I started this blog nearly four years ago after I'd just had my first baby and a previous employer asked me to work part-time from home. It was an easy decision (I'd been with the company for 8 years and knew the job in and out) made easier by the luck o' the Irish: my newborn slept great day and night (Don't hate me. My second child more than made up for that good fortune.). For nearly four years I worked part-time, during the day, when Delaney (and eventually Waylon) napped. My nights were free for important things like watching Survivor and reading the latest Marian Keyes novel. But not any longer. I left my part-time job about a month ago and began working to build the consulting business I'd started on the side a year ago. Now my nights are spent draped over my laptop, eyes blurring into swollen slits as I work long and passionately into the night nurturing my new venture.
Lucky for me, business is good. But it's busy. It's oh so busy! Jeff Probst is starting to wonder where I am (Jeff, don't fret. You can always find me on Twitter!). That's why this blog's gotten a bit dusty (BlogHer ads cut me off!). But it's comforting to know that the ol' blog's still here, keeping the light on, waiting for me to fill it with my deepest thoughts, my most inane chatter, whenever the urge strikes and the time allows.
I'll check in from time to time to give updates on Delaney and Waylon who both change so much each day that I realize I'm missing out by not documenting it all here. I'll be back. At least until the new Marian Keyes comes out. Oh, wait. I'm starting Dooce's new book tonight so it may be a while until you hear from me after all...
