Busy Times

I received an e-mail from one of my friends the other day asking if everything is alright, because she was concerned since I haven't blogged in awhile. I decided that I better post an update so everyone knows that we're all fine, just a bit overwhelmed. When I last blogged in November, I mentioned that we had a busy month and were looking forward to a quieter December. Were we ever wrong!

December began with the passing of my grandma, who was so incredibly special to me and to so many others. It was a hard time, especially for my grandpa, whose health is continuing to decline. Christmas always presents lots of things that keep us busy and our contractor began work the week before Christmas on finishing our basement. We completed work on our house last week and still have lots of other minor home projects to tackle as well as settling into our new basement. In the midst of all of this chaos, I have been the busiest I have ever been with work since November and there are no signs of it slowing down anytime soon.

The main reason I have let the blog go is because every spare second I have had has gone towards either the house or long hours with work. I have about five blogs started that I began at the end of December, but just haven't had time to finish. As soon as I can catch a break, hopefully sooner rather than later, I'll publish a flurry of posts going all the way back to November events!!

Hope everyone is doing well and I hope to get back to blogging soon!!!
