I've been doing everything... except writing.

Hi my name is Dana..
I'm also known as the homesteading housewife.
I used to blog religiously here.
This month I've been so busy doing everything except writing.

I've gotten some e-mails from people asking if I was dead.
I'm not dead, I've just been out of sorts lately you could say.

This is always a busy time of the year.
Getting ready for the holidays.
Dealing with the kids being home from school.
But the past few weeks I've had a couple other things going on besides the norm.

The-man-of-my-dreams no longer works out of the country, he's working at home now. (major adjustment!)

We got worker #1 all signed up for college. (ugh! there is not enough wine in the world to make THAT easy!)

Worker #2 decided that his 18 years of life experience has prepared him to deal with life in the real world, and he moved out in the middle of the night (like an adult), two days before Christmas. (Merry Christmas!)

My new company, (3-Leaf Marketing) is growing and doing well, but keeping me very busy.

The Man-of-My-Dreams bought me my dream car for Christmas!
A Jeep Wrangler!
Seriously, when I was 6, all I wanted in life was a purple Jeep Wrangler with a white top that came off. 
When I was 16, my dream was to have a silver Jeep Wrangler, jacked up with big tires, and hot pink & teal shocks.
Now that I'm 38, all I want to do is paint my beautiful Black Jeep Wrangler pink. (it's Gonna happen! Don't you worry! I WILL have my pink Jeep!)

I've been busy working on launching my brand-new site, Punched By Pink, this site gonna be pure fun!
I can't wait and I think you'll love it as much as I will. 
Stay tuned it'll be launching very soon.

During the holiday season I developed several new recipes that I'll be sharing very soon.

I've taken a ton of pictures that I plan on posting.

I have several funny stories involving Brutus the English bulldog, my children, and baby pigs, a stubborn beef calf who won't get in his trailer, tangled Christmas lights that don't work, trips to the tattoo parlor, the perils of accidentally buying diet Big Red instead of regular Big Red,and fun stories about our RV excursions at the lake.

Thank you for sticking with me this long.
And believe me when I say I'm coming back with a bang!

I hope you and yours had a wonderful holiday season.
And I wish you nothing but the best for the new year, we all could use it!

Love,
    Dana, The Missing Homesteading Housewife.
