Yeah, sometimes RL just takes precedence whether you like it or not. I hope you at least managed to get some major things done in your house and garden, and caught up with your old friends.

My own absence has a similar explanation, except it's been mostly work, work, work for me. I thought things would get better after January, but so far they haven't much. Still, I've finally been able to make some time recently for working on my Seasonal Spuffy contributions. Mostly at the expense of sleep hours though! Anyway, I'm glad you liked the banners. I hope you'll also like what I'm preparing for my day!
