I am sorry that I haven't written, just with family and Christmas and New Years, there just has not been time. I have not even had time to have reflections, let alone had time to write them here. I have had a couple of stories floating around in my head as I go to sleep at night and I hope to get those down soon. One is where, for some odd reason, a camera is involved. And of course, for all you Angel addicts, I have a story in mind where Angel's insecurities about herself get her into trouble again. If only I had more time!

Other than the lack of time, we McBrodens, including the new bump one, are all doing just fine. Mac told me before Christmas that He needed me to take care of myself, and while it hurt for a while and it has affected our intimacy, I think we are ok. I get angry at times and sometimes, I feel betrayed. But on an intellectual level, I know where He is coming from. He is so busy at work that half the time I am not sure He even remembers His own name. So of course, I obey. Sarah Jane and I have had so many people around us that we have not had time to feel lonley and we are taking another holiday in February. It's a 'girl's only' thing with the friend I went away with last year. She has a baby girl of her own now, so we can help each other out and hopefully spend half our time relaxing. I am really looking forward to it.

So right now I am looking forward to an exciting and bright new year!

Happy New Years!
