Back Bloggin' Better Than Ever
This photo is for my newfound friend, Christine (from Idaho). I realized this weekend that this silly blog connects me to some wonderful people. . .even to some I don't know I'm connected to. I wonder if people who don't know me and read think I'm crazy?. . .maybe I am. Maybe that's part of the fun--having people get to know you from your own one-sided conversation with yourself. It's pretty cool and sometimes it makes me feel like a celebrity. . .and you know how much I love that!
Some of you faithful WFB viewers have probably noticed my recent blogging dry spell. Some call it blogging burnout. I prefer to refer to it as a bad case of blogger block. It's less serious than burnout, but more deadly than being on a blogging break. The fact of the matter is that I was starting to feel like my entries were redundant and boring. I was losing some of my creative steam and it showed. It's really the first time in a year and a half where I haven't had a great desire to record, share, or be ridiculous. The good news is that I've taken the last few days off and feel completely refreshed and ready to strut my ever-bloggin' stuff. I now realize that a great deal of my hesitancy in posting has to do with my photography neglect. XT has spent much too much time in her bag. Don't get me wrong, SD is a darling little thing. . .convenient, too, but she can't compete with the XTravaganza. XT has been on a brief vacation because her battery charger is somewhere between Honolulu and Salt Lake. The good news is that today I went to pick up some photos and there under the gleaming glass counter was the exact replica of the missing charger. I just gazed into the eyes of the photo assistant and quickly asked him to remove the little gem so I might fondle it. That thing could have cost a fortune and I wouldn't have blinked. I suppose what I'm trying to say is that with the return of XT, a little time for personal introspection, and a lot of great things in life. . .I'm back and bloggin' better than ever.

Welcome back!! I had noticed a miniature drought though I had never noticed any creative gaps.
Thanks for putting a part of me on your blog. Now I really feel special, cause hey, you are a celebrity! I probably should have introduced myself earlier and made known my addiction to your blog! It gives me a little escape from my world of three children and never-ending housework. All this talk of decluttering has made it possible for me to let go of the hundreds of Happy Meal toys I've held on to (I can't let go of anything!). It just might inspire me to start my own blog! Thanks!
Hey, dad! Thanks for the stickin' with me. I love ya.
Hey, Christine! Congratulations on letting go of those Happy Meal toys. That shows a great deal of decluttering courage. . .way to go. Glad to see your first of many comments!
