It’s Thanksgiving time! As most of your know, I have written a book about Thanksgiving. As a result, I’ve been busy doing my Author Visit Dog and Pony Show. This has made me less available on this blog and elsewhere.
Sorry about that. Once I finish sleeping off the effects of the dark meat, I promise my behavior will change.
In the meantime, allow me to get into the spirit of the holiday by telling you all how thankful I am for having so many funny, thoughtful, and supportive blog pals. You make doing this great fun.
Enjoy your holiday!
And nothing makes a holiday more enjoyable than giving a deserving author some residuals! Just sayin’.
At the start of 2015, I posted six resolutions that I planned to accomplish over the coming year. By the first week of February, I had nailed two of them:
Needless to say, I was feeling rather good about myself. In fact, I was smug. “Ha ha!” I chuckled. “I have 11 months to accomplish four more measly resolutions. Easy-peasy lemon squeezy!”
The remaining resolutions didn’t seem all that tricky, either:
Resolved: I shall neither form opinions nor comment on the opinions of others until I have finished at least one big mug of morning coffee.
Resolved: I will meet more blog buddies in person.
Resolved: I will become a Laundry Master.
Resolved: I shall write early and often.
But, then, resolution-wise, I kind of hit a wall. February became March and March became April. During that time I was unable to put anything in the done pile.
That is, until last week. My lovely wife, Ellen, with great ceremony, presented me with the following two documents (suitable for framing).
Woo! (Click to see larger.)Double woo! (Click to see larger.)
Thank you, my love! I am honored and touched. And I can now see the light at the end of the resolution tunnel.
