Since we last left you...

Wow.  One month of NaBloPoMo obviously didn't instill ANY good habits at all for me, did it? 

I'm blaming the germ invasion that took over the house.  Human forces, armed with Vicks and Mucinex, are attempting to drive out the intruders prior to homeland festivities scheduled for 12/25 but the battle is expected to be challenging. 

Force leader (aka Mom) has pulled herself from double duty (aka real job) to focus efforts on the home front with little success.  Immersing herself in the battle only allowed the germs to increase their stronghold.  After a quiet weekend on the front, the human forces do seem to be making a resurgence and all hopes are that everyone can pull double duty (school/work) with ease while still making process on the germ-eradication front.

So yeah- we've all been sick.  A lot.  And I was tired of hearing myself whine on twitter and assumed (gosh, I hate that word!) that it would be best to avoid it here as well.  But, there are Christmas lights twinkling at the end of the tunnel and I think I feel a bit of Christmas spirit finally pushing its way though the mucus-filled cavities in my body.

Stay tuned for more battle updates...
