Maybe you haven't noticed but I haven't been around.
Mind you, it looks like many of you-all haven't been round much either.
There's been so much going on in Real Life.
Tragedy and Disaster on a National scale. Followed by Heartbreak and Drama at a personal level.
It's all just Too Much.
Somehow I just haven't had the heart to talk about it.
Thursday brought a family crisis, and tears. Friday brought friends to help and support.
Saturday... still shell-shocked we took our bikes to Mission Bay and rode along the waterfront; got some gluten-free fish and chips; tried to smile and laugh.
And it worked, mostly. Something about the sun and the sea. The breeze blowing in your bike helmet and the calls of the wild...
"Mummmmeeee! My legs are sore! I'm tiiiired!"
I missed a milestone 50th birthday party that night, unable to face the crowds and spent time with a few special friends instead.
Sometimes you just have to do that.
Regroup.
Be kind to yourselves (and each other).
Lay low and use what energy you have where you need it most.
So this is just me emerging briefly from my hidey hole to wave and say hello to any friends out there in the Land of Blog who may have noted my absence. I mean when a blogaholic fails to blog you know something's up, right?
And there is, but I can't say.
All I can do is ask that while you fling your prayers heavenward, could you say a word for Team G as well?
We need a whole lots of Divine Love right now, specially for our Boy.
Thanks.
xx
