LJ, you're in a tough place right now, don't let yourself get too drained.
I'm living in interesting times, in some ways. Studying TEFL, in the process of putting out another book, my permanent job ends in two weeks, I'm selling my house (which means tons and tons of housework, never my strong suit) and all going well changing my life completely over the next couple of months. Sometimes a little less interesting would be good, too.

Not sure where I am going with that question. Doesn't help me in the slightest, unless you can tell me you once did have a messy fella under your roof and tactfully sorted the problem.

A bear rug in front of a fire.Why is that such a romantic image? The dancing firelight, the rough fur, maybe.
