It comes and goes

Whew, it's been awhile since I posted--although to be fair, it's been one of those years. My kid is doing a little bit better, and I have breathing space for the first time in, well--at least since March. Sporadic bursts of energy don't really count. Or they shouldn't.

I had the strangest feeling during the Help Desk--that somehow I'd done so much work away from my blog people who knew me weren't sure what to think. Looking back on it, the last year has been sort of an in-depth thought-in-progress on motivation and how it works in character-driven stories. Not always a good thing since I've started psycho-analyzing people in real-life and looking for their motivations. I need to dust off some of my work and get back to posting, it'll probably calm the urge and prevent shut-UP, Jodi-itis, lol.

I'm going back to bed for a long winter nap, and I might not set the alarm clock. My Christmas gift to myself. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Merry Christmas! Savor that nap. Sleep is one of the best presents you can give yourself. Unless you happen to find a money tree. In which case, that is the best gift you can give yourself. ;D

lol, Hailey. My daughter asked for a money tree, and you know? They don't look anything like the money trees my dad had planted around the house when I was a kid. Weird. :) Merry Christmas!
