I am feeling very vulnerable right now.
In recent days, I have been sent various emails and have received several phone calls regarding my lack of activity in blogdom. Some correspondence has been kind, understanding, and affirming.
Others...have thrown vicious, slanderous words around, saying that I am a "liar," that I "hate blogs," and that I am "losing face in the blog world." I am so hurt. So. Hurt.
Eh, not really hurt at all. It has actually been nice to be absent from the blog and from my computer for awhile. It has been a busy few weeks...hanging out with living and dying people at the hospital, traveling to California to be with Molly, sleeping, doing my own version of Extreme Home Makeover with my sister at our parent's house, etc...
I will not promise a post. I will say that one is coming, though. One, or two.
You know what would be nice? If you stopped posting about how you are going to blog soon and just blog. :)

that's a bunch of bunk. you take however long a hiatus that you need. seriously, people can be so odd sometimes. you don't owe anybody anything in the the blog world.

I have noticed your blogging absence but have remained silent. But secretly I have been hoping you'd post because I miss reading you!
