How long!?

Wow! Coming up on two months since I wrote anything in this blog.

I'll bet no-one missed me ;-)

Lots of changes have been happening in my personal life - since I had a month off from work in January, to be precise.

During that month (off on sick leave for a very bad leg condition) I spent much more time with my wife than at any other time in our 33 years of marriage - either I was working or she was working, and we never spent this much time together - ever.
My wife is not currently employed ( I will not say "doesn't work" because keeping a house is hard work!) and suffers from arthritis. How badly, I only just appreciated in that month off.
Long story short, my working hours are soon to be drastically reduced. While this will mean a dramatic reduction in income, I am hoping it will lead to a better quality of life for my wife (and me!).

So in about a month or so, you might see an increase in activity in this site, and perhaps the Project 52 and Project 12 can be resurrected from the deep, deep, deep hibernation they are in - for which you (the one subscriber I had) have my apologies.
Some times "real life" just gets in the way....
