Is This Thing On?

Holy cow, it’s working!

After weeks of techno-troubles, it’s looking like Promises Promises is back up and running! (Knock on wood, now that I’ve said that out loud.)

Thanks so much to all of you for your patience, concern and kind emails. I really can’t tell you how much it was appreciated.

This has not been a fun transition. As many of you probably saw, we crashed completely for a few days there. But I’ve moved to a new host and my web genius, JJ is ironing out the last of the bugs and adding back some of the old features to the new design so (fingers crossed), we’re back to normal…or abnormal, as it tends to be around here.

I’m going to get back to fussing with this for a bit, but there is a week’s worth of  New Year’s comics uploaded for your reading pleasure and already one banked for Friday!

Woo Hoo!

After a week of trouble, my comics are finally uploading again. (Must be one of those Christmas miracles I’ve been hearing so much about.) Apologies for the delay, but on the upside, y’all have a week’s worth of comics to go back and read. To help make it up, I’ll also extend the sale prices in the store until January 1st!

Thanks so much to all of you for another terrific year! Hope you’re having a safe and wonderful holiday!

Sorry about this but thanks to Ol’ Man Winter, I’m officially not going to make it to TIAM today. But Adriana and Katie will still be there so if you can get down to the Gladstone today, I’m sure it’ll be worth your while.

That’s it for my 2013 appearances. Thanks for a great year, everybody and I’ll see y’all in 2014.

Just a friendly reminder, Monday the 16th is the last day Canada Post has earmarked for delivery in time for Christmas so please get your holiday orders in and don’t forget to leave me a note if there’s anything special you want written or drawn into your Artist Editions.

Thanks!

Insanity – Weeks 3,3,3,4 & 4

Haven’t done an update on my Insanity challenge in a while, mostly because I blew it (sort of).

Ok here’s what happened:

I got myself in a bit of pout about my second fit test results and wasn’t happy with my week three effort so I decided it was worth doing over. Then I got sick and figured I should do week three over again. I still wasn’t happy with my results, a cold will always slow me down* but I moved on to week four anyway and then I hurt myself**. So I tried to do week four over but I can’t do the jumping around. I can modify most of the workouts to the lower impact versions, but that is seriously boring. I’m going to keep doing the DVDs as best I can, but until this leg loosens back up, I need to go to spin and TRX classes or something with less impact on my boo-boo.

I’m calling a do-over on the challenge. I’m going to make it my New Year’s resolution. That’ll give me plenty of time to recover and hit the ground running on 2014.

On a side note. The insanity workouts are very aptly named. I got all pumped up after one of my circuit DVDs and signed up for Warrior Dash in July.

Yeah… It seemed like a good idea at the time.

 

* I’m a bit of a suck that way.
**Nothing serious, I did something stupid and aggravated an old injury.

While you’re in the Promises Shop, don’t forget your Holiday Cards! and if you’re looking for something extra special, I am still open for commissions and there are stacks of original comics and prints ready to go!

Please remember that delivery takes some time so the sooner you get your orders in the better. I can’t guarantee delivery in time for Christmas on purchases made after December the 16th. In that event I will email you a printable card with your receipt so if your gift doesn’t arrive in time, there’ll still be something under the tree.

Thanks so much to everyone for your continued support of Promises Promises!
