Back From the Brink

I have been in a funk.

{ no kidding, you all say to yourselves }

I've avoided writing here because I felt that I had nothing to say. No witty yet profound musings, only random thoughts that seem better left to a Facebook status.

So, what's been going on in my life you ask?

First off, I started a new job. Well, it's actually an old job that I've gone back to. It feels a bit weird to walk into an office you remember so well, and feel like the new girl who already knows her job. I worked there for almost four years before I was laid off (due to the recession) and it feels like I'm slipping back into it quite well. My new co-worker is VERY quiet. I'm finding myself having a hard time with that.

I've been baking. A LOT. I'm honestly a little afraid to step on the scales.

But, oh lord has it been paying off.
Myself and a friend of mine have started up a baking business on the side. Last weekend we sold our goodies at a local craft fair and made a pretty penny. We also took lots of orders to do Christmas baking for people. So, needless to say, I have been very busy in all of my 'spare time'.

Here's hoping I'll have some cash to buy Mr Big something good this year.

Christmas is coming, and so is my new NIECE!
{ hi all }
Baby "Martha" as I've named her is cooking quite well inside of her mama Mo. She's measuring right on track, and should be here before April. I know that her big sister Kherrington is looking after her from heaven.

So, here I am, waking out of my funk, just in time for the holidays.

Hand me a carton of eggnog and a bottle of rum, and I'll get through this one way or another.
