I'll be back soon!

A shout-out to my regular readers and my new visitors. I know I've been absent, but I have a good reason: very, very busy.

Besides my regular freelance writing work, which is a full-time job in itself, I'm working a few days a week as an RN, doing some filling in while this place needs me. I feel guilty having the skills and knowledge and not using them "in the field" when we have such a bad nursing shortage.

And, if that's not enough, we're getting our house ready to put it up for sale and that's been way more work than I planned on. Cleaning, painting, decluttering, you name it, we're doing it. I was also working on a new project called Montreal on the Cheap. Fun, but time consuming.

Unfortunately, with all that, I've had to let a couple of things go for a bit, but I promise it won't be for much longer. Things are supposed to slow down once the house has it's for sale sign up, which we're hoping will be by next week.
