Some of us receive ood or bad news and wish to share it with our on-line friends. Some of us receive the same ood or bad news and wish to take a few days to rejoice or possibly cry before sharin it on our blo.
I am in the second roup.
Therefore, I am oin to be takin an undecided number of days from my blo to simply sort throuh, contemplate and consider what do to with my unexpected news. I do not mean to be mysterious about this. I am simply not ready to o public with it yet.
An Extended Meet N' reet will be posted at midniht.
A few of my scheduled posts miht also appear. Heck, I miht be back even sooner than I anticipate. I will be checkin e-mail and comments. Yes, I will be lurkin on my own blo.
Please pretend to miss me while I am one. Okay?
best wishes from all of us out here, you know that........ we worry about people we don't know or have never met like they are family though.....even it we do just type talk to one another now and then.
Self time is good to get it dorted out - no distractions then to influence any of it. God Speed Michelle.....

Posted by: Marie | September 27, 2005 at 07:51 PM
I find that a foot rub while contemplating anything makes the decision/reaction easier to deal with. Hugs to you. And what are you thinking? OF COURSE you will be missed. You are the attractive mortar in the house that Blog built.

I'm not missing you too much because I know you're lurking nearby! Blogbreaks are allowed, you know; you take fewer than any other blogger I've come across. I hope you enjoy the change. Take care.
Posted by: Zinnia Cyclamen | September 28, 2005 at 09:32 AM
Of course you will be genuinely missed, no need to worry about that. I hope that everything is ok, and wish you the best. Take care.
