Month of the Crazies

My Goodness I have miss you all!!!!! I just got of a horrible case of the Crazies, where everything in my life decided to flip over and turn on its ear. I haven't had a chance to sit and talk to you about what has been going on the past couple of months. I will start with the easy stuff.

My desktop with all my files decided to make way for computer heaven...finally. After all the trouble it caused me this summer, the thing finally crashed. I had my back up and wonderful laptop, but it was stolen last month. I pressed charges because I knew them of course, but it wasn't because of it was a laptop. It was because of what was on it. Thank goodness for my friend Rocky and my editor Wendi for their patience and understanding, and keeping emails!!! lol. I was able to recover Warriors Heart, even though I have to start over with the rewrite and edits. I also have a copy of Captive Desire on my slip drive as a PDF as well, blessings for that thing as well. No tears, I built me another one to replace my desktop. The laptop will have to come much later, when I get some more money. lol

God was really smiling on me on that one. Now on to the harder news. I separated from my husband. After thinking long and hard about what I wanted to do and what I needed to do, I made the choice to leave. Though it was hard as nothing is ever easy, I find that being by myself helps me to think more, when I'm not so tired. I miss my husband and I hope things workout for the best but in the end I don't think that being in a relationship where we are constantly at each other's throats about this and about that is not healthy for me, him, or the children. I didn't want them to see that growing up in that kind of environment and accepting the name calling and verbal and mental abuse on both ends, was an ok thing to do. Though me and my DH still talk, I can feel that I'm not ready to move past the hurt...yet. It's only been a month. Who knows how long it takes, but I'm not rushing back in to a bad situation all over again. I think I will take my time.

Well, that's me in a nut shell. Other than that, I have been giving my fingers a rest, but not my brain. It's ready to dish out a couple of new ideas. hehehe. Get Ready!!!!
