On Holidays ...

There has been little (ok, no) action around this blog for a few weeks. My lovely hubby who I don't mention a lot (because he works all the darn time) is having time off work until January 24th. So, while I'm tempted to lock myself away with the computer for a few hours (or days) while he minds the kids, I've decided instead to take a big break with him, and focus on family time. It's been great, we've had hot lunches and dinners around the dining room table, fun family outings, days in the garden and lots and lots of time to play.

So, you won't find any posts around these parts at least until the kids go back to school (around the beginning of Feb) because, as my regular readers know, I had a bit of a revelation last year and decided not to let my online life dominate. I really, really want to be present and accounted for in my real-life with my kids and my family and my friends in my sweet little house, so my blog has to wait until a have a bit more free time again.

I have big plans though. Ed starts 4 year old Kindergarten in Feb, so I have 12 whole hours to myself. I'm going to aim to post at least 3-4 times a week and to celebrate having a bit more time to spend on this little piece of cyberspace of mine, my very talented cousin, Trudy from Wild Oak Design is going to hep me to get this blog looking pretty and sweet and just how I would like it. I think good things are going to come this year and as the saying goes, good things DO come to those who wait .......
