Back In the Saddle Again…
April 22, 2009
I didn’t mean to fall off the face of the blogosphere!
Somehow, 2 weeks slid by when I wasn’t looking. I swear, it went by in a heartbeat! I had this Hannah Montana post all written in my head and set to go (yeah, no – you’re not getting out of that. There will still be a HM post – those of you without Miley-Cyrus-wannabes in your households can just skim on by. Those of you with your own little diva will appreciate it.) All I know is that one minute it was “Easter weekend” (which for those of you without kids in our school meant 4 days off, not 2) and there was skiing, egg-hunting, over-doses of chocolate, and lots of family time. That was followed quickly by Buttercup’s first ’sick at school’ event. GeekDaddy’s tire blowing out in the rain on the way to get her. The weekend (plus) of Family Flu.
All culminating in yesterday – the Tuesday-which-should-never-have-dawned. Buttercup’s third day of 102° fevers and trip to the pediatrician with GeekDaddy was only outdone by my waking up to find out that my upper right molar had shattered and I had apparently swallowed 1/4 of it without noticing. 1.5 hours at the dentist freaking out (more on that later) resulted in my being referred to a specialist for a “particularly tricky” root canal. And coming home to no back fence – because our neighbors apparently decided to tear it down yesterday to replace it – with absolutely no word to us. Hopefully they’ll replace it today – otherwise the dog has 2 yards to look for stinky things to roll in.
Did I mention I’ve written and published this post twice now? Yeah, the aether ate the other one. Wednesday isn’t boding to much better than the rest of the week so far.
But I’m determined!!
There will be blogging, my friends – oh yes there will! I apologize in advance if it looks like I’m the only one in your feed reader. But it’s good stuff, I promise. And come on, you know you missed me!
You did miss me, right?
