I've been going at a pretty hectic pace here, what with the A to Z challenge and my 100 Random Followers Contest. On top of that my emotions have been a roller coaster since my mother's death. Not only is Mother's Day coming up, but her birthday as well, it will feel strange. Now I'm getting ready to go to the islands. I'll be leaving in a little over 2 weeks and be gone until August. So much will be happening while I'm there this time around. Memorial services, a family wedding, my 40th class reunion.
I need/have to take a break from blogging. I have things scheduled for every Monday and Friday while I'm in the islands, but for the rest of this month...I will probably not be out and about much, if at all.
I want to thank all of my old and new Random Readers. I hope you will revisit me and post a comment when a blog pops up. I may be able from time to time to visit with you while I'm in the islands, but I really can't guarantee anything. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.
In the mean time, just for all of you...Beautiful People...by Melanie
I hope everything goes well for you Bish. Will forward to your future posts when they appear :o)
ReplyDeleteXX take care
I hope you enjoy your trip as best you can.
ReplyDeleteOnce you leave, I will be looking forward to seeing your next post crop up in Google reader. Cheers.
You have been busy! The islands will be good for you, I think. A chance to contemplate a lot of things. I will miss you until you return. Peace.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're able to enjoy your time away some. I'll be keeping my subscription to the blog, and look forward to hearing from you when you're up to blogging again!

ReplyDeleteI meant to enter your contest, Bish, but never got around to it due to a CRAZY work schedule.
ReplyDeleteYou're smart to take a break. I'm going to do that pretty soon myself. I'll see you again when we're both back, recharged and ready to go. Have fun in the islands!
I *completely* understand. Enjoy your break!
ReplyDeleteWe'll miss you! Hope you have a great trip and break.
ReplyDeleteTake care! I'm sure it's going to be tough with Mother's Day and your mom's birthday, so hang in there!
ReplyDeleteBish, I'll miss your blogging while you're gone, and I'll keep an eye out for when you return. Rest well. Enjoy your trip. Peace to you.
ReplyDeleteI hope your break allows you time to heal and rejuvenate, Bish.
ReplyDeleteBish;
ReplyDeleteYour blog is so great it is perfect for re-reading.
I'll scroll through your island stories and think of you there sharing your days in the place and with people you love!
Have a wonderful time!
I totally understand a need to take a break! I take them all the time when I'm hitting my writing hard. There definitely needs to be a balance between the two, doesn't there?
ReplyDeleteWishing you peace and healing in the days to come. I've been down a team member due to maternity leave and so this past month has been a blur of too many demands and not enough sleep. Roland
ReplyDeleteI was wondering where you were. I hadn't seen your blog come up in my dashboard for a while.
ReplyDeleteWe'll miss you but of course we understand.
Have a great blogcation. I just came back from a mini one that was completely unintended.
ReplyDeleteSometimes life gets in the way of the Internet.
See you next time you post.
We all need to rest. I have missed you Bish. I know your island time will be sooo sweet. Sweet indeed. We'll catch up when you get back.
ReplyDelete*Giant hugs* And I love Melanie. Thanks for reminding me. ^_^
Take care! I'm sure it's going to be tough with Mother's Day and your mom's birthday, so hang in there!
