*runs into Cantina with arms flung open* IT'S BAAAAAAAACK! AW withdrawal is REAL, people. *hugs everything and everyone*
Oh goodness, what has happened since the site's been down? Well, I'm 9,452 words into my Sisyphus, which is longer than I first envisioned, and it's still not done. BUT I really like the characters and am enjoying the story. I just hope I'm doing it justice.
Other than that, I spent over a week in January setting up a business newsletter for my Etsy. Took me a while to convince myself I needed one, but in all reality, if anything happened to my shop on Etsy or I wanted to start my own site, etc, etc, I need a way to let those customers who are interested know what's going on and not every customer is on social media. So, that took far longer than I necessarily wanted it to, but I at least found a step by step tutorial to help me through or I never would have figured all that out on my own.
Also had my 6 month dental appointment and darn it all there's a cavity between my teeth even though I've been so much better about flossing. At least it seems it's not a bad one and one is better than the many I had last year after we switched dentists and learned that old dentist had been incompetent.
Currently I have a cold and have lost a few days of writing due to lack of energy. Also managed to eat the wrong thing too late at night last night when I already wasn't feeling good and make myself sick that way too. But it's all passing and I hope to get back to wording tomorrow.
Also currently, my aunt on my mom's side, and my cousin and her young daughters are having to take an uber to a hotel because they lost their car in Washington D.C. and haven't found it even after riding with a police officer looking for two hours. *facepalm* This is an instance of small town folks not being prepared for the big city, I'm afraid. They weren't paying enough attention to their surroundings and had no clue after going to multiple museums which parking garage they'd left the car in. Hopefully it's not stolen, and they'll find it when they go looking again tomorrow in the daylight but gaaaaaah they should have been paying more attention!
Also, I was utterly shocked my dad was asking my mom if we needed to go help them. Help them how??? Drive both cars for hours in the middle of the night and then what? Take them to a hotel and drive home? Cuz we certainly don't have room to let them stay here. I appreciate that he had an urge to help instead of immediately assuming they'd want to stay with us and getting defensive over that (which would be a normal reaction coming from him) but I'm just not sure how he thought us driving to DC was going to help.
