What's there to say? I'm not even sure what's going on around here.With a bit of effort I give you my list of excuses...
* scritchies that turned into full blown colds
* family, family and more family for the holidays
* computer glitches
* camera glitches
* weekend travel
* search for a lost school routine
* post holiday lazies
I found myself getting comfortable, and then overwhelmed by the idea that it had been so long. I was afraid to even pull the blog up because of guilt. I didn't check to see what my friends had to say because of guilt. I found myself avoiding the computer altogether because of, well, you get the picture.
Days came and went. Full days, quiet days...
Blessings, Debbie
Looking forward to reading more of your posts Debbie, welcome back.
ReplyDeleteIt does look like you had a busy time. We are a forgiving lot - welcome back!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Blogging is guilt-free :)
I was just thinking about you and now here you are!

ReplyDeleteCourtney
I missed you! But, when you go over to look at my blog, you will see that I have been fairly quiet, too. Funny that just last night I took the leap after quite awhile, too.
ReplyDeleteI need the curtains/valance in that first picture....love! OK, second picture, but I love the gray fur baby, too.
Sometimes I think life just gets so blessedly normal that we settle into that peace for a bit.
Glad you are back.
Your pictures say it all! (very nice!) Anyone who didn't blog for a while....well, I would've just assumed they were busy from Christmas! love,andrea
ReplyDeleteYour break looks wonderful. Thanks for sharing it. I particularly like the little gnome house.
ReplyDeleteAfter the holidays and such I think a lot of us are reflecting on the good times and family and such..but also cleaning up our homes and quite honestly to tired to blog...Forgiven:)

You must have read my thoughts from the other day - I wondered what you were up to - busy woman that you are. Looks like it was all good fun xx
ReplyDeleteGlad to have you back...looks like you were living life...no guilt in that
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking about you for the past week and was just about to drop you a line! Sometimes, we just need a break from the blog world and it looks like you've been having a TON of fun (love the picture with the Hershey's bottle that looks like it's about to strike... Hehe!).
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you're back though! I've missed you. :)
I have missed you and I am glad your back:)Looking forward to your next post...

ReplyDeleteBlessings!
Deborah
Welcome back, I was afraid you had left us. Glad to see a new post with such honesty. We all have those issues from time to time. xo
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have been enjoying your time off. I was away a lot, too....so don't feel guilty...you aren't the only one! :-)
ReplyDeleteNice to hear from you. :) ~Lisa
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so nice. I can see why you were away. You were doing real life.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had fun in the interim!
ReplyDeleteGlad to have you back. :)
And here I thought you MUST be mortally ill.....I was even checking your daughters' blogs to see if they anything to say on the matter!
ReplyDeleteGood grief, woman! welcome back, anyway. :)
Beautiful kitty.
p.s. but yes, blogging can sometimes get in the way of everything else. (which is the balance I'm always looking for - in everything!)
I missed you! I'm glad you're back! (BIG HUG!)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're back, Debbie. I do understand how it gets when a few days pass... yes, I do. Glad you had a good holiday!! blessings ~ Tanna
ReplyDeleteMe tooooo. I just couldn't get myself to do anything. I think the business of the holidays zap all our energy.
ReplyDeleteHello Debbie and welcome back! It certainly does seem like life was full of joy and definitely worth your page being quiet. So glad you are back, however. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to know that everything is OK and that you had a great time with family and friends during the Holidays. WE ALL NEED A BREAK FROM BLOGGING ONCE IN A WHILE.
ReplyDeleteI for one have experienced the guilt feeling but I know that those who care about me would be there when I returned and they were.
Happy New Year. JB.
I've understand completely how easy it is to get busy with life and not post. I don't think it's all bad. sometimes you come back feeling more inspired and fresh.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I love the photo with your girls spinning. The apple didn't fall far from the tree!
Welcome back friend! I missed you!
ReplyDeleteRemember - Blog without guilt! You owe us nothing - we do love you though!
Deanna
I'm laughing because I know just how you feel!
ReplyDeleteOnly you wrote it down.
Sometimes it's just what a girl has to do!
But I'm glad you made friends with your comuper again.
{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}
ReplyDeleteSooooo glad to have you back! (Although I heartily agree with Deanna..."Blog without guilt!")
{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}
I'm struggling to get back into it too. So many other projects are tempting me away, and it feels like I've nothing worth writing. I'm sure I'll get my rhythm back! You too!
ReplyDeleteticket to ride is our family's favorite game!
ReplyDeleteYou should come snag my blogging and commenting without obligation button. I know how easy it is once getting away to ever come back. So thank you! Your voice is missed.
ReplyDeleteWe love that game and my son just received the Europe version as a gift - harder version and fun. Looks like you had a nice time off. The instrument is very interesting. Looks like a dulcimer but played like a guitar. What is it? Who made it?
ReplyDeleteP.S. - having major troubles leaving a comment with my typepad account. Maybe typepad and blogger are having an argument? signing in with google.
