I got lost.
One moment I was speed typing my thoughts across the page. My thoughts racing so fast I could barely keep up. I’d slap a corresponding picture up, type in a few tags and hit publish. Not once a day but several times a day.
The next moment, two years later or maybe it’s been three, I am looking at the screen wondering…. where did I go? What have I been doing?
I accomplished so much here and met so many people. And then it’s like I was abducted by aliens and I just disappeared from here. Sure I have posted a few things but the person I was got lost… or is she gone?
I’ve always hated the world blog. I mean it sound like something a frog would say as it’s clearing it’s throat. Nonetheless, I found myself blogging my feelings nearly 10 years ago as a way to exercise my demons. Because out of shape demons are nasty little bastards. Seriously though, I was just a person trying to keep her shit together. I mean some of you have been here from the beginning.
I wonder if you are still here?
This has always been a place for me to be real. Real with myself as much as anyone. So if I were to be REAL about where I have been I’d have to say I’ve been doing the hard work it takes to survive some major changes.
I got sober and I got a divorce.
Oh and my daughter is now a teenager.
I also fell in love with a really nice man. I feel lucky.
So I don’t think I got lost… but maybe just a bit sidetracked and here I am your prodigal sister wondering where you’ve been and what you’ve been doing.

Hasty, you’re not lost, just swimming in a different river.

I love how much knowledge you possess. I am glad we pass each other floaties on whichever river we happen to be on.

Have been here for a few years. We all wonder away from a chosen path from time to time. Only the lucky of us find our way back to it, from whatever direction.

Good to see you still at at! I’m trying to get the gumption up to start a podcast. Maybe we should all do that now instead of blogging??? Lol. Glad you’re doing so well. Weird how we’ve all changed since we started blogging.

A podcast would be wonderful. My daughter wants to be a film editor so I may see what she can do and add her videos to my blog somehow. One thing we can always count on is change.

It’s sounds like you maybe fell to pieces a little, but then you picked yourself up and put yourself together in a better way. You sound refreshed and ready to go again. :))

I’m here, Hasty. Sure, I left for two years, but I came back in part to see what you are up to. Maybe you aren’t lost, just in transit; life changes are great for that. Good to see you! 🙂
