It's ski season here. My husband falls ill with cold symptoms after spending a few days on the slopes. Then, by the time the weekend rolls around with promises of great ski conditions, he feels better than he's felt in ages. Natalie Acres I can relate. It’s ski season here.

It is ever-so-slightly close to the truth. I'm glad to learn it's universal. And very glad to cheer you up. :-) Sorry I haven't replied before, we're in a hotel room in Boston. Husband is still ill, but he's being more stoic about it. And I've finished my book and it's with my editor, so all angst is on hold until 2010. Susanna, I hope your dh gets better soon and that the book is done soon too. Thanks guys. It is ever-so-slightly close to the truth. I’m glad to learn it’s universal.

I'm in exactly this place, with both The Book AND The Man (nearing the end of revisions on the latest book which I feel certain will kill my career, whilst my husband battles bronchitis...) and you've brilliantly nailed both monologues! Hope you and the Fecklet have a very merry Christmas :-) Julie, thanks for cheering up my morning!
