Long time, no post

Did you think I'd moved away and left no forwarding address? The thought has crossed my mind lately but I'd take my blog and blog friends with me. I promise.

My grandmother died around 3:30 on Sunday morning, November 20, and my brain has been on overload since then, so no blog posts! Since my mother's gone, my aunt needed as much help as we could give her (possibly more, but you have to work with what you've got, right?). For most of her life, my grandmother lived near Mountain View which is about 2 hours from Little Rock. When you add in storms of monsoon proportions with flash floods and closed interstates, it gets even more adventurous. Throw in several "Crooked and steep next 17 miles" signs and funeral homes in three different places, and I was pooped before everything was taken care of.

Oh, yeah, and then there was a holiday too. Basically, what I'm saying here is that I'm still pooped. I expect to remain in this condition for a bit, but I'm going to pick back up the posts. Expect to see lots of Jack the dog posts!
