Hello and Happy New Year! I’m so happy to be here today. I went for a while without posting, and it wasn’t because I lacked inspiration—I actually have two Christmas posts half written (I guess I’ll save those for next year!). December simply took more out of me than I expected, and I had to allocate what energy I could muster to the most pressing things on my calendar.
We had a very fun holiday season filled with parties and concerts, a Christmas play, and fun home activities—but the entire month I was fighting allergies. Since I was a young child, I’ve known that when I start to feel an allergy “attack” coming on, I have to rest before it gets out of control. Rest is mandatory, and lots of fluids help. If I don’t catch it early, it usually turns into a full-blown mess that can take days—or even a week—to recover from.
