I know, I know… It’s been almost a month since I’ve posted anything. The truth of the matter is that I haven’t felt much like writing. I’m not exactly ready to “air my dirty laundry”, but my husband and I are going to be parting ways… That being said, I’m apologizing to all (3) of you who have kept reading and hoping that one day I would put the pen to the paper (or fingers to the keyboard) and fill you in on the last month of my life. It’s been a rough one, but I know we will (all 4 of us) survive. No details right now though, please.
I must say that I have the best friends in the world. Throughout all of this, my real-life friends and confidants and also my internet “friends” have been wonderful and truly loyal. I have had people come out of the woodworks offering up places to stay, happy hour trips, girlfriend dinner dates, you name it… and I truly appreciate it – from the bottom of my heart. These are times when you need friends… lots of them!
Shannie has been great through all of this and I must (shamefully) say that I haven’t kept up with her blog like a true friend would. Sure we see each other several times a week and hang out all the time, but I have almost felt like since mine was “on hold”, I didn’t want to read anyone else’s “memoirs” either. Well, lo and behold, she up and gives me a blogging award today. Hot damn, Shannie, that makes my day! Even though I haven’t posted in about a month, I’m still award-worthy? That is probably the kick-in-the-butt I need to get back started writing. I can’t exactly award 7 other blogs at the moment (since I’ve been on such a hiatus), but I accept this award with pleasure. Thanks Shannie!
So to all my loyal “athletic” supporters, I thank you from the bottom of… well… my bottom! My 12 step program is this (well, there are only 3 steps but you get the picture): I promise to try and start writing again. All too soon, I will have new diggs with a new address, but the same old Laura will still be in here. I promise to pick up my camera and take some (long overdue) pictures of the girls for your viewing pleasure. And I promise (no matter how hard it is) not to ever go a whole damned month without writing… ever again! Shannie can hold me to it and talk bad about me to the whole blogosphere if I balk on that one.
Hip-Hip-HOORAY! Hip-Hip-HOORAY!!!! Sooo glad you are back. I was hoping by bestowing The Award upon you, you would use it as something to make your comback with! YAY!
I love you bunches, my friend.
Wow. I am glad you are back and looking forward to reading what you are writing. All that is important is that you are well and happy! Looking forward to seeing more photos. I too have been guilty of not writing and I will start doing so as well. I promise.
Sorry to hear things have been so rough for you. I wish you the best and look forward to reading your wonderful blog!
YAY! I am happy you are back! I have been thinking about you lots. I know it’s hard what you are going through. You will survive…and you know in your heart what is best for you and your beautiful girls. Hugs to you…and Abby and Maggie.
