If you're planning on hunkering down as well, here are some things you can read - just in case you missed them:
- The Missing Piece is short tale about how we are still seeing hints of Joey in our lives.
- I responded to an article that I read about something so horrible and unthinkable, but something that I could understand and consider. Tough stuff.
- I also shared the tale of Stripey Kitten's return to kindergarten in Joey's stead.
I had two posts on Mamalode this month. Please read and share if they moved you:
- Working the Crowd is a cute story about how Slim "played" soccer when he was little.
- What if I Can't Do It? is a post about children and their insecurities that resonated with a lot of people
My guest on Grief Stories this month talked about what it's like to deal with a parent's chronic illness.
I have installed a different commenting form on my site called Disqus. This may look familiar to some of you since a lot of websites use it. If you don't have a Disqus account, the first time you go to comment, it will prompt you to create an account. If you are not a blogger you don't have to put in a website - just create your name (or use your real name so I know who you are!) and start commenting! I would love to see comments from those of you who regularly comment on Facebook or to me in person. Let me know if you think it's easier than the Blogger form.

And finally, a BIG announcement - I am going to be published in another anthology! This one took me a bit out of my comfort zone as it is humor. AND there are so many funny and Super Cool Lady Writers in this book that it is just a little intimidating. The book is not going to be out until mid-March, but you can pre-order it now. Check out "I Just Want to Be Alone" on Amazon and get it TODAY!
