Well, I can’t tell you how many times I have tried to sit down and write something and have ended up not doing a thing other than write for a few minutes and then close it all out.  One never knows how you’re going to feel at my age from one hour to the next.    I can’t tell you how many times I have started on this same page, deleted it and started it over again with a new date.

I will have to admit that I haven’t felt all too well physically since before Halloween and it’s been one thing after another, depression, colds, flu and the winner was the flu for Christmas.  I’m still getting over that round of fun and it may take me a while but I’m sure I will feel better eventually.

Yes, this was my first holiday season without any family here in Colorado, so, it was a bit daunting and devastating all at the same time.   We really don’t have any relatives here anymore that we’ve associated with for years – I have zero relatives up here and my husband has a few but I think they had a bit of a falling out years ago and have never mended fences at all. Oh well, I’m sure that happens in a lot of families over time.  I guess I can willingly admit that I felt more than a little depressed and it did seem like I caught every cold that came down the pike – I’m the only one in the household that goes into stores or anything like that because I can move easier and faster than my better half – my immune system has never been awesome, however, I am trying to get to the point that I don’t catch a cold when I go up to the mailbox and fetch the mail.

I’m going to try to get some of the stuff written again, no promises.  I just must force myself back into my habits again.  It doesn’t do any good to just sit here and wish things were different.

See you all in Azeroth.
