I Really Missed Everyone – What’s Going on with You?

In more ways than one (more ways than 5, in fact), these last couple of weeks have been a bit stressful around here. I wrote very little as I worked to fix the server problems, but at the end of last week, things started getting back on track.

This weekend, I decided to shut down my computer for the full two days and put everything out of my mind. Well, at least I tried – as an entrepreneur, it’s really hard to make your mind stop thinking about your business, but for the most part, it worked. We went out on the boat on Saturday and if you can believe it, I thought a lot about you, my readers.

As we went from the Morris boat launch down to Starved Rock, I found that I wanted to share…

• That the 17-year locusts were so loud that you could hear them over the boat motor even when we were going top speed.
• As we passed this beautiful campground on the river, I wished we could all sit around a big campfire and just hang out with each other.
• I’m excited to be working with new advertising client Amazon Grocery
• That Liz Strauss and I are going to hang out tomorrow night at Jeff Pulver’s Summer Party at the Chicago House of Blues
• That my kids are growing like weeds – my oldest daughter grew two full inches in the last nine months and my 4 year old is bigger than some of the kids in the first grade
• And I’m really excited to be working outside right now because I finally cleaned off my porch this last weekend.

As I sit here on our porch and write, I want to know what’s going on with you. I wish you were here and we were sitting over coffee (or tea, or whatever) and we could chat about your blogs, your new projects, and what’s going on in your lives – friend to friend.

So I’m hoping you will drop by sometime soon to catch up, because I definitely missed you.
