Time off.

Phew!  I'm right worn out with all these party posts... (and talkin' like I live in Louisiana or something...)
I admit it.  I didn't plan on the party series going all crazy and taking over my life for the past two weeks and it did.  Oh, it did.
I feel as if I've relived every single moment of my insane December which I was so very glad had ended.
Somehow, I survived all of winter pretty much unscathed and now have the supreme mother of all colds.  It's currently residing directly in my chest and it's all I can do to drag myself out of bed for the sake of the little ones.
You won't mind if I take a few days off, will you?
Of course, it doesn't help that the weather has decided to become decidedly UN-Wisconsin-ish.  May has come early as we reach 70 degrees - that hasn't happened EVER in my entire lifetime.  (which is so very looooong, remember?)  So, even though I feel like death, there has been a bit of this:

and less of this - You know, computering...
than in the recent past.  But I have big plans, people - BIG PLANS!  (have you ever read that book? You should.)  I'm not kidding.  As soon as I can get off this darn computer long enough to actually bring them to fruition.  Soon, my lovely readers, soon... (like next week...)


And I will leave you with this:
