Holy Cow, What Happened to February???

If I said the month just got away from us, would you believe me??  Well, it did!

I just looked at the last blog I posted on Feb. 4 and thought, "Really??  That's what was on my mind that day?"  And then life took a sudden left turn.  Next thing I know, I look up and it's Feb. 28; I'm hanging out at Wolf's Mom's house, and we're waiting to get into our new "den."  We have spent much of the last month putting out fires, playing taxi, untying knots, figuring out plan B (or C, sometimes D, and on at least one occasion E) and trying like hell to stay grounded and connected.

One example.... For Valentine's Day, I planned a surprise get-away for the two of us.  I was going to try to keep the whole shebang a secret until it unfolded around him, but then I realized Wolf really doesn't do surprises very well, so I told him there was a surprise coming.  LOL  But I didn't want to give it all away, so all he knew was that we were going away overnight.  We planned to leave our place at 3:00 pm.  He didn't know much more than that.  But, as our luck always has it, we had a family crisis that didn't get handled and secured until almost 7 pm.  We did get our overnight away, but honestly, it was tinged with some residual aggravation that we had lost 4 hours of alone time, and in making up for that, we lost 4 hours of asleep time.  LOL  And returned home the following day still tired and a little annoyed, instead of relaxed and refreshed.  However, I highly recommend The Corinthian B & B in Dallas, TX for a little  R & R.  Ask for the Mayor's Suite.  It's the garage.  LOL.  OK, it's the "carriage house."  The really awesome manager saw a need in Wolf's face as we walked into our overnight home away from home, and returned in about 2 minutes with 2 frosty beers in hand.  We wanted to hug him!!  (We didn't; we were afraid it would scare him.)

I am not exaggerating  when I say the whole month has been one crisis after another, one changed plan after another, or ideas scraped due to lack of time, energy or give a f***.

We shall both endeavor to do a better job of blogging this month.  I, for one, need some return to the life that we used to have.  It wasn't glamorous, but it was ours. 

until then,
peace out,
