All Posts, Everyday Life, Misc.

Hey there.

Remember me?

Remember how not too long ago I was a regular blogger?  A blogger who’d get on every day and post my two cents about whatever was going on at the time.  Sometimes it was about our dog, Oscar, sometimes it was about house hunting, and sometimes, if I was feeling particularly nostalgic, I’d even write about my life, pre-CPA.

And you know what?  I really liked it, this regular posting thing.  Some would even say that I loved it.  But, as often happens in the real world, life gets in the way and takes a few unexpected turns.  I’ve been going through one of those turns lately and unfortunately, it’s taken a lot more out of me then I thought it would.  I’ve had to put my creative juices on hold since all of my energy has been directed at just making it through each day.

But I am making it through and I’m still here, for those of you who are sweet enough to come by and check on me.  I also fully plan on returning.  Very soon, as a matter of fact.  Because I need to talk about this stuff that’s been going on.  I’ve debated when to share it and I’ve kept it to myself for some time now, but you know what?   I need to get it out there.

Now I just have to figure out exactly how to say it.  But in the meantime, thank you for your patience and your sweet emails, even if I haven’t responded directly to them, they mean the world to me!

    You have been missed!! You made mention of getting your blood drawn a few times and it made me wonder if you were doing fertility treatments. If so I hope that it’s not been too rough, I have been down that road. If that’s not it, I hope everything is ok and when your ready I would love to hear what’s going on in your life. Hope you have a blessed day. -kriss

    I hope things look up for you… take your time and feel comfortable about putting what you want here. If you don’t, I’m sure we all understand. Take care!

  7. Heidi Says:

    No worries, Tab. We all need to regroup every now and then. Blogging every day is an undertaking. I’ve always wondered how you did it. You’re prolific!

    I hope things aren’t too hairy in your Arlington neck of the D.C. Whenever you’re ready to share, I’m ready to read.

    By the way: you look adorable in that picture.

  8. Janet Says:

    I was a little worried. I thought life had shanghaied you for a while. Hope everything is ok.

    Gracious…You’re blogging about missing a few days of regular posting and I haven’t blogged in over a month! Life does get in the way sometimes…gratefully though, we get moments of downtime to be creative or get other things done. I feel moments like that coming on in my life! I can’t wait.

    I’ve missed you! Take it one day at a time and do what you need to do in order to function as well as you can. You’ll get through this! ;)

  15. Terra Says:

    You’ve definitely been missed. Hoping things are going okay for you, will send prayers your way. :)

    Hey–
    Like those above, I’ve missed you too. I must admit it feels a bit strange to tell someone that, and we’ve never met. But reading your blog… I feel like i know you. Anyway, I hope that what you’re going through is surmountable. If you need to talk, please let me know. Email is a good way to vent, rejoice, or just see your thoughts expressed in writing. I find it’s a good way to work through things…

    I hope you’re doing well! I am now posting once to twice a week. I have been in a bloggy funk for 3 months!

    You’ve been missed. I so enjoy reading your blog. I love the photos and, well, everthing. Hang in there. I know it’s hard sometimes to reach out & ask for help or just a listening ear. I’ve been in tumoil these past few days (I don’t think it’s PMS but maybe). Anywho, I’ve been trying to work things out on my own, in my head & it’s tough. I finally reached out to my VT & invited her to my house. Perhaps we’ll find some solace from reconnecting. Also, check out this week’s GD lesson (#28). I’m inactive & saw the reading suggestions in my weekly RS email and felt like I was getting a direct message. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Reach out to your support group, your friends & family & your online family. We’ll listen & sometimes that’s all you need.

    Take care of yourself & hang in there. We’ll be waiting with open arms & ready monitors. :)

    Ciao!

  28. Ambulance Mommy Says:

    Hey Tabitha! Ironic post, because I haven’t been by in a while, and thought, I should go see how she’s doing. So its not just you :)

    Sincerely hope everything is ok. Looking forward to an update.

  29. Tabitha Blue Says:

    Bless you… we all understand! I think summer is the hardest time to blog… or at least I’ve been feeling the same as you. It’s been a stretch to get out a regular post, and I haven’t been so on top of it either. Glad you’re at least making it through the day, and don’t worry about us… although we’ll be happy to hear what’s going on when you’re back!

    :)

  31. Sue Says:

    I’ve been wondering about you as well…hope that everything is ok, and when you’re ready to write about it, we’re ready to read! But if you’re not, that’s ok too. You certainly don’t owe us internet strangers any explanation. ;) Take care of you!

  32. Robynn's Ravings Says:

    Looking forward to catching up and we’ll be here when you are. :)

  33. Andrea Says:

    Sending hugs and positive thoughts! Looking forward to you being back but definitely put your real life first! Take all the time you need, we’ll be here when you’re ready :)
    Hugs!
