Dear Family, Friends, and Readers,
You may have noticed that I have been AWOL for some time. You might have seen that I have not posted for a while.
It is not because I am bored or lost my column or having a bout of depression. But I have been busy. Busy with kids, busy with extra work hours, busy with the novel. I took on some extra roles that require more time than I originally thought. I have a novel that is near completion. I have piles of sewing and craft projects as well as some cleaning projects that require my attention.

So something needs to give and that something is this blog. Oh, I will start posting my column on a regular basis once more. But sadly, I am not visiting your blogs or replying to your comments as I should. My focus will be on finishing that novel, taking care of the craft and sewing pile, cleaning up some of the piles that have built up around my house.
My plan is to return on the new year and get back to regular posts and visiting of all of you who have supported this blog for so long. There have been many new visitors and, believe me, I plan to visit you as well.
Please wave if you see me speed by. Soon, very soon, I will have time to visit once more.

Wishing you much success in finishing the novel, catching up on projects, keeping up with kids, and everything. We’ll be here when you catch your breath. :-)
Take care, friend. You are doing what you need to do.
Good luck with your other goals, Rumbly. Don’t forget to take care of yourself at the same time. Looking forward to hearing about your novel, as well as your future blog posts.
I always admire those who can multi-task better than me:)
I understand that completely. Somedays you have to look at your limits and draw a few lines in the sand.
I’ve been absent too, for the same reason. I’ve gone back to work full-time and the blog has been a casualty. Hopefully I’ll figure out how to get it going again soon. I’m still reading and look forward to yours when the time comes for a new post.
Working full time does take its toll. I will never understand how to moneytize a blog when it takes so much work to do that.
The day has only 24 hours. It never seems enough. I understand!
Serious writers must jealously guard their time. And then there are the people in your life – and they certainly take priority over a blog. (and keeping up with movies with them is part of that!) Enjoy your time. We’ll wave periodically as there is time
