I know that this rather like closing the barn door after the cow got out, but I thought that I ought to post anyway. I haven’t posted since last Tuesday, and this is a much bigger blogging break than I had ever planned on having. Unfortunately, it is going to continue for at least another week, perhaps two, before I can get back on track. I have a plethora of things happening in my life right now (actually, I just like the word plethora. Please excuse me while I say it 10 times fast.) Alrighty, and I’m back. Here’s the short list of what has to happen in the next two weeks:
- It is the end of the semester at college (finals are next week!) and I have an overwhelming amount of homework that I need to do between now and then.
- We are selling our house; we get a sign on our front lawn and a lock box on our front door tomorrow. This means a deep cleaning of the house from top to bottom. Anyone bored this week?
- We are having a giant garage sale where we are basically trying to sell most of what we own, which of course takes tons of time to put together.
- Last but definitely the most important is the fact that my husband and I are getting a divorce. Some things need to be done, and this is one of those things.
So you add all of this together, and you end up with a very stressed out and overworked Hava. I went to bed at 3:30 am this morning but was up by 7:00. The bizarre thing is, I haven’t crashed yet. I’m waiting to just stop in my tracks, give one giant yawn, and fall over dead asleep. Hasn’t happened. Yet. Of course, it is only 10:30 in the morning. We’ll see what happens by 2:00 this afternoon.
Throughout all of this, I am still working at the library as normal, and I am hoping to be able to substitute teach this Wednesday. So yeah…If you don’t hear back from me in emails, just give me some time. I am probably packing with one hand and doing homework with the other.
After the next two weeks, things will calm down considerably. I won’t have school anymore; I won’t substitute teach anymore; and my garage sale will be done. Once that happens, I’ll be back on here in full force. I have quite a few books that are waiting for me to write reviews on, so don’t worry – I’ll have plenty to say when I get back. 
If you want to make sure to hear about it when I do come back, please check out my subscription page and sign up for one of the options.
Don’t miss me too much!

Oh, hon. Do take care of yourself. I’m so sorry about some of the stuff you mentioned. Be well, dearie. We’re certainly not going anywhere.
Hava I am so sorry to hear about what you are facing in the near future. As busy as you will be in the next few weeks, do try to take a few minutes out to just breathe. Like Phyll said, you’re readers won’t be going anywhere.
I’m sorry, too, that you’re having to go through all of this. My sister is in the middle of a divorce and just moved over the weekend, so I can imagine how you’re feeling. I hope that everything goes as smoothly as possible and that you have some time to take care of yourself.
Hava,
I am so sorry to hear this. My heart aches for you. I have been there; sold the house, garage sale on top of a divorce. If you need me, I am hear for you.
Take care of yourself, remember you come first.
Hava, I’m so sorry. That’s a lot going on at once, but I’m sure when everything settles it will all be for the best. Remember you have many friends in the blogosphere. Take care!
Havs, I am so sorry to hear about what you are going through. It is horrible when all of these things happen at once. Though very sad, you are strong and I know you’ll get through all of this just fine. Please take care of yourself.
Thanks you guys. It meant a lot to read your comments. I am lucky because my husband is a good guy. Not the right guy for me, but still a good guy. Life is trucking on, and I am actually doing fairly well, although there are days…lol.
Anyway, thanks again for taking the time to comment on here, everyone. I really appreciated that.
Hava
