Thanks to everyone who has given my family their love, support and prayers during this trying time. I appreciate it more than you know.

It's been about a week since I last signed in, and it's going to be another week before I have a chance to come back. My husband and I are going out of town Saturday morning, and I don't expect to have an internet connection where we're going. When we return, I expect things to still be pretty crazy.

~melaniemann will be coming to stay with us on the 24th and 25th, then our birthday's are the 30th and 31st. My dear sister, ~DCActress1, will be arriving in early August to visit too, so it may be some time yet before I am able to sit down and reply to all the notes and messages in my inbox.

Thanks to all my new watchers, I hope to be able to thank you personally before long, but please forgive the delay. It's been a rough month.

I was hoping to get in another feature before my subscription expires, but I just don't have the time to put that together. Got to get the house cleaned up and finish packing. If I decide to renew it when I get back, I plan on having a little contest of sorts. Nothing major, just something little and silly with the prize being features.

Speaking of prizes, I'm going to be giving away a three month subscription to the first one of my watchers to send me a _unedited screenshot of my 73,182 pageview. Good luck to ya'll!
