Eleven months or so

It’s nearly a year since I last wrote in here.

I’ve recently been doing a little reading of some of my faves and I want to say a big THANK YOU to all of them that have still got me as a favourite on their diary. OK, maybe you were going to delete me tomorrow, but you haven’t yet!

Life is as ever chez moi et mon fils. Day to day things have happened, but nothing that I felt was worthy of a public diary entry. It’s like I’ve had writing depression. I’m pretty well fine in real life, but on here, I feel boring and can’t be bothered – or if I do feel like writing, I feel the subject is so non-interesting that I don’t bother.

Sadly, most of my life for the last year or so has been around work. I do love my jobs, but I know I’m compensating for my lack of a family with them. See? Not good diary material.

I need to look on things with a dollop of humour; then maybe I can write something.

This entry is my first tentative step to rejoining the OD family. I hate Christmas (I’m enquiring into serving dinners to the homeless on Christmas Day this year), but nevertheless, I wish everyone a very happy time and a good rest from work.

Love and hugs to anyone that will take them!

Oh, how good to see you here again! Welcome back! I’m glad your life is “pretty well fine” and look forward to reading lots of entries, no matter how boring. (And I can’t imagine you looking at life without a dollop of humour.)Just look at lal the things ther est of us write about. A good proportion of my most recent entries have been about the kittens a neighbour’s cat decided to deposit on me;I’m sure you can do less boring than that! 8grin*

hello! it’s nice to see your name in bold, even if you don’t feel much like writing. would love to hear more about the job, and son and anything else going on. glad you’re doing well.

Yes, you are still on the list – and I looked just Wednesday to see how long it had been. Glad to see you back.

Good to see you in bold. I hate when it feels like a chore to write. I think everyone battles that occasionally.

Great to see you back!!! I deleted a few long lost souls last week, but I said to myself…”Self, she will be back.” And I was right. Your life is far more interesting to others than it is to you. Trust me in this. Write rants…they’re terrific fun to read.

Well, I’m glad you came back. I think about you a lot, and we keep trying to keep the email thing going then failing miserably. Life is just stupid-busy isn’t it? I have totally hated 2007 and can’t wait for it to end and become another, generally more promising, year. Somehow, I doubt it will be that much better overall, but it can’t possibly be as bad as this year has. Hope you have a greatChristmas and New Year.
