Happy New Year!

Well, we made it to 2025.

2024 was a huge struggle for me, especially the last month. December was filled with challenges and trials. Late deadlines, health issues, and an exploding hot water line that flooded the kitchen and destroyed hours of holiday baking.

I never finished the Krampus book I intended to have out in early December, and I am literally still working on my holiday cards right now. I’m not even half done. Since each one takes me between 30-60 minutes, I’ll probably be finishing in February at this point. Ah well.

I think it’s pretty obvious why the blog was quiet in December. I have several articles in various stages of completion, but none of them are short or quick, so I just haven’t had the chance to finish any of them. And this year, unfortunately, is going to be just as busy as last year. Eek.

So, I’m going to get to them as soon as I can, but I did want to check in, so you know I’m still here and active. I hope your holidays, whichever you celebrate, were lovely, and I hope the new year is filled with the best things for you.

Oh, and in the meantime, don’t forget you can always drop suggestions for things you’d like to see!
