Blog Silence: Not On Purpose

Just a quick note to say I haven’t disappeared from the Internet, I haven’t gone completely invisible, and I haven’t done a Rincewind and fallen off the Disc.

All is good here, now, but I’ve spent the last week with a sick son–first the flu, then pneumonia that took him into the hospital for a couple of days. Everybody–doctors, nurses, techs, family, friends–has been wonderful, so wonderful that I never really got scared. Focus, though? Pretty much on the sick room.

We’re home, we’re happy, and healing is progressing nicely. Family is coming for Thanksgiving, and we’re all going to take it easy–eat, play games, take in a movie–and get totally well! After that…?

After that, I expect you’ll be seeing me around here a whole lot more again!
