Let’s catch up!

I know it’s been a while.  Feels like both a long time and no time at all.  I’ve received several messages on here, via email and on Facebook asking about Summering and its status.  The short answer: it’s still in progress.  Why is it taking me so long?  Where have I been?  Did I fall off the face of the earth?

No.  I didn’t fall off the earth, but close – in a way.  I was pregnant.  I was due in December, but our bundle of joy joined us in November instead – almost 4 weeks early.  So, many of the things I hoped to get done (like finishing up her room, some organization around the house as well as finishing Summering) didn’t happen.  My doctor “grounded” me about a month before I was due and planned to get a lot done with the “extra” time off.  Little did I know my life would change before I expected.  So, between the holidays and my little girl, this first time mom was busy!

I think I’m finally getting the hang of things and I’m ready to, slowly, get back to things in my life pre-baby.  First on the list, my writing.  I want to get some chapters written before I go back to work next month.  I may not be ready to do anything physical, but writing, I can.  Wish me luck!

Thanks to those who wrote in desperation, curiosity and desire for book 5.  I didn’t forget about you or Liz and Patrick.  Life was just on hiatus for a bit, but I’m back and anxious to get to it!
