Well, I never...

Thought it would take me this long to write another blog post. Can we say, pathetic? Over the past (gasp) almost three years, my life has been so shop absorbed that so many bits of me have fallen to the wayside. Journaling has nearly gone out the window, blogging has taken a back bus seat, and keeping in contact with friends and family has become a slipshod wishy-washy affair.

A few weeks ago, during my new year cleansing/purging/revisitation, I went through my little Muji bits and pieces journal and found a list of blog theme ideas that I wrote out last August, then proceeded never to use. Some of them were actually pretty good and inspiring. But here it is, end of February, and I have not even written a blah post in months, let alone anything of interest. I have, however, taken to putting more things on paper. There have been birthday cards, thank you notes, and even a few just because I need to reconnect with the people I love letters over the past couple of months. There have also been a considerable number of additions to my Gadanke journal. (I would add a link, but I'm writing this on my iPad and live in constant fear that anything I try even slightly out of the ordinary will vanish and destroy everything I've finally managed to write.)

All this to say, it's the super slow post holiday season at the shop, and in order not to bemoan the steady trudge of nothingness going on around me, I'm trying to get back to me here too. Hopefully, more to come, but I'm not holding my breath...
