[Image] Howdy! I sure have gotten a little behind on blogging. My goal is to get in three posts a week, but it's been almost a week since I've last posted! I feel like the ancient bristlecone above--reaching out in lots of directions and without any extra energy. Winter is supposed to be the quiet time, right? I'm still waiting!

I have to admit, I haven't been blogging not because I've been away from the computer. I've been on the computer quite a bit. Writing, organizing photos for a photo book, and dare I say it, shopping. Yep, I'm addicted to Internet shopping. I keep telling myself that if I lived in the city, I would be spending more on impulse shopping. Of course, it's fairly easy to cover a lot of virtual world in a short amount of time! Needless to say, I think we might get our Christmas shopping done early this year. Sometime soon I will try to tear myself away from the deals and post more photos. But right now, I better go check for that next deal...
