I haven't really been giving this blog any attention at all. I have been so busy with work. Life is busy and full and that's all good and well. I just feel overwhelmed by it all. I have a big birthday coming up in a few weeks. 45.......How in the hell did I get to be 45? I am not sure quite what to make of all that. I know its just a number and that's cool. But 45? 45 is the age of my parents friends. 45 just seems so........middle age. I also really need some time off. I had planned on taking the full month of December off for vacation,but it didn't work that way. So in a few weeks, I will take a week in November and a week in December. And that will be great.
Owen and I are doing great. He is writing like a fiend these days and that is great. I have also tried to scale back a bit and retire some debt I have collected. So you won't be seeing me at Target that much.
I started posting on Facebook recently and the old friends have been crawling out of the woodwork. It has been great. I really hope that someday soon we can leave Chicago. We are ready.
