Busy Busy November
Every year I attempt Nanowrimo--and it always seems like my muse becomes trapped underneath the marble boulder that is my writers block. This year I think a Knitting Bunny helped push the boulder ;-).
On the news front, my sister is not pregnant (we had a scare). Yes, this is my 18 year old sister. She is still living with her boyfriend and is engaged now...she's known him less than a year. The family is a bit worried about his possessiveness and jealousy and it's warning signs, but there is little we can do but pray.
I do not have cancer! I had a scare...and with the help of WebMD, I scared myself further. Unfortunately they don't know what's wrong with me. So after the busy new year I am making an appointment with my GP to find out why, I have abdominal pain, bloating, and exhaustion. Heck it may be stress! Life's been especially fun lately (said with the utmost sarcasm).
The kids have been exercising their need to test boundries. Lot's of fun. Homeschooling is going well--Mic's reading more every day. Lorelei is doing well with her counting. Next letters!
This election has been interesting. Not the outcome I would have liked (while I loved the idea of a non white male president, I disagreed very much with his politics and philosophies), but it is historical and affirming that our nation has come so far in just 40 (or so) years after the Civil Rights act. But I am very nervous about our future.
Fall is upon us and the weather in Texas is wonderfully cool. Thanks to our new doors, we've saved so much in our energy bills. For weeks we've had the AC turned off and the french doors wide open. Which reminds me: I finally have pictures of my loverly and long awaited doors.
More Pics! Of the fence too.
The cats that used to visit Gina haven't been to keen on the new door---they come only sporactically and spook easily. And we have blocked up the openings on our fence, as well.
I am going to try to post more this month and of course thereafter...I have been neglecting my blog horribly.

Glad to hear you don't have cancer. Didn't know you were going through that. I hope they find out what it is soon.
Thumbs up on the french doors. They look great!
Miss the posts. It's the only way I knew what was going on with you guys.
