And then life struck.

We honestly meant it when we said that we intended to update every week, really we did...  Then I got sick, and the next weekend we took a road trip, and the next weekend neither of us remembers what happened, but the blog slowly slid off of our radar.  Thanks to a number of serious changes to our regular schedule, though, we're hoping to be posting more regularly soon.

You probably know that I have been working at a local coffee shop for the past five months; you may also know that I am allergic to caffeine.  In the past, I had only experienced a negative reaction when I actually drank a caffeinated beverage, but over the past few months I have gotten to the point where merely being around espresso makes me ill.  For the sake of my health, I am leaving my job at the coffee shop, and just yesterday evening was hired as part-time secretary for the new pastor of the parish where we were married.  The part-time hours will be nice: more time for cooking and cleaning, for my freelance work, and for the blog!
