In Under The Wire

I was determined to get at least one entry in on the first day of the new year, and I've just managed to do it.

Wow, November and December were strange months for me.  They just kind of whirled by in a blur!  We had some family in from Florida, and we had a great visit.  They are safely home tonight.  I want to write about their visit later.  There are a lot of things I want to write about; as a matter of fact I have a list of the things I want to write about.  I thought I'd get to that list today, but apparently I'm going to get to it tomorrow; see I'm just optimistic like that.

I was sick the latter half of November (I think I wrote about that), and the first part of December, and I just didn't really feel like writing, although once in a while I'd think of something interesting to write about.  I was in a little bit of a "funk", I think; just a wee bit depressed.  Believe me, you wouldn't have wanted me to write then; the entries wouldn't have been any good.  No, I don't want to be misleading.  I wasn't depressed about anything in particular, I just felt bad (you know, coming this close to pneumonia will do that to you, not to mention zap you of your strength), and I just wasn't interested in doing much of anything.  If I had written much it probably wouldn't have made any sense.

So this month I'll try to make up for all that.  As a matter of fact, if I write about everything on my list, your inbox will probably be flooded with alerts from me this month.  (Don't hold your breath or anything, though, okay?)

Glad you are feeling better.  Yes, sickness can zap the strength to the point that writing is impossible.  I certainly understand that and am glad most of other duties have disappeared, so the writing is the last to go!  I am going to try your book shelves journal again today , and get back to read about your sisters and brother.  I had 4 sisters (no brothers).
