It has been so long since I blogged, I think I forgot how. I have writer's blog-block. Let me think of an excuse, quick. Um...huh. Maybe a top-ten list: 10. Didn't feel like it. 9. I was writing. As opposed to what is happening here. 8. Plans for my next post way too big. I was intimidated. 7. My house was dirty (not posting didn't change anything there). 6. Too busy being thankful. 5. Working on a freaking novel in verse. You think I have extra brain-waves left over? 4. My kids hog the internet. They claim it's homework. 3. It snowed. 2. It rained. 1. Uh....I went for a run? 10 REALLY good reasons. Actually, what I should be posting about are the good books I've read lately that I want you to read, too, but first I have to fly to Alabama and back to watch my daughter run a race. Newsflash: I am not worried about this trip. I am over my travel anxiety/panic/freak-out tendencies. I promise I'll be back soon. Unless my plane gets hijacked
