Long Absence

It has been a long while. At first I felt obligated to blog. But I don't find it easy to write about things unless they are settled in my mind. So even though I was preoccupied with a great deal, I wasn't able to express it. Then work got extremely busy. It always does in February. Until the last week of ski season, things get very crazy at the resort. Everyone wants to get in a bit of skiing before the snow is gone. And the days get longer and seem encouraging. But our temps got very cold and the resort was closed several days. That actually makes more work for my department since we have to reschedule everything. And just when I was almost caught up at work, I got sick. It turned out to be pneumonia. It really knocked me down. The antibiotics are starting to work, though. The prescription cough syrup puts me out of my misery for 12 hours at a time. The rest of the time I'm in a fog.

Thank you to those of you who have been writing to me, and checking up on me. I'm sorry I haven't been up to responding. Even this is boring. But at least you all know I am still alive.

I'll blog more when I feel better. For now, I'm going back to bed. Take care.
