Mic Check, 1 - 2 - 3

It has been quite some time since I’ve visited here, and I miss it. I just saw that my last post was on April 20th. Holy Shizzle.

It’s funny how I get busy, and busy, and busy, I run out of time to indulge myself with blogging, and then when I do find slivers of time here and there, I find it better for myself not to do anything at all.

Work and family life has kept my daily hours filled, so much so that we’ve had to cancel two pre-planned vacations this year. We were planning our usual retreat to Newport, Rhode Island, but it’ll have to wait for next year. Maybe. We also had to cancel our September trip to Annapolis for Ed’s 20th reunion at the Naval Academy. I was really looking forward to that. ((((sigh))))

Throughout it all, I have to remember to remind myself that we’re blessed to have work, income, and stability. It’s something not afforded to more and more Americans these days.

I was reminded this week how much blogging means to me, and how much I love my peeps in Blogistan. Many of you have become dear, dear friends, even if I’ve never personally laid eyes on you. I’m setting aside some time to begin blogging again over Labor Day weekend, and look forward to reading up with Blogistan to catch up with my peeps. I miss you all.

In the meantime, I just wanted to pop into my little corner of the Internet and say hi.

“Hi!”

Hi!

Hello!! Good to see a post from you!! I know all too well how life can get away from you, especially in the summer! Hope you and the pups are doing well!! We're good, with continued addition and subtractions of our senior goldens, making life crazy! :-)))

Oh my hell!! I had actually planned to email you tonight because I was thinking about you over the weekend for some reason, and I wanted to check in with you and make sure you guys were ok. How weird that you would post tonight. SpoOooOoky!

Sorry to hear you had to cancel those two trips. That bites! I hope the family stuff isn't anything serious.

I look forward to catching up when you have time to post.

You are so missed. You will never know how much.
I hope you are all doing well. Remember working too much causes wrinkles. (ok, I use that 'causes wrinkles' term for a lot of things!)
Hugs to you all,
Suz

OHMYGOODNESS!!! I can't believe you're back... I really, truly thought you'd "retired" your blog (and I was sad, really sad....)

I am HAPPY you are well, and just very busy (I can relate!)

Diva and Ruby say "hola" to you and your household menagerie - please keep in touch!

Missing you, girlie! xoxo

I hope things are well with you. I'm going to keep hoping it's work keeping you busy and away from the Blogosphere, and NOT family drama (or ANY drama for that matter!) Hugs to you, your BelovED, and your fur babies!

Just stopped by to wish you and your crew a Happy Thanksgiving. I hope things are well, and just busy. (as opposed to stress-filled)

Tracey Axnick said...

Just checking in my blogger friend. Hope you're doing well.
Diva and Ruby asked how your pups are... I told them I would check and see. :)

Drop by and leave a note something.

Hope you and Ed have a FAB T'giving!

It made me smile to see you 'resurface' today! Thanks for sending prayers and good thoughts to my buddy. I hope you and BelovED are well! Check in with us soon. We miss you!
