To Blog Again

It has been awhile since I have blogged with any regularity. I don't want to lose the habit of writing. This blog and the pouring out of my thoughts and words has been invaluable to me over the last few years. Maybe it is just a loss of mojo or my muse or just me being lazy that has kept me from writing. For so long, I had to write. The ideas just bubbled up and I had an urgency to put my heart onto the screen. Since my desire is to write, record my life, I am going to try making myself write everyday like I did when I started this adventure. God knows I could use some discipline in my life.

I am grateful for the writing, grateful for the readers, grateful that my heart is here to reread. Maybe going back and rereading will inspire me to come back to the writing. Blogging has brought some wonderful people into my life, people who could held me up with their words and prayers.

This year is a new beginning for me. Cam, Britt and the kiddos are states away instead of just down the road, Tanner is back to finish up his degree, my job is foreign to me at the middle school, and natalie seems to work from dawn to dusk these days. Even my sweet husband has taken on a new job within the lab. Life was in transition this summer and now as we settle into our new roles I have just collapsed on the couch at the end of each day.

It is time to change that! Time to pick up my Bible, pick up my blogging, reach out to others and stop isolating myself. So call me for coffee and don't take no for an answer. Thank you for loving me through my life even when I have been distant. I am determined to pick up and move forward.

The best way out is always through.  Robert Frost
