M.I.A - Don’t worry, I’m still here!

Back in December when I bought this domain and was giddy about blogging, I promised myself that I wouldn’t neglect this site, or the people that come to visit it. Unfortunately, I’ve been breaking that promise lately! :( Bad Kristie!

I’ve been meaning to blog. Really. I have. But something has always come up to prevent me from doing it. I can’t count how many times I’ve sat down at the computer, brought up the wordpress dashboard and just sat here staring at the screen. I’ve either been too tired to come up with anything interesting and worth reading about, or I’ve just been scatter-brained with all the goings on in real life. If I’m not working, I’m spending time with the boys, or we’re out doing family activities together, and to me, that’s the number one priority. :)

But, in all seriousness, I hate that I’ve neglected this place. I’ve been trying to come up with a new theme, since this one has been up for about two months. That’s a record for me. I keep going back and forth with how I want it to look, and then I change my mind and want something totally different. It’s so unlike me not to be able to make a decision, but that’s how it’s been lately. I’m going to work at it though, and hopefully I can have one up by the middle…or maybe the end of this month. :dead: Don’t give up on me! :D I’m also going to start an online project soon, but I have to wait on a few things before I can even think about starting on that. But yeah, I apologize to all my readers for being a terrible blogger lately! :heart: Feel free to send me e-slaps to get my ass back in gear! :P

Oy, it’s been hot. I mean blisteringly hot. It hasn’t rained in 2+ weeks, and there’s not even a sign of rain in the forecast for another week or two. Our garden is completely dried up, shriveled, and basically dead. The tomatoes are surviving, though I don’t see how. The grass is either dead or in the process of dying. Dylan, who normally loves to run around barefoot while we’re outside, hates it now because the grass is so dry and prickly - it crumbles under his feet. Everyone’s sinuses and allergies are acting up because it’s so dry and dusty outside…it’s terrible! :( I hope that when it finally does rain, that it pours and doesn’t stop for a few days. All of this blistering sunshine is too much for me! Bring me clouds and thunder and torrents of rain!! :mad:
