So…I can finally talk about our big news. We’re moving to London. That’s why the house is for sale (wanna buy it?) and why there’s a GIGANTICUS estate sale at my house today and tomorrow. We’re selling about 80% of what we own. It’s kinda crazy.
I won’t bore you with all the stresses and trials and tribulations and whatnot that’s preceded today. Honestly, it exhausts me just thinking about it. Today, I’m just hopeful and trying to hold on to the itty bit of sanity I have left (I’m also still UGH sick, but I’m dealing with it as best I can…thank heavens the hubby will be the one driving today so I can swig down some of my codeine cough syrup and collapse).
We’re all driving down to Florida today to stay with family, though the hubster will be coming back up to the Chicago area to finish out his current job. I’m sad to leave behind the wonderful neighbors that have become such friends and our neighborhood, but I am excited to experience whatever life is going to bring us in London. And hey, imagine little Max with an English accent! I didn’t think he could be any cuter, but I suppose it *is* possible.
I do have a backlog of mail from my PO Box to answer (just haven’t had time), so if you’ve written to me, please know that I *will* write you back. And anything you’ve sent there that I haven’t received yet will be forwarded on. I’ll be in Florida through the end of the year and will (hopefully) be setting up a visit in the Tampa Bay area around the first part of December.
And hey, if you’re in London, let me know!
I’ll need new peeps to hang out with! Anyone know what authors live over there? I need some writer peeps too!
In other news, I got a really lovely email today:
We offer a weekend poll at The Long and the Short of It romance reviews– we want to know which book or story sounds like the best read based on our reviews. The winning author gets a nifty button and the privilege of having their book or story featured at the top of that page the entire next week!
Your story ” Sucks to Be Me” was reviewed by us this week and is up for Book of the Week honor this weekend (voting runs from Saturday, November 13th through Sunday November 14th). We thought you might like to know. You can find the information here on Saturday:

So…if you can, vote for STBM starting Saturday! I won’t be able to post anything then since I’ll be on the road, but I figured maybe some of you can remember and vote for me
