fast forward several months

Good grief... I can't even complete routine BLOG entries... is it any wonder that I have made no progress on any other creative writing projects!? I would really like it if this were the year that I finally pull it all together. Aside from having a loving family and healthy children, my top two lifelong ambitions--the goals I want for myself above all other personal goals--are to a) be a writer and b) be thin. It is sad and ironic that I am neither.

I mean, YET!
