Congratulations on your baby girl. I remember well how much change occurs overnight. And it's great that she's healthy, that's the best one can hope for.

Sorry to hear about the passing of your grandmother, and of your father's illness, and your DH's grandmother's failing health. That truly is a lot on your plate right now. I'll be keeping you and yours in my thoughts. And I'm glad that your daughter can bring some solace to those around her. She truly is a blessing.

Hugs

Esther

Oh, and of course, I look forward to your post once you translate it. What a beautiful memory you're making.

Late to the party as usual.... -- Chessie >^..^<, 16:03:13 02/05/11 Sat

I have been back to work for a year now after almost 2 years unemployed. Those two years were kind of strange--while I lost one of my baby brothers and my grandmother, I also had time to take care of my in-laws as they battled various illnesses and surgeries. But also in those two years, my writing output increased--I actually finished two novel-length stories and am still editing them.

But I went back to work. My daily output dropped down to a little bit a day except for once a week (Sundays, when the DH was at work) where I could write away. There is a lot of overtime involved now, so even the little bit I did daily is impossible to get to. That leaves me Sundays, and sometimes it's hard to get back onto the horse and ride because I am so tired--or something happens that I can't sit and write, like if I go to visit my family or something.

Hopefully everyone has more output than I do! The spirit is willing, but damn this flesh is weak... ;)
