Folks… a change here in Shi*land… both the blog and on Facebook.  I’ve got a friend coming on to help me out with a few small things.

Folks…meet Nicole.  Nicole, meet folks.

Nicole is kindly stepping in to help me with a few things.  Yes, yes, I keep telling people I’m not ready to hire an assistant because I can’t.  Nicole is working for peanuts & books.  Well.  Books and to help me out.  I actually insisted she take the books.

And before anybody who has previously offered gets upset, gets offended or hurt (pretty please don’t-I can honestly say, it’s not you, it’s me) or says anything…well, this really needs to be more something I request, not something somebody requests of me, and for a whole slew of reasons that I can’t really go into detail about.

Nicole is pretty much what I needed, and she just happened to be willing at the exact time I was finally willing to open my brain and acknowledge I needed to do this.  It’s not just that she was willing to work cheap… *G* it was a little more complicated than that.

So if by chance you see Nicole answering questions…yes, she does have my permission, yes, she’s cool to be here…and I’m so glad she is…
