Welcome to weather in the NW! We get that all the time…ALL…THE…TIME. Just get the kids some rain boots, rain jackets, rain hats, thick socks, and go puddle stomping! Did I mention that you and Chris need the same apparel? It makes for an amazing fashion statement…but it helps the kids sleep like well…kids. Totally worth it! Knowing you though, you probably are all set on the NW attire? Do you guys consider yourselves NW or just N?

Love you.

Loren, as many as you want, when I’m a rich and famous author. Or else I’ll send along a pile of self-published rock-bottom remainders.

Vieve, that’s adorable. This is a story about a girl who somewhat mistakenly ends up in an English Ph.D. program, and I’ve been working on it (well, sporadically) for years. Hopefully, I’ll make some headway on it this month …

Jordana, alas, Day 2 was far less pleasantly snuggly (the snuggles were demanded with whines, and punctuated by mini-tantrums). Does crankiness mean she’s getting better?

Sorry Ngaire is sick. But it does tend to make them more cuddly.

what sort of novel are you working on? and is it just this month (to be picked up again next November)?

Turns out that Bryan and Theo are both big snugglers when down with the flu. Bryan in complete delirium kept hugging me closer and reassuring me how much he loves me (every few seconds) as did Theo with the addition of “You are a good mama. Not bad. Good.”

It’s nice to have affirmations, particularly when they are accompanied by the sweats, chills, and occasional heat-induced vomiting. And of course, endless cuddles.

I will demand — demand, I tell you! — autographed copies. Plural.

So are we going to get to read the fruits of your NaNoWriMo endeavors?

Plowing rhubarb? The thought makes me want to cry too.

Not too sure … we’re still trying to figure out what we’re missing; then we’ll contact the moving co. and see if they have any ideas.
