Hectic...

Things have been pretty dang hectic around here all year, for one reason or another.

Kentucky was hit by a terrible ice and snow storm, the likes of which noone can remember ever seeing in the state's recorded history. Two weeks and some still have no power. We were without electricity for a week, no phone or cell signal for five days. We brought in a kerosene heater that kept us warm, and heated up a mean pan of beans for supper. The National Guard actually stopped by our home twice to check on us, a surprise since we live out in the boon docks. I've never seen anything like this ice storm, and hope it doesn't happen to this severity again.

Before that, we all had a bug that kept us sick in bed for a week. At least we were feeling good when the storm hit.

Sorry about being away so long, but it was kinda unavoidable. Rest assured I should be back blogging at least once a week from now on. Kick my butt if I don't!
