I really enjoyed getting to know you and your family. Yes, Blogville is changing, but hey, as we know, life throws us all curves. I don't come in as often, but the habit is tough to break. I really enjoyed your balanced look at life and its challenges. Come back soon.

It certainly is a summer of introspection and transition for many of us, isn't it?! You know that I support you, know matter what.

Hugs to you, Thomas and the girls.

Like you, I went into a reunion of sorts with friends that I've known for years and have loved dearly with my heart just recently, and realized the place we all met at will forever be in my heart, because it's what started my marriage.

If you decide to come back, you know I will be here to read.

I know I'm not around much, and it's due to a myriad of things, but you know you can ALWAYS, always contact me here or on myspace, or whatnot. You're a kindred soul to me, you've helped me keep sanity even when you needed to keep your sanity just as much. You truly are a virtual best friend Susan. If you decide to move on with your life and meet new horizons, please remember me, and don't hesitate to keep me updated in some fashion please.

I love hearing about you and your girls and you and Thomas.

Congratulations on reaching the final page of your blog! I know there are so many more chapters, happy and wonderful chapters, to continue in your life, and I know that your kind and sweet heart will always meet the challenges ahead with an open heart, an open mind, and bright ideas.
All my

to you, your girls, and Thomas.

May you all have the most wonderful, happy and blessed lives that ever graced Minnesota!

you.

Congratulations, precious lady. You've done a fantastic job with his blog over the years. You've helped many people who are struggling with the same issues you've struggled through. You've shared your serious side, your humorous side, your touching side, and your many viewpoints on everything from politics to child-rearing. This blog has been a blessing to many people.

Yep, blogville is changing. But that's a good thing. Change is an integral part of life. Everything around us is in a state of flux and if blogville didn't mirror that, it would not be in touch with reality. Blogville changing equals good, all the way around.

Some aren't blogging as much as before. Some are blogging more than ever. Some are moving on to bigger and better things. Some are just moving on. Some are taking a much-needed break. Some are giving a much-needed break to us.

At any rate, the changes and comings and goings are necessary.

You say you haven't decided if you'll start a new blog yet. I'm not claiming to have insider information on this --

-- but I'm quite positive that you will grace those in blogville with your gentle and grounded presence once again. And I can't wait to see what you come up with next.

I love you, precious lady.

Kudos to you for your long running blog! I agree with Scarlett about the quality. And it's wonderful to see how much it's helped you. I came in right before you and Thomas became a couple. What a joy to follow!

I understand the desire to take a break, of course. Best wishes for whatever you decide.

I switch blogs come autumn. I will continue to blog, but it does take up time. I rethink my approach to blogging once in awhile, try something new. Don't be gone too long.

Remember...A house is just a shell. Home is the people that reside there and you and Thomas will find a lovely home together...Of that, I have no doubt.

Once again, we find ourselves going through a similar transition. You can always call and we can commiserate/celebrate together.

Hmmm...I can't even begin to imagine why your adrenal glands would peter out.

Oddly, my sister told me to have the levels of my adrenal glands checked. As much as our lives have paralled, does that surprise you?

I have an appointment for a physical on the 18th. I'll be expecting an update from you after you've schedule yours...after all, what are friends for?!

I hope that you have the diagnosis right and are able to help yourself. I know what it feels like to go through the day in a daze and not be able to think or do more than the absolute esentials.

If you can, you really should go to a doctor and have the problem verified. Many years back I went to the doctor because I thought that I had high blood pressure, but it turned out that I had diabetes. So, I do believe a second opinion is helpful.

Whatever is going on, I do hope you feel better very soon.

Hugs

This has been a tough year in many ways. The economy tanking at the same time your ex stopped paying child support really knocked us on our butt and we really haven't recovered yet, but I know it's coming. We'll get through it and when we do, we'll not need to depend on someone else.

Then there's the girls. They are wonderful, creative, and posess excellent senses of humor, but they have had their moving pangs as well and I think they're finally starting to feel like Rochester is home.

Then there's the housing issue. We'll find a place.

Then there's the myriad of other issues that come and go and so I totally understand all the stress you've been under, but I just want you to remember what a fantastic job you do. Look at all the stuff that's come down in the past two years and how you're here, still standing, ready to take on still more. You're an amazing woman and I know you're going to knock this ball out of the park just like you've knocked so many out before it. And now that you have a bat boy with you, it should be easier.

I love you sweety.
