I wish there was a way to put a big red sash across my page saying that I was on a hiatus. That would make things so very much easier, ne? Well, either way that's how it's going to be for a while. Each year I take some time out just for me to find a balance. It's a saving grace and has kept my bio-polar disorder at bay for four years now.

Lately I've been running from one end to the other without much success to speak of. I've got emails at OKC that I keep telling myself I'll answer. I've got emails at my gmail account I need to answer. I've got a business website for my family apiary that I need to work on. I've got the accounts I need to update. I've got this poor ignored that I've not updated in ages. Yet at the moment, I feel almost overwhelmed by all of this. It reminds me of my car wrecks. And like the first one, I am getting out to take a deep breath and clear the air.

One: Free is on a vacation/road trip with his primary. While I miss him horribly, I know this is a good thing for everyone. They have time together that they need and I have time to get some sleep (okay, I admit it... I haven't gotten shit for sleep since his trip started), get some cleaning done as well as write. I've got a lot of thoughts running through my mind and I need to find a way to get it all down.

Two: My bedroom is a disaster. I've been pulling things out of every box, drawer and what-have-you to get all the useless rat-packed bullshit out. I've even set aside a few things to sell on Ebay (look for anathema.untamed). I also need to move my furniture. That and I am hoping to raise enough funds to get a VIP ticket for the Bernadette Peters concert on September first. The tickets are about two fifty and I don't really want to use any of my normal funds to do this.

Three: The office is looking a bit messy again. It won't take but an hour but I need to just buckle down and do it.

Four: My bathroom. I've been pricing new vanities and the like so, hopefully, in the next week or two I'll be starting to renovate my tiny bathroom into something more livable. I need to clean out this room as well and get rid of all the shampoos that wrecked my hair. Note: Pantene kills my hair. Bastards.

And there's still so much. I need to start my weekly hikes come hell or high water. I need to start (continue, really) eating better so I can get myself back down to a comfortable weight. Most say I'm not overweight and that it's just muscle. Well, most of it is but not all. It's not like I'm looking to lose some crazed amount, only about ten pounds or so.

So here I go. I'll be back in a week or so probably more. To anyone awaiting emails of any kind... sorry. It's not that I'm a bitch. I've just been overwhelmed by life. I'll be back when when I'm walking this tightrope a little better.
