Once again I will be on sporadically between having two part time jobs, Bible study on Thursday nights, and helping out with two American Heritage Girl troops in town once a week.

I'm also giving NaNoWriMo a try this year, and after listing off everything above, I think I may have bit off more than I can chew! :shock: I do feel good that I have written a tiny bit yesterday and this morning. :D Hopefully I can keep it up.

Anyhoo, I mis you guys, but life will not allow me to be on much this month...or next month. (My second part time is seasonal retail. *fears Black Friday* We'll see if I stay there or not once the season is over.) :P

Aw, I'll miss your presence in the forums. :(

I wish you the best in vanquishing your jobs and NaNo. :D

We'll miss you, Calen. I know how it is when life gets so busy. Take care of yourself and let us know how you get on. :)

UPDATE:

Helloooo! Unfortunately I haven't been able to get on as much as I had wanted, but isn't that the problem with everyone these days. :blush:

I have been very busy working my two part time jobs which averages me at about 55+ hours a week. (My office job being from 12PM-5PM and my seasonal retail job being from 6PM-12:30AM five days a week.)

Seeing my work schedule and lack of time and slow inspiration I have dropped out of NaNoWriMo with a paltry 209-ish words on paper. :bawl: (By the way, love the new smiley.) ;) I wrote a little last night before going to my retail job on my fan fiction just to write, but that's about it.

My seasonal position will be over the first week of January and then I'll have a little more time since I will only have one job and attending the community college part-time. (Only two classes thankfully.)

Until next time!

~Calen

Life is annoying that way, but it can't stay busy forever. :)

*raises goblet of grapejuice* To your swift return!

I'M BAAAAAACK!!! :D

Last night was my last night at my seasonal retail job. It was a struggle and a blessing, and I'm glad the Lord walked me through it. ^^

As for the spring semester, I am continuing to take my year off. I'll be working my usual office job, possible taking some more Community Ed classes, and I'd like to knit, crochet, and sew some objects to sell online for some extra cash. (Gotta make rent.) ;) Of course, I shall try to post pictures of my projects.

In the meantime, I will be picking up my slack from the past 2 1/2 months and get back to Moderating like a good girl.

I've missed you! And there's so many new members! :D

~Calen, the Returned

Woohoo! Yes! Thanks for the welcome back! :D

@Jonathan: Hopefully. ;) I haven't drawn since October, so I may need to practice a bit before posting anything. XD

Thank you, Elanor! To be truthful, I'm glad I was missed some. I like to be a part of this amazing Holy Worlds family. ^^

There's a lot of things I want to accomplish this winter and spring, but hopefully I can get some writing and drawing in along with the other textile arts I will be doing.

*hugs Airi back tightly* I missed you to!

@Azlyn: Oooh, yeah. :cool: It was nice to get some some cleaning in last night. Although, I must say, it's been very well kept up by Jonathan while I was away.
