Hey all,
I am finally starting to get to a place in my 'new' life that is becoming my 'new' normal. I still want to continue to write and I don't want anyone to think that I've forgotten about them. I am going to slowly start getting back into things and try to get a pattern going on so that I can become reliable again.
I'm sure you're aware that my father passed, however he had a girlfriend and a lot of things that needed taken care of. She... is something else. I've always tried to have a positive outlook on life and always, always give everyone a clean slate when I meet them. I give everyone the benefit of the doubt. When I was growing up she was a ... for lack of a better word... something that rhymes with witch. I just never knew HOW bad she truly was. A lot of things have come to light and it became very clear that she did not love my father, that she was only there for the money and she had proceeded to steal from our family, cause drama and a ton of issues. It's sad, really. We barely had time to grieve before it began. Maybe an hour. It makes me sick that there are people that are actually like that! Call me naive or childish, but I can't wrap my mind around what could make someone behave or speak in such a way. I can't even go into everything that has happened because it makes me sick, physically sick to my stomach, but also it's a huge laundry list that I really don't want to air out.
ANYWAY, back to the writing. I will be around, I'll be a little slow as I'm working 12 hour days now, farming season is upon us and ballooning season is right around the corner. I want to keep my threads a bit more restricted this season, I can't do 15 at a time.. it's not that I don't love you all, it's that it's impossible time-wise for me to do. If I could have a 30 hour day I would totally be down because then I know I could get my personal things taken care of and then I could write with all the people I want! If I tell you that I can't, it doesn't mean I don't want to, if anything I will try to plan something out with you for the future, it just means.. I can't, really.
