Sorry for disappearing there. I'm still getting used to this whole "blogging" thing, and it's really hard to come home after work and write something coherent and interesting.
I had a great weekend. My mom flew in this weekend, and we got to spend some time together. I haven't seen her in person since early September. Even though we skype almost weekly, it's still difficult. Skyping helps, but it's still not seeing her in person. We didn't do much, really, just kind of hung out at home. I showed her my crochet creations, and the painting I'm working on. I shared some great news with her, which I'll share here...
