Where did the time go?

Well, actually, we had a baby.

After spending so much time redesigning this website and beginning the long and arduous task of sorting through over 1,000 posts, it’s suddenly been around two months since I last added anything new here!

Where did those two months go?

This is not a rhetorical question, by the way: I genuinely don’t know where they went.

Well, actually, I do.

While I don’t make a habit of discussing my personal life on this blog, I’m really thrilled to say that my partner recently gave birth to our third child. We’d been expecting him to arrive from the beginning of June onwards, so by the time he arrived in late June, we were well and truly ready for him.

Perhaps this explains why I was not able to find the motivation necessary to update this blog. Right now, our two older kids are crawling around under my desk, making mischief.

I get the feeling that I’m going to have to be more determined and disciplined if I ever hope to get around to working on all of the projects I set myself to finish by the end of 2019.

As they say in the classics, ‘More updates shortly (or whenever I get time)’.
