Closed until Further Notice

There's gotta be a blinky or a button to go on your blog that says that. Or at least something like "Closed until Christmas".

Do you ever feel like a hamster on the wheel, and when you get behind you go up for a loop and drop back down with a thud?

What happened? I had all the time I needed at age 14, so why should a one year make that much of a difference?

Maybe it's just that I just haven't learned the secret of diligence. :P

Well, there's the old British saying, "Grin and bear it."

Or, what the marines say, "No pain, no gain."

Or my all time favorite, what has become my life motto; "What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger."

Even scarves and Christmas gifts.
