Wow... I suck at online life this year. Work is still rocky at the moment as we need to find more work to keep working. Family wise, I've been involved since before April. There was my niece's Baptism and First Communion, my birthday (thanks for all the wishes out there), the roomie's birthday (a joint party was held for him, a friend and myself, there was cookie cake), Mother's Day (driving in pouring rain from Missouri back to Kentucky not fun) and coming up is my parents birthdays this weekend (the cake is in the fridge) and then Memorial Day. Where has the year gone!!

In fic news, I need to finish typing up by two wc_reverse_bb fics since I hand wrote them. (remember to email cookielaura about them!!) And then I really need to sit down and do some writing. I've been kind of blah since last fall on writing really. *sad face*

And then the big item... In June, I'm taking a big road trip with my sister and 8 year old niece. My niece gets to compete in a national gymnastics competition that is being held in Las Vegas. We are doing the whole driving thing and making side adventures along the way, including: The Petrified Forest, Grand Canyon, Santa Monica Beach/Pier and Hollywood. It will hopefully be an awesome trip, especially for my niece who has only been at the furtherest 4-ish hours away from home. My sister has been doing fund raisers with the gymnastics team and has a Go Fund Me page set up. Hopefully we have it all squared away in another 3.5 weeks!

Well, the sick house is better. Although, my grandma (mom's mom) ended up in the hospital for almost week. She had a stomach bug and last weekend on Saturday, my aunt went in to check on her while she was napping and she wouldn't respond. They got to hospital and responsive again. Her blood sugar (diabetes issues), dehydration, heart and the stomach bug all made for a mess in her system. Then early in the week they realized her heart medicine was staying in her body long enough to be working, so they had to fix that. She finally got to go home Thursday and so far has taken to heart that she needs to watch her food intake better to help with the blood sugar.

In the writing realm, I need to get back to prompts from earlier this year, but first is the Tibbs Yuletide. I'm working on my fic for Thursday. Finally thought of a good direction for something. :)

I also signed up for picfor1000 again. I love that comm.

I'm also toying with some original fic ideas bouncing around. Not sure if they will get far, but if they do, I'll let you guys know.

I also have all my Christmas shopping done and all but two books I ordered on Amazon wrapped. Go me!
