Hard to get back

Well... it's officially a "dry spell". I managed to write one sentance in the past week... I think. I rarely find it hard to slip away to visit with my chars, but recent event make visiting with them difficult at best. I can't even think of what else to put here.

Last weekend was the memorial for my father, who passed earlier this year. I don't know what else there is to say on that. It was wonderful and painful all at the same time. A lot of memories and kind words; and family. We also took a day and went sight seeing. Hey, hubby hadn't seen D.C! One day just isn't enough though... in case you were wondering. The reason I even mention this is that we visited the Lincoln Memorial; which I'd never seen.While there I picked up a book of quotes by Lincoln.

They aren't flowery or overblown. They are simple.. mostly.. and very powerful. They impart truths in a stright forward way that makes a deeper impact upon a person. Some of his words can be applied to many walks of life, not just politics or war.

So... here we are... trying to find our way back to words and ideas and writing. I'll get there... there is no deadline, except for what I impose upon myself.
