Thanksgiving!



I've been apologizing to my readers (and what a joy it is to realize, thanks to my StatCounter, that I can well and truly use the plural form to refer to my readership) for so long that it should come as no surprise that I'm doing it again: I'm sorry for the rather extended hiatus. The New Year ushered in some rather vicious viruses, and my time was divided between (1) getting well (as I had a brief run-in with a particularly sneaky cough, with accompanying colds), (2) taking care of Juan (who was hospitalized for some time), (3) taking care of Manuel (who developed a fever just as Juan was getting better), and (4) taking care of Tina (who, as of this writing, is still dealing with a nasty cough).



Still, I'm thankful for all that has happened. One of the joys of being down in the dumps is realizing, much to one's delight, that there are so many people who are more than willing to drag your sorry butt out of the dumpster. While my family and I might have had some difficulty getting better, we had no difficulty in terms of getting some much needed love and support from family and friends.


Thanks a lot guys!

Thanks Tweet, Alexis! It's good to be back. I'm trying to educate myself on Asian telenovelas (due to cousin Tweet's enthusiasm about them) and catching up on work. Will be posting again soon! :-)
