Aaaaaannnd we're back, folks.

I dunno what it is about being in the Midwest, but for the past 8 months or so, I have been in a funk.  I think I had left my blogging muses somewhere in The South--I failed to make a space for them in the horribly-over-crowded mini-van, and so my blogging inspiration suffered.  But after a fabulous week of lounging on a beautiful Gulf Coast beach and spending a few hours with a few friends from The South, I think my muses found me, hopped into my slightly-less-crowded mini-van, settled comfortably into our home here in the Midwest and returned blogging to my life.  Holla!
