Long time, no post

Holy toledo, it has been so long since I posted! I didn't realize it. It has been an incredibly busy December. Not as busy as last December when we had Mike and Marmar's deaths nine days apart...we look back at that time and still can't believe that it really happened. I think, on some level, conscious or not, I felt the drain (emotionally and physically) again this year. Plus, it was an unusually hectic December at work. I had many students "graduating" and new students entering my speech class, plus a special project with one of my students, plus my Fun Friday friends, plus wrapping up the iPad class that I was facilitating. This year, I worked until December 21st and that added to the time crunch. So I guess I don't feel too badly about leaving my devoted readers hanging. I am going to be a blogging fool the next day or two til I catch up. Thanks for your patience! xox
