I know I haven't written in ages, but I have been around, mostly busy with the children, whilst Appa is away.

I have been on twitter, and facebook, taking numerous breaks to keep my sanity functioning. Not to mention having the opportunity to talk with other adults. The hardest part of this year, is just being lonely.

Some have mentioned how confusing that is, especially since I have the kids, but to be looked after, cared for, even just to be held while falling asleep, it does get lonely.

I joke that when our family is together, I am going to get a hotel room for myself, have a drink, watch tv, and enjoy a hot meal. A hot meal where I get to sit down and enjoy hot meal for me.

Yet, I cannot wait to cook a meal for C. To watch him enjoy a meal with our entire family. Luna included.

It has been a very long year, but soon, we will be together, and it will be worth it.
