Another possibility

Shannon and Clark have covered almost all the possibilities as to why I have not kept up with posting on this site. Almost. Here are another few possibilities. First, blame the Chargers. I was going to post something the day after the first playoff game, but there had to be a proper period of mourning. Every time I thought I might be able to talk (blog?) through it, the whole thing fell down around my ears like an over-heavy helmet of disappointment. Overdramatic? Did you see the game? Healing began when the Patriots lost last Sunday, but it is still a sore subject. I am currently trying to work up a fondness for the Colts. You see my dilemma?
Another possibility: I have had a cold. Pretty weak. In and of itself, this would not hinder my typing.
Another possibility: Rob has been in the throes of finals. He is a senior in high school and was not taking any challenging classes, so finals should have been a breeze - except he failed to realize that even in Design and Mixed Media he had to actually turn in projects in order to pass. We have been in high production mode. We are talking Andy Warhol recreated in food sculpture. Which brings me to:
Another possibility: Jana and Lynlee are here for a few weeks. It is too cold in Utah, so they are basking in our 76 degrees today, happy to be out of the snow. With the joys of the toddler come the extra responsibilities. Lucky for me, I get to play with Lynlee while Jana works on Design and Mixed Media, as well as Photography 3-4. In fact, we have all worked hard with the exception of Lynlee, who prefers to line up her plastic "dinassey's" (dinasaurs) and watch Mickey Mouseclub.
But you should know that as I visited my long lost blogspot today in order to put a couple of favorite websites on the list I noticed I had LOTS more comments - and that is what ultimately drove me out of the Charger funk and pushed me to write again.
Is the block over? Maybe. But Jana and Lynlee are here until President's weekend - and the beach is calling. Thanks, Shannon and Clark, for your clever and uplifting posts. I appreciate the connection! And it is helping to read about basketball.
