I didn&#8217;t even blog yet about the fabulous wedding, which ALL of my brothers and sisters attended.<\/p>\n<p>The vacation came at the perfect time for me.  I was able to sleep most mornings, and get going for the afternoons, which was perfect at that stage in my healing.<\/p>\n<p>One thing the stroke did for me &#8212; I&#8217;m getting more sleep.  Because I have to!  One of my New Year&#8217;s Resolutions was to get 50 hours of sleep per week, so I was keeping track.  Well, most weeks I wasn&#8217;t quite making it &#8212; until the stroke hit.  Now I&#8217;m exceeding that goal.  Not getting too much else done, but you can&#8217;t have everything, right?<\/p>\n<p>I did manage recently to catch up on writing reviews for all the books I&#8217;ve read.  So now I have 45 reviews to post.  And since then, I&#8217;ve read more books that I want to review.<\/p>\n<p>All this is to say that life is full these days &#8212; so full, I don&#8217;t have time to write about it.  Let&#8217;s see, I still haven&#8217;t written about the rest of my vacation, my trip to Seattle for KidLitCon, the SCBWI Conference, a gloriously beautiful drive to West Virginia to track down my murdering great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather, another trip to the ER, and some other Autumn walks.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I&#8217;ll see what I can do.  Just thought I&#8217;d post about the fact that I don&#8217;t have time to post!  Now I&#8217;ll hit the bed and hope for a longer entry tomorrow&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My last post on this Sonderjourneys blog was in the middle of my wonderful Oregon vacation.
