Holy Cow!

I've been gone awhile. Not AWOL for no reason or laziness, but because my life has been upside down and backwards for a month or so.

First, we moved my sister from Arizona to live with us. She has health issues and she lived alone. In the last few months she's been in the hospital twice, once with angina and the second time with a mini-stroke.

Then my beloved mother-in-law passed away suddenly. I am glad we were here to give my father-in-law and sister-in-law some support.

As things started to settle down, I received a comment yesterday from fellow blogger, Debbie @ Dining with Debbie and who also hosts Arkansas Bloggers, congratulating me for being mentioned in a post titled "Blogs to Watch" in the Eat Arkansas section of the Arkansas Times.

Huh?? was my first reaction. Then What?? Me?? Are you serious??

Of course, I had to go look and sure enough, there I was...plain as day...mentioned in Kat Robinson's article. Completely unexpected!

I'd like to give a big thank you to Kat Robinson for including my blog. I hope you will visit Kat's blog at the Arkansas Times. She also writes Tie Dye Travels, a syndicated column and blog which chronicles her travels within and outside of Arkansas.

As for me, well, in the immortal words of Arnold Schwarzenegger in The Terminator: "I'll be back."
