I remember you fondly, and with much love, but I've mostly moved on.   I still am involved in GWYO, and do have notifications when a lot of you guys post, but mostly I am on Reddit, hanging out on the writing/fantasy subs there, and some on Facebook though not every day.   Twitter and I are still pals (hey_cee) but am not even there that much anymore.  I've been focusing on the writing and I realize the more time I waste on social media. the less time I have to write.  And... hardly anyone is here anymore, though I remain in touch with a lot of you via chat or email.   With that said, my email is cparagraphs@gmail.com.   Email me sometime!

I am also going to DragonCon this year!  So if you are and we haven't chatted about it, let me know.

Otherwise - that's about it.  I am about to hit 32k on my wip (YA fantasy), and my job is going very well though it is very demanding and keeps me whipped a lot.  I recently got a sizeable raise, which has made life MUCH easier (or will, once my son gets a new job - am supporting him right now so yeah, there goes the extra money!).    Fingers crossed he gets the vet tech position he is trying for.  He should find out today or Monday, or maybe tomorrow.  He has a wonderful girflriend named Jordan.  My daughter is doing great too and on her own, has her own place, has an amazing job that pays more than I make and is her dream job (and she earned that job, by golly!) - and has a great guy named Harry.  But tomorrow is July 4th and I am happy that just the three of us will be spending the day together!  Been TOO LONG!  Or there is other family or the SO's are there - which is lovely, but I am excited it will just be us.

So life is good.  This isn't a goodbye to lj entirely, but...  life is not here anymore really.   Wish it was different but alas.  I thought about using here to ramble about my book progress, but I am so wary of putting this story out before its time!  TRUST NO ONE IT IS CRAZY OUT THERE lol.  Anyway - perhaps later, dudes!!

You should check in with a post here every now and then. I like reading what you're doing! ;)

Also, DRAGONCON! I'm so excited.

I'm so glad your son and daughter are doing well. It's so hard for young people these days to get started on a career.

People keep saying LJ is dying, but I'm not planning to leave until they close the place down because it suits me, unlike Facebook and Twitter. I post here mostly for myself, so I can look back on what I did in previous years, but I do enjoy reading what others post about their lives so I hope at least some of what I post might interesting to them.

Emdash has convinced me I should just use my lj to post stuff to myself, so may do that with friends-lock. I follow you so I know when you post. I follow all the cool people like that. LOL. Thanks - the kids are very good! Not kids anymore. Hmm.

Oh wow, congrats to her! Tiff finished up her masters gee whiz it has been a year, has her dream job (for now though it is a realllly good job) and a fabulous guy but no rush to get married at all. I swear my son (also has a serious girlfriend) will get married first AND have kids first.

Well, her Canadian boyfriend kind of moved that one along. They've been together for years but his visa situation is now dicey and they are very in love and a great match for each other. No children for a long time, I'm guessing!
