The Plan

This past year has been a pretty bumpy road around here and I think it's finally starting to take it's toll on me - both physically and mentally.  So, my plan right now is to back off for a while and reassess the entire situation - blogging is one of the things included in the situation -  among other things as well.

Seems that the further I go the behind-er I get with everything!  I'm going to take a little time off and see what happens.  Who knows.......I may come back like a freight train - or it may be like a slow moving boat to wherever (like it's been for the last couple of months).  Only time will tell I suppose.

Please don't give up on me just yet though and thanks for stopping by.................

  10. Oh Lynn, I have been meaning to email you as I could feel what you have been going through... telepathy there.

    Which ever way life goes, just be kind to yourself and I am going to miss you loads. My followers have reduced commenting and now with you going, it ain't going to be good for me, but I will survive. Lol. I did not know that blogging was such an uplifting activity for me.

    I will never give up on you and know you will come back to blogging.

    Much love,

    Monica

  20. Hello my sweet friend. I am so sorry to hear that you are overwhelmed. I went through the same thing in about March. Taking 2 months off changed me completely. I dealt with the problems in my life and came back even stronger than before.

    One of the things that I have not done, is join a design team since I have been back. I feel that working on the projects that I want to do and in the time frame I have to do it, works better for me. Not to say that I will never join a design team again, but for now, I am enjoying creating without time limits. Wish you all the love in the world. Chriss

We will be here when you come back and I'm never more than an email away if you want to keep in touch personally. I am keeping you in my prayers. If you miss us too much (I'll miss you!), come on back any time! Lots of love and hugs, Darnell

  35. It's tough to try to juggle everything sometimes and the sad part is that when we try to de-stress, we usually end up setting aside some of the enjoyable activities because we have to prioritize. I get it totally and of course you must take the time off and re-group.

    You and Jim have been through a lot this past year so now is probably a good time to take a break and just 'breathe'.

    I'll send you an email later...
