Blur, blur...

Gracious, it has been a while hasn't it? Thank you dear Kimby for the nudge... I've been up to my ears in work, I'm busy running a bookfair this week (with a Robin Hood theme - for which I sewed mountains of felt hats for the kids) and both of my daughters have birthdays within a week and a half... Tea party successfully pulled off, relatives visiting likewise conquered, house is a mess but the kids are starting to catch up on their homework backlog from our vacation... 100 crocus bulbs got planted before the rain hit, but only half the snowdrops and none of the tulips (mud time ahead for me!). I'm weeding 'deadwood' out of a half-defunct church library for another church, trying to update my own church's library, a school auction is looming on the horizon and I am attempting to duck out of it. There's more too, but I won't carry on - suffice it to say I am lucky to get over to LJ every other day now and when I do I usually only have time to scan over what everyone else has been up to. Argh!
(I'm using that time to type this time, so if you did something way cool I'll have to find out about it later - sorry) If I have snatches of time, I use them for the Fellowship board as I have to make it my priority there.

Feeling very left out and rather forgotten at times, but I know it is an illusion - you are all always in my thoughts, even those I have not seen for a long time come to mind at times, like the earthquake in Hawaii making me wonder about Jatamansi, Leggy Pants, Old Toby and Misty Mountain Hopper. How much more those of you whose lives I still have the privelege of sharing in this small, silent way?

Thank you, anyone who is still there - and yes, I am too!

I'm so glad to hear from you!!!! I miss your writings about flowers and gardening....you have such a beautiful way of writing that makes me appreciate nature that much more...I don't know whether we'll get to see each other over Thanksgiving..I imagine you'll be busy with family but let me know if you will perhaps be free on that Friday or Saturday.

Zowie! I just had this image of you doing one of those circus act thingies where you ride a bike across a tightrope while juggling flaming torches and balancing a chair on your head. I know it feels like you are cut off when you aren't online but there may just be a reason they call this the "net." We'll be here and you aren't ever forgotten.

I love you, Prim- you will always be my very favorite Mop. Just look at those Bilbo and librarian dolls and know that I think of you often, buried in books or not. We library types have to stick together, else we'd go nuts.
(((hugs)))

You're in my thoughts, Prim, though I have been mired in the usual angst that is Candi lately. *shrugs* I think I was a vampire in another life, and instead of sucking blood, I sucked angst and carried it with me into this existence. I wear my Drama Queen Tiara with pride =P

Sounds like you are manically busy as usual...I seriously don't see how you do it, except that you just...do.

Love to you and your family and Happy Bday to your girls!

Go you! You inspire me, you know that? Seems like you could use a strong sword arm to help you through some of that work! Which is why I give you my "Fighting to Get Ahead" icon. :-D

I'm still here, and I haven't forgotten you, not by a long shot! When one is as busy as you are, one has to set priorities, don't they? Invariably something gets neglected -- but only for a time! Neglected doesn't mean forgotten! Don't you wish for a couple of clones that we could assign to each online place we want to spend time at -- not to mention the plethora of clones we could assign to other RW places... Guess we'll just have to stick with multitasking! ;-)

I made a resolution awhile back to come over to the Fellowship board more and stay there long enough that people can see me there. ;-) I'm even more determined to do that now, I've been feeling for a long time that I shouldn't have let that place go as much as I have. See you there, then!

((((Prim)))))! You could never be left out or forgotten. Did you read Estellye's tribute post for you (you may have to scroll down a bit on her lj).

A Robin Hood theme? How fun!

And, oh my goodness, happy birthday to your girls and I, too, have kept HI and those of our Fellowship there in my thoughts.
