Back From Christmas Town

We got back from our Christmas holiday last night and it was one of my bestest Christmases ever. It was great to be with family and just relax. I managed to read three books and watch two movies, play video games and start scripting a new story. And I didn't feel stressed or tired the whole time. I need to take more breaks, they're so productive for me! Above Henry is trying to catch a remote control helicopter, which is an example of the kind of activities we took part in. I also got to try astronaut ice-cream for the first time, which tastes exactly like ice-cream except it's room temperature and it's crumbly and dry. Very weird. We also discussed future plans and it seems we're moving in the Spring. Another incentive to get the first Maddy book finished. Right now I'm back to work, inking page 38 of Maddy Kettle while Julie and Henry get caught up on sleep. After I get to page 40 I need to pencil another 20 pages and start the process over again. I didn't make it to page 40 by Christmas so let's see if I can make it there before new years day.
