Dear reader(s),
I am still here. Really, I am. It's been a busy(ish) several months since June...my daughter graduated high school, had a lead role in A Midsummer Night's Dream in a summer theatre production (where I also worked as the box office manager), and moved across country and she is now a freshman at college in Virginia.
So, how does that make me busy(ish)? Because as much as I may deny it, it really is all about her! Okay, maybe not ALL. I have been devoting every Tuesday (with a few exceptions) to a study group with my wine sisters. The three of us are preparing to take a one hour, 100 question, multiple choice test to become Certified Specialist of Wine. A big deal....for us! And the research involved...let me just say this - it's intense!
Yeah...I know. That still leaves the other six days. No excuses there, I guess, unless you count work. You know, the J O B. It pays the bills. Buys the groceries. Goes towards tuition(again...all about her!). And then there's the other set of initials to deal with...the DVR! I know...TV! Can't let the cheftestants on Top Chef and Cutthroat Kitchen compete without an audience! Plus the inspiration my own Iron Chef gleans from them pays off nicely for me!
So bear with me as I attempt to re-focus. There are tales to be told, and I will find the time to tell them soon. Until then, dear reader(s)....
Sincerely,
Ness
