Has It Really Been 6 Months?

 


This was the scene in my Bodacious Workshop a week ago. I was working on 2 of the 3 birdhouses that Lisa would be bringing to New Hampshire today. A day trip. To visit Mom and Dad V. I had the music on. I was sipping a little wine. Throughout the afternoon, one particular thought resonated in my brain...

When Lisa takes her day trip to New Hampshire, it will officially be 6 months since I published a blog post. 

Yikes!

I gave that a considerable amount of thought. 

At the end of the day, the million-dollar question was, do I throw up my hands and call it quits on this blog?

That would have been the easy way out. 

However.

This blog was born back in July of 2015. 

That was almost 8 years ago. 

How could I possibly delete this blog from the Universe after all this time just because I disappeared from the blogosphere for 6 months? 

I couldn't.

And, I wasn't going to.

Then, how would I explain my absence?

Do I really need an explanation?

In all fairness, yes. 

I owe that to my readers for a world of reasons. 

I have always promised to write in my voice and include the good, the bad, and everything in between. And, I will continue to do that. Because life is life. We are not white picket fence people. We embrace Wabi Sabi. 

But. 

For now, because it has been 6 months, I will fill you in little by little so this blog column doesn't end up being the length of a novel. 

It feels good to be back. 

Lots of changes and twists and turns.

And, of course, the Universal shifts and shimmy shakes.

To be continued...
