Neglected

Guys, I know you feel neglected and abandoned and I'm so sorry about that. There are literally a million excuses in the book I can use. The fact that I have a new job along with a special surprise (I just received a kitten recently for a surprise gift) could be part of those excuses.

In truth, I don't think I've tried hard enough to keep up with this blog.

Now, don't get me wrong. I do try hard to at the very least, keep one post a week, but I could do more. I know I can.

So I just wanted to let you guys know I will try harder from now on and to let you know that I haven't neglected y'all. Things have been a little rough as of late.

Ready for the list of things that have happened? And let's bring out the time watch . . . Ready, set, go!

I recently was verbally assaulted by a student (who is strangely still in my classroom three days later). Another student threatened to blow the school up. I found out two of my students are homeless. One used to be a cutter. And another one of my students was touched in an inappropriate manner.

All of this on top of the fact that I still have a writing life to keep up (which I have started to market yesterday). And like I said previously, I have a new kitten at home with a very interesting story. But more about that when I get pictures and can dedicate a whole post for her.

She's my first kitten (I've always had dogs) and her name is Lex. 

She's kinda my sunshine in the darkness now. I know things have been glum this week, but she was the best surprise by far. 

Anyway, this post is just to let you guys and fabulous ladies know that I will try harder. I just have a lot of changes going on in my life. Please just bear with me!
