Apologies...

I told myself when I started this new blog that I would try and post at least once a week or more. My bad. Here it's already been over a month or more. I've got an excuse if you'd like to hear it. Hopefully, you'll stick it out with me to the end.

I left my home in NV to fly to OH on May 25th. Rented a car, drove to my hometown to pick up my daughter and young grandson. We were leaving the next day for Our Most Excellent Road Adventure...driving to Florida to see my daughter's twin sons graduate from high school. Armed with a GPS, maps, daily journal, two cases of water, a cooler loaded with sodas, snacks, etc., camera, knapsack full of WWE men, and with excitement in our hearts, took to the road. Crossing the border into Kentucky I get a frantic phone call from my sweet neighbor saying there's an ambulance and fire truck parked outside my home...what's going on? I say, I don't know, I'm in KY!! Tried to call my S/O (significant other), but he's not answering. Who do I call next? Seconds away from the answer, I get a call from my S/O. Don't be mad, he says...I was up on the ladder, and coming down my foot caught and I fell and broke my hip. Egads! Immediately, I want to fly home. No, he says, there's nothing you can do, I'm in the hospital and they have a handle on it. Long story short...I continued on with my vacation, threatening to fly home every day, it was his femur that was shattered, and he was in the hospital for almost a month. I flew back to NV (Vegas, baby, Vegas), on the 15th of June, and brought him home on the 20th. He is doing quite well, thank you, and we are looking at PT three times a week, plus I'm the caregiver at home. I'll be sure to post updates as we embark upon this new adventure!

Back to writing...obviously, I got nothing!  I'm reading a lot, which is good, right? But, I WANT to be writing! So, I make the promises to myself (and my somewhat small public) to continue on with the daily/weekly blog. And maybe, just maybe, a paragraph or two of actual progress on my manuscript/writing. No excuses!
