Wee Blogging Break

>> Thursday, June 25, 2009

I'm planning to stop blogging for a while. I prefer to keep this blog light and fun, which is unfortunately not reflective of my current state of mind.

I notice that most of my posts over the past two months have been about death or near-death. Death is on my mind a lot I guess, especially over the past two weeks having had a friend lose her son and another friend leave her young son behind after succumbing to a long battle with an illness.

Don't really see the point in continuing this on a half-assed basis while I focus on other things for a while to reevaluate, renew, rejuvenate, etc, etc.

Got some good stuff in the queue, but lack the motivation to do a proper writing job of it. Maybe more will come when the knots in my stomach release and the tangle of my mind unfurls.

I am ok, for anyone concerned. More than ok -- very, very blessed and thankful for everything and everyone I know, both offline and online.

See you soon!

xoxo
Lana

I'll miss your posts but I totally understand seeing as I've halted my blogging for much the same reason.

Hi Lana: My best wishes to you during this respite. We all need it sometimes and I'm glad you're taking care of yourself. I'm a subscriber, so when you're ready to blog again, I'll be one of the first to read about your return.

Kind regards,
Amy P.

Lana, I was wondering what was up. I'm so very sorry to hear about the loved ones in your life.

Life really does suck swamp water some times.

HUGS! Take care.

Knowing the mum of the young guy who recently died, I understand all too well. And as a parent my blood ran cold a few days ago when our 18 year old - who didn't know the young man who died - begged yet again for a motorcycle. Sometimes I can't bear to read the news.

will miss your blog, but also blessed and thankfull to have you as a friend :)

About Phuket

It's pronounced "pooh-ket", not "fuckit".
Its population is roughly 30% Chinese-Thai, 30% Malay Muslim Thai, 30% Buddhist Thai and an assortment of nutjobs and wackos such as myself.
It's a great place to come for holiday, but I'd rather you not because there's enough traffic here already, thank you very much.
It's a long way from Canada.
