Hi

Trying again to post this one...

I have been meaning to get back to this for quite some time. I keep waiting for the time to write a really kick-ass post, trying to explain why I've been absent and show what I've done for myself in all this time.

But that's why I've been gone so long - there's never the time to do anything kick-ass.

So instead I'm just here saying hi. I've been knitting - I've just blocked the pieces to a sweater I'm making for Punkin. I made socks for my mom, started a pair for myself.

I'm going to try to finish up some projects that have been lingering. I'm not going to start anything new for a little while.

The kids are doing fine, the Italian is busy, and I'm (mostly) getting through each day.

There, I've done it. Let's hope the next one is better!
