Wait.
What???

Hi everyone,  

The kids were off Friday for President's Day. That means I was ON to watch them for the few extra hours (on top of my few normal Friday hours). And this week is a bank holiday. Which means I would normally be taking Friday off (for several reasons, but mostly that most of my audience is still Stateside). But things have been so topsy turvy lately, with cancer recovery and Covid exposures that I think I'm going to forego the usual Tuesday report and next week's update schedule, and instead really try my best to get some solid(ish) posts up for the last half of February. 

It's time to get back to work. I know most of my patrons want me to recover, but I'm starting to see "Never updates" in the exit interviews of some who are leaving, and my income (with the cost of living here) means I'm still supplementing with childcare—I need to be making more, not less.

Still, for everyone who follows our updates closely enough to know that we're about to go off the rails of our update schedule, we ARE.
