Those of you who are regular readers know that I've been absent from myspaceland the last month. After big snow #3, we were hit again with a few little snows, and some really cold weather. School started on Jan 16, and I went to Shambhala Mountain Center on Jan 16-17, and came back for a few days to endure the crazy start-of-semester stuff. I was back at SMC Jan 24-26, then at Copper Mountain for Miko's bday 27-29. Then back to work for a day and a half before heading back to SMC on Jan 31-Feb 1. So, you can see, I haven't been home much, and while I'm at SMC I have no email or cell access. I leave town again on Jan 7, and I'll be gone until Jan 13. When I come back, I go back to SMC on the 14th!

I just wish I had the forethought to find a way to staff the monthlong program so I wouldn't do all the back and forth...maybe next year.

So, for those who have been worried about my hope this explains why I've been hard to reach and acting like a spiced molasses cookie.
