Dear Blog

Dear Blog,

I have not abandoned you. It may seem like it, but really I've been ignoring you like my three year old does when the TV is on and he's watching Dinosaur Train. I haven't really been inattentive, you've been in the back of my mind lately, but I've been busy.

I've had friends having babies, kids running to and fro and the onset of the holiday season has stripped me of my free time to write with you. On top of that, silly me, I thought we could redecorate the three kids' rooms and move the four of them all around. What a silly notion!? My upstairs looks like a tornado hit.

Decorating for Christmas may not even happen at this rate. You should not feel too bad, though, I've also been ignoring my craft addiction and all the projects I thought I would have time for this year too, especially for gifts. Oh well.

Today, I'm doing laundry in droves and in slips thoughts of my Dad to wreck my okay mood on the eve of Thanksgiving. I'm not feeling too thankful, but I know I have a lot to be grateful for.

Let's go with that.

I'm thankful for...

My kids
My husband
My family
My dog
My faith
My friends

Well, that's it for now. Hope to see you before 2011. We'll see how the month goes from here.
