Quickly:
1. Well, The Mists of Avalon has officially found a new home, but don't forget that if you want to contribute to RAINN, let me know, especially if you contribute over $50, because then the book belongs to you. If you contribute at least $50, let me know, substantiate that, and you'll be in a drawing with the current leader.
2. Sad things are afoot. Bryon's mother is having increasing difficulty with her memory. She is 88. We have an appointment with a memory specialist for her Tuesday next, and we should have some answers as we get her tested. This is taking its toll, especially on Bryon. I am learning lots of interesting things about memory and assisted living at the moment, and several of you have sent along helpful tips. I think the new normal is going to take some getting used to. If you could send positive vibes to Bryon and his brothers, that would be awesome.
3. We have had an enrollment surge here at work, and I'm in the process of hiring 3 new teachers, interviewing 2 next week, and hopefully staffing another 14-16 credits. Starting next week we turn away students. We will have a record enrollment, I predict, of 450 students when the dust settles, a full 100 more than our previous record.
These reasons are why I haven't followed through on my Mission: Impossible write up, or the other things I have planned. Be patient, true believers!

While Bryon is attending to family business down south for the next few days, I will be manning the guns and feeding the cats as I have already returned to work. I will use the time to work on a few fiction-y projects, so it's not all bad. But it certainly is draining, all this life-i-ness.
I could use some uplifting happy news. You know, a free cruise? Hey, I'd even take someone offering me representation or buying a story.
You guys have good weekends. I will toodle off to my adequate because I am not at work weekend.
