.  But it will be back in March.  For those of you who have no idea what I just said, it's an excellent TV show and hands down my favorite on television.
- I did not sleep a lot.
- I bought a Kindle and reread a bunch of books.  I have also discovered that I enjoy memoirs. 
- Odin and Thor decided that they like to chew things and that is annoying.
- I have been to Ikea once, which is noteworthy.  Because I love Ikea.
- I plotted out a book.  I'm going to leave it there, because I don't like to talk about projects I'm working on until I know that they are worked out.  But so far I have written 6K words for it and that is awesome.
- I read the book that my BFF Trish has started and it's wonderful.  I can't wait for her to finish it.
- I wrote this blog post instead of working on my novel.
- The Colts had a miserable season that I'm still not over.

  1. Welcome back, HB! A writer writes, and keeping up on your blog is a good start.

    So glad to hear what you are doing. We love you-- it's great to have more fully grown daughters entering our family.
