Well, Hello

I have been severely neglecting this blog.  I'd like to blame it on something worthwhile, but it probably has more to do with spending my short down time playing Words With Friends and WELDER Wars with my friends and sister than anything else.  That, and it's busy around here.

I actually write many, many blog posts that never get published.  All of them lovely, detailed and informative, and only in my head.  I do my best writing, in my head, when I am lying in bed with a migraine, or trying to sleep at night when I have slept all day with a migraine.  Luckily for you, I never actually write them all down, because I fear that while I think they are brilliant, they would actually come out sounding more like Alice in Wonderland than The Queen and her Crew in Realityland.  Because thinking with a migraine is not always the best plan.  (Although, Lewis Carrol, who is reported to have been a migraineur, did very well thinking and writing while having a migraine...or at least kind of describes what it is like to have one through Alice's adventures.)

So, I will try to do better.  I still have to catch you up with summer adventures.  And beginning of school.  And Cinderella's birthday.  But today, I have a King in bed with a fever; a Cinderella sent to school feeling lousy, but she has the PSAT to take, so could not miss school; a Snow White with a fantastic slice out of her thumb because she washed our sharpest knife without being supervised; and a marvelously healthy but grouchy Sleeping Beauty off to school with darling hair that is somehow "hideous" (?!); and me.  I have been seeing a new doctor group that promises not to give up until they can help me feel less pain.  So far, we are 3 and 0, with The Headache winning.  I am beginning to feel like a lab rat, and am extra exhausted.  But hopeful that someday we will find something that says "eat me" or "drink me" that will not make me feel like I am ten feet tall or ten inches tall and will get rid of the nasty feeling that I am communicating with a cat that disappears in parts, or people that can't formulate sentences and like to golf with animals.  Or something.
