Happy New Year!

For those of you who had thought I had dropped of the planet these past couple of weeks- I had! The run up to Christmas this year was somewhat fraught due to my weekly trips to Plano. I worked out I had spent more than 30 days of the past 2.5 months away from home and I was beginning to feel really tired. So when Christmas arrived I stopped- sending email, doing work, worrying about stuff and tried to relax. I have now done a bit of retro bloggin and added the blog entries for the Christmastide.

I am now slowly ramping back up, sitting her ein Mr. Toots Coffee Shop with Dena (Alexander is thankfully back school). There is still no power at home and it looks like it will be late tonight before it comes on.
