You may have noticed my absence....or maybe not. I'm not THAT important...just saying...I've been fairly unparticipative on the inter-web for the last...uh...4...5 months?? I have valid reasons....I think so anyway.
Firstly, and probably the most influential reason, is that my computer bit the dust. I mean crash and burn. Crash being that I was carrying it and tripped...*crash*. I had a small service. There were a few attendants...ok, so my husband and me really.... and that's only because I dragged him to the living room to pay his respects before it was shelved. Shelved with all of my data trapped inside....*sigh*...sorry, it's still a little rough.
I'll be fine...
Anyway, without the good old technology, posting was well.....difficult. So that's that.
On happier notes...a lot of good stuff has been going on since I rejoined the living here in the real world (where I tell people I run a cookie decorating blog - "I decorate cookies" - and they look at me very perplexed...."You do what?"). August has been birthday month. My birthday was on the 14th. The big 3-0.
30.....I don't want to talk about it....
But it was also my grandma's 75th birthday and she was here to celebrate with me in Joplin :) Not to mention my sister in law and my father in law...it was their birthdays in August too. So basically it's been a month long party.
I'm tired....and fatter.
Birthday present: a new computer....yay!!!! So it took a little while to catch up with everything I missed and get back in the swing of things. Get all the work uploaded and edited that I have been making over the last who knows how long.... But basically, I'm feeling pretty good. I'm caught up (as best I can) and I should be back to regular posting.
And you know, life isn't all about cookies and food (blasphemy!!!)
....look what else happened while I was busy living...
( this is the surprise ).....on the way...
