I’ve been writing online since I was in the tenth grade.
That’s…
tenth, eleventh, twelfth, freshman, sophomore, junior, move to Oregon, get married, husband gets cancer, one year cancer free, buy a house, get a dog. TWELVE YEARS.
*falls over dead*
It is engrained in my daily life at this point. I don’t know how to live a life without a blog.
That strikes me as terribly sad.
I’m going to go have experiences without writing about them for the first time in a very long time.
Writing about my life isn’t what validates me.
I don’t know what I’ll do.
Read my Bible more.
Floss my teeth on a daily basis.
Maybe get tired of not sharing and come back and write.
Maybe here.
Maybe not.
I need life off of the computer screen for a while.
I will still tweet and instagram.
But no more blogging.
Not for now, at least.

This is kind of relief because well, I haven’t been reading *any* blogs lately. Just social media. But maybe that needs to change? Or maybe it’s a sign that I need to check in on how your life if more often. I think the last point is the main point.
Good luck to you with your endeavors. I will miss reading your blog. Enjoy your time off. I admire your courage in light of all the problems you’ve faced. You really have a talent for writing. Hope you fit into your bridesmaid dresses and that you have a wonderful time in Florida for your brother’s wedding. As we say in Spanish, “hasta luego” (see you again).
I will miss you writing. From this blog I learned that apples and almond butter are one of my favorite foods… I hope you come back.
