A shy voice in the ether.
“hello?…”
Friends? Family? Curious acquaintances?
I’ve left you for oh, so long. My last post was a month and a half ago. And you know the weirdest part (for me)? I haven’t even spent much time thinking about this electronic journal into which I have poured so much of myself these past five years. Truth be told, I haven’t spent much time thinking at all. Instead, I’ve been enjoying the summer and – drumroll please – I’ve been working out. Apparently my brain and body and soul have room for one or two obsessions (this blog being one of them) but not three or four. So I’ve put all my energy into getting up at 5am to go to my boot camp work out and then dragging my sorry body through the rest of the day…writing down everything I eat…before I collapse at 8:52pm. I’ve had fun with some photo sessions these last weeks, and our family has spent lots of time outdoors (much of which was spent donating blood to the local mosquito mafia that have taken over Madison this summer). But I haven’t even been composing blog posts in my mind much less typing them out.
I just logged on to my blog and had to update the software, and I almost forgot my password. Crazy crazy.
I’ve got lots of things to share from our July and August, and we have exciting things on the horizon (Andrew’s first day of school is on Sept. 1!), but to start out, I thought I’d write to say hi and come on back. Thanks for the emails and calls I’ve gotten from friends either concerned for my non-posting welfare or friends who’ve let me know that their days are better with a little dose of this blog.
Love ya all!
Peace,
Althea
