I'm Here!

Okay, so I might be back.  I was going to take the whole month of April, but you know how things go...they change.

Change is good people!

This may have been a confusing time for some of you, and I realize now that I could have taken some extra steps in explaining what was going to take place on this blog for the month of April, but I didn't and for that,  I apologize.

For those of you who are still confused, let me explain...this is a busy time for beekeepers.

  • I knew from last year that I would be very neglectful of my blog during this time.  
  • To try to keep you entertained, I handed over my blog to a friend.  
  • I told her to do what she wanted.  Her plan...to share a short story with you.  
  • A completely fictional short story!
  • Her life has put limits on her ability to blog daily.  
  • Life happens and things get in the way.  
  • For those of you that don't understand - blogging is a thing.  It takes time.  It takes effort.  
  • If you know a blogger and you enjoy reading a blog, please, give that person a pat on the back.  
  • Most of us do this for free!  
  • We do not get paid!  
  • If you can't literally pat your blogger on the back - leave them a comment.  
  • Do something to show your appreciation.

Well - as my friend soon found out, blogging daily is a real challenge.  It takes a lot of time and it can be consuming.  As with most of us, when push comes to shove - blogging takes a back seat to other responsibilities.  So, while my friend has decided to remain anonymous, I have convinced her to finish her story.

I want to see how this story turns out!

It has been a nice distraction for me, and I have really enjoyed it.  With a little begging and pleading, I think I have convinced her to give us the new chapters as she has them.

Stop now and take a look at the top of this web page.  You will see tabs that say:

Home
Snapshots
Egg Q & A
Products
Contact
Short Story

Clicking on the tab for short story, you will see that I have copied the first chapters to this page.  As new chapters are added, I will give you a heads up here.  If you like what you've read and you're interested in seeing how the story plays out, please check in on her from time to time.

I know I will!

As for the regular content, you will be happy to know, I have been doing my best to take pictures and video when it's been safe for me to take a glove off now and then.  It's still a little crazy around here, but I am starting to see the light a little.

Hope you've all been good.

I Really missed you guys.
