Omigod!
I missed you, my friends; my blog readers. I realize such a prolonged silence has distanced many of you and I will work hard to bring you back. I thank you - many of you - for e-mailing me and commenting during the summer, checking in on Facebook and following me on Twitter, etc. I was touched to be missed.
Also, I've been tinkering with my TUMBLR. I enjoy that site a lot.
"Hey. Enough with the sentiment. Where were you?!"
Yeah, that's a fair question.
Work has been busy. And my volunteer commitments have been busy (and thank goodness because I still very much love my kids). I've been networking a lot and meeting new friends and fundraising for charity. I was dealt a crushing blow at the beginning of summer with some family tragedy and that took me some time to adapt to. I spent a lot of time hiding. A LOT. I've been reading and watching TV, trying to write (I started a book!) and trying to find small ways to stand up for myself a little more.
Aside from that, I had my identity stolen and let me assure you, as you are all clearly internet lovers as I am - THAT SUCKED. And dear lord, BE CAREFUL.
And shit, this blog is called "Confessions of a Fat Girl" so let's make this comeback relevant... I DID drop some weight this summer. It was not the dramatic transformation I'd envisioned long ago but it's coming along. Slow and steady wins the race, right? I've had some health problems try to stop me but I am dealing with those, too.
I thought about really coming back with a bang and even revising my whole layout... I don't know about that, though. If it ain't broke, right? You tell me what YOU think...
In conclusion, as a I leave you on this comeback's eve, I offer the following:
- I won't disappear again. I think. For a while.
- You MUST listen to "The Club Can't Handle Me" from Flo Rida. I know this is totally random but clear the furniture, turn up the volume and dance to this song. It's my song of joy right now.
