Dear Friends,

I am about to do something that I never thought I would do, and that is take a small break from blogging. I have been at this for a variety of seasons in my life, and I plan to return. I write. It's part of how I process thoughts and ideas. It's part of how I remember life. It's part of how I share things with people.

I actually thought about just keeping up a skeleton blog. Posting 2-3 times a week in order to keep things active. But right now my words are being spent in another area, and I know that if I don't take a break I will simply end up deleting what I do share OR not sharing anything anyway.

I'm thinking I will return around the end of Lent. This wasn't planned, and I normally don't give anything up for this season. I simply don't find it a coincidence that I have come to this decision at this time. Everyone who gives you rules on "How to have a Good Blog" says that I should give you notice when I'll be away for a while. Consider this notice given.

Most of the people who share their days with me here are friends who I am in contact with in other ways, so I don't plan on losing contact with any of you. I simply need to close shop for a time period. So, thank you for your friendships. I will see you around the old familiar haunts.

My daze are still unfinished, so I will see you on the flip side.
