Just wanted to post a brief note to say that I had the best of intentions to start posting and picturing regularly again this new year. I know I let it go towards the end of last year – and I was truly touched by those fellow bloggers who asked after me when I went missing.
Trouble is, I’ve also had to make some stiff rules for the monster-child’s behaviour, and one of the consequences of bad behaviour is to remove the internet from the house. True to form, he hasn’t been behaving well, and the house has been internet-less for a while now.
I just popped into the library today to grab a few minutes on the computer, but, as aforementioned son has now lost the internet until he completes a full week of school without incident, I don’t foresee being able to post my own photos or snippets of literary mastery for the next millenium… or at least until I present him with a set of luggage for his 16th birthday!
But, for the record, it’s snowing here, so you’ll just have to imagine the magical macros of ice and the ethereal images of the silent wintery woods.
Best wishes to you all.
See you next time I hit the library 🙂
Alice through the Macro Lens 
Keep taking the photos and we’ll look forward to seeing them when things get ironed out at home. Glad you had a moment at the library to say Happy New Year! I miss seeing your images, but I’m glad you’re standing strong as mum and doing right by yourself and your boy.
*hugs*
Ditto that 🙂
Double ditto. I’ve been worried about you – it’s good to hear things are more under control. Teenage boys are a challenge…I have two grown sons. Keep enforcing your rules, and we’ll be delighted to see you when you can show up.
Imagining the snow and glad the library will do to keep us updated on your progress.
Yeah my sister is going through something similar at the moment. Let’s hope he does a full week soon so you can start posting again
Missing you! Take the pictures anyway; you deserve your nice walks. You can always post them for us later.
Good luck Alice, stay the course!
I’m looking forward to seeing more beautiful pictures when you next manage to get on the internet!
Ditto on all of the above. How about a word to see if you and your son are getting better?
