I’m feeling like an utter failure today. I have been a bad bloggist. I haven’t been keeping up with all of your posts or responding to your comments in my comment box. I still haven't mailed anything won by anyone in my giveaways (I blame the paranoia I’ve been experiencing since my friendly small town post office became the scene of a brutal random murder a while back). Worse, I fear the quality of the posts I have been writing has declined. And today, well, I have utterly nothing amusing to say (it could have something to do with my still-not-vanished “it’s-not-swine-flu”, the mental health crisis of one of my children over the weekend and the death of a beloved member of my church congregation).

Novel-writing day tomorrow will be pre-empted by a funeral (tho I confess my lot is much easier to bear than that of the deceased’s family) and the fact that I have been a very bad writer (I am still about 5,000 words behind on my Miss D Two goal) as well as a very bad mom (major mental health crises are not the work of one day and I did not see it coming—plus, the Big Guy has no clean clothing, it’s past time to do grocery shopping and no one has done the dishes all weekend) on top of being a very bad bloggist is making me feel quite low.

Thank you so much to those who left comments on my latest posts or have sent emails this lately. Your words made my rough weekend much easier to bear. I appreciate each and every one of you so much! Go forth and have a great, sunny, wonderful spring day for me!
