I have You Capture shots to post yesterday.

They are still in the card in my camera, unedited and yet to be uploaded.

I have answers to your questions about the Peppers and this pregnancy. Right here, in this one corner of my mind where the words sit and push each other around until I spit them onto a page.

I have grief and joy and beauty all lingering in vapors, waiting to be liberated by the phrases and rollicking sentences that escape through this keyboard.

And they all take second fiddle to two things:

-         the health and well being of me and my babies

-         the ability to provide a living for me and my babies

We’re having quite the week, and although we will be fine, sometimes the reality of being the sole present executive of a corporation weighs heavily on me. This is one of those times. My sanity is often preserved by this space but I cannot spend time here that must be spent putting a roof over the heads of me and my staff.

I might be sleeping or eating instead of writing for now, per doctor’s orders they come first. But the writing won’t be kept at bay for long and fires will be put out so the simple pleasures that stave off madness may return. In fact, I believe I just stole a few minutes for that today.
