I know that this has been a dark little corner of the internet the last couple of months. The end of last year brought a number of heartbreaking events to people close to me. I didn’t (and don’t) really feel that any of these stories were mine to share about on this blog. It also didn’t really feel right to write a bunch of frilly posts about knitting or other mundane life bits when poeple I am close to were hurting and I was hurting for them, so I left this blog quiet.
I am happy to leave 2007 behind and start again fresh. I just got back from a week in Kauai with Evan and his whole family. I snorkeled for the first time and I was surprised to discover how much I liked it. I hope that this new year brings more incredible firsts for me and for any of you still stopping by to read this blog.
Also, I am still looking for one more person for the Pay It Forward thing. I already have Jenny and fillyjonk, but I need one more.
I hope 2008 treats you and your loved ones more kindly than the end of 2007… and I hope I see you soon!
Happy 2008!
Will you e-mail me your addy? I’m not ready to send anything yet, but I’m getting close….
I felt the same way about 2007, although I don’t think my year was as tough as yours. I am glad to start a new year off too, and I hope this year brings you much happier things to celebrate.
The photo of Kauai is great – how awesome to have gotten to go there! We are going to Maui for a week in April and I cannot wait!!
Nice to see you back posting again.
YAY I’m so glad you’re back! I was prepared to come in and give you a good verbal shaking to nudge you to blog again!!
Post! This is November! We want to see your projects!
