Hectic spell, now for a few days calm.

For the last few days I've been run ragged trying to catch up on things. It is normally hectic after Christmas with family birthdays to account for but this year, I had to vector in a doctor's appointment after nearly choking to death between Christmas and New Year and a surgery visit for a breathing test today. 

Add to that my daily writing schedule and some printing for a friend's birthday present and then all of a sudden -- it's the last day of the month -- and I forget to get my magazine, mass panic tonight and a mad dash out but I got the last but one copy.
