The pesky little nagger is at it again, asking me when I would post something new knowing I am swamped with life. The nerve of the nagger!
Don’t worry, I’m not annoyed. I had planned to wave and let everyone know I’m over the flu … and it’s been replaced by allergies.
On the progeny front, his band missed qualifying for state by the hair on his chinny chin chin. They were 0.1 points shy. Hopefully they will get that and more this weekend.
I did make him shave the next day.
On Loan Teen experienced his first Home Coming weekend. We didn’t see him very much. Basketball practice is about to start, so it was a good rehearsal for things to come. Not being home, I mean.
DH is the DH No plans for any change on that front - ever.
And the Cardinals beat the G-Men on their home turf.
I have yet to write anything new. Hopefully someday soon I will have time again.
Cheers!

The DH pipes up …
Every man should be so lucky as to have a wife like mine: talented, lovely (all but a few of you will have to take my word for that), devoted, patient, passionate, loyal, persistent. I am proud to share her, with you, her wonderful fans.
Linnea is holding her breath for one more fan. My very conservative 79-year-old father is reading NMT! He’s never read P&P, indeed it may have been years since he read a novel, much less a love story. Dad’s always a fan of his first daughter-in-law and the mother of his first grandson. Here’s hoping he’s a fan of the family’s first novelist!
Thank’s for being a part of LE’s (and my) life. Be patient: she’ll reward you (and maybe my dad) with more great stories!

And we all thank you so much for sharing her with us! I have read and re-read her stories and have no doubt that your father will enjoy his daughter-in-law’s efforts. He couldn’t have picked a better story.
Thanks to you and to Linnea and your whole family.

After hearing about your experiences, as well as the ones from one of my church girls, I’ve decided to steer all my children firmly away from marching band unless I don’t want to have time to do anything but breathe. Kudos to you and yours for sticking with the madness!
As for your 79-year-old father (in-law): I’m impressed that he’s willing to take on a book (and not an electronic one)! My own parents, poor things, have allowed themselves to be swept up by technology to the point where my own father — who, by the way, raised an English major — admitted that when they move back to the motherland and build their own house all the bookshelves will be empty because all their books will be on their matching Kindles. I almost sent in the psychiatric unit. Those things make noise, a thing that books are not supposed to do. That just bespeaks the downfall of the library as we know it — in more ways than one!
Here’s to a new story (on paper, mind you!) as soon as you have more breathing time!
