Life keeps getting in the way of this blog. So far this year, I have broken three front teeth in a bad encounter with some Scottish shortbread, been hit in the chest by a tree felled by Practical Man (he's NOT a lumberjack and he's definitely not okay!) and now this week put my car out of action by taking out the front of it while reversing down my driveway. No, it doesn't make sense...but I have a very steep driveway, my car slid in the rain on to a wall and then when I tried to get it off the wall, crrunch.
Add to that PhD deadlines, other exams and my mother, in the UK, being diagnosed with dementia, I'm kind of thinking I'd like to rewind this year and start again!
As I am always saying, back soon.

Ouch! It's been a tough few months for you so far! Hope things get better soon! And the car --- at least you were reversing. Last year I hit another car driving straight out of the driveway. Sigh. Vision was blocked thanks to parked cars...
Whew - you've got a lot going on. That broken teeth shortbreak incident? What the heck? But I should talk. I once broke a tooth eating a cheese doodle.
Here's to a better 2nd half of the year.
