Since my last Sunday Salon post, things got much, much worse. Let me just say that I do love my children very much. This is evident in the fact that we are all still alive. While I’m so glad that my parents came to visit, the entire week was nothing but exhausting and oh, so stressful. This is why I have only posted twice in the past 10 days (and only then because I’d committed to the book tours ahead of time) and have been a non-entity around the book blogosphere.
Thankfully, I’m seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Case in point:
- I’ve left three comments in the past three days (as opposed to no comments the 7 or more days before).
- I am starting to think about the reviews for some of my finished books that aren’t on a book tour deadline.
- I am starting to think about the post I’m going to write about my newest reading gadget.
- I am listening to Nicole and Trish’s Blog Talk Radio show instead of sleeping.
- I’m looking forward to my month of November, which will be (mostly) dedicated to Neil Gaiman. I’ll be posting more about that later this week, too.
- I’m leaving for Orlando on Sunday (4 nights at the Disney Grand Floridian!) for a conference. Reading by the pool awaits me!
I want to thank my loyal readers and blogging friends for sticking with me this month. I really appreciate it.
Can’t wait to hear more about Neil Gaiman November! Welcome back to the blogosphere!
I was just thinking of you yesterday and hoping everything was okay! I missed reading posts from you. I’m glad things are improving and I hope that continues.
Life comes first, blogging will always be here when you get back!
The Grand Floridian is such a fabulous resort you’re going to love it. Have a safe and fabulous trip.
I’m glad you’re seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and I hope you had a great visit with your parents! Enjoy your time out by the pool!
How could we possibly abandon you?
We’re here when you’re ready for us!

It’s good to hear everything’s getting back to normal as far as blogging goes. I know what you mean about the kids and your love for them that becomes most evident when they’re still alive lol! Anyway, I’m looking forward to your reviews.
