GONE TOO LONG

Hello! I am sheepishly back to blogging, for the time being anyway. Kinda like missing church for no good reason, one is reluctant to return for fear of having been spotted having fun. Well, I did enjoy a miniature vacation to the Smokies, but other than that, it has just been a hectic time for me. I tore into spring cleaning those few nice days in March, literally pulling out many things that had been stored away, or were cluttering my closets. I soon ran out of steam, not being as young as I once was, unfortunately. I attribute my lack of enthusiasm, which caused the postponing of cleaning, to the fact that the weather turned ugly and cold, and I just can't clean when it is dark and gloomy. That said, I left everything topsy turvy, waiting for sunny days. (Then, I will want to be outside, gardening!) Another reason for my dampened spirits involved a family drama, actually a tragedy, which I may or may not write about later. Thank God that the family member involved was protected by angels, I believe, that prevented an even worse result. I was terribly shaken by this event and definitely needed a brief vacation to gather my wits again. Happily, I'm back and recovering.
