Time is flying by as it counts down to the many milestones coming for my family and I. It seems, often, that it is longer and longer between the time that I am able to find the time to visit here and blog, but things are moving by so quickly. I am due to close on my house in less that two weeks. We'll have a new home, and it there will finally be somewhere that I can call home and raise my children. They grow and change with each passing day, and I look foward to having what they will remember as the home.

I finally made it in to the doctor to talk with them about my allergy trouble. It seems my doctor has heard of people who are allergic to the cold, but having never seen a real case he is unsure of how to treat it. I've been asked to give him a couple of weeks so that he can find the best course of action the will cause the least harm. Some cases require steroids, and if this is the case, I'll refuse all treatment. There are too many long term issues with this type of treatment, so I'm hoping that it may be treated with an antihistamine that is not as commonly used. My fingers are crossed, and I hope for some relief. Right now I'm finding it difficult to even take my kids out to play depending on the weather, so hopefully something will work.

I continue to try and find the time to write, but that has not been the most simple of things lately. I hope to finish another chapter or two in my story during the next few days. I'm off for two of them, and I am working out when I can just sit and write as I would like, rather than trying to just copy ideas as they come to me.

I find myself wondering where the time goes as I try to fit into my life all the things that are important to me. My changing jobs will allow me more freedom to focus on the things that are my true passion in life. I never planned to have a love for writing, but I find more and more that I miss the time spent typing away on the story that is turning within me. The characters are pressing at me, fighting to have their tale told. Not only on my current one, but on another that I've yet to start. I've now found a way to organinze my ideas so they are not lost to the passing days, but I still wish for the time to pen their story. If you normally read my blog, then you know I often fill my world with much more than it can retain, but I've resigned myself to the fact that this is how I choose to live. I need, and desire, the stress that it produces, and that is how my best work is achieved.

I am off for the evening, but I hope that all is well for everyone here. I'll try to update as often as possible, but the coming months may find me here less that I would like. When I move, there is likely to be a hiatus and I do not know when I will get internet access for my new home. We hope to keep bills at a minimum to start since we will be supporting two houses, so I'm not sure when I will return after that. I'll be on before then, but my absence is coming much more quickly than I would like.

Take care and much love,
Meg
