How Emilie got her groove back

I know what you're going to say.

"Where have you been? Why did you stop writing? What's going on?"

More likely, you might be saying "You took a break? I hadn't noticed."

To those of you who DID notice, thanks. Your kind words meant a lot. And to those of you who didn't . . . I'm taking you out of the will.

Anyway. I did take a little vacation there for awhile, mostly because my job search was overwhelming me and I found I had nothing to say and no creativity with which to say it. All the time I normally would have spent blogging was spent looking for a job, and I felt like I was being irresponsible if I DIDN'T spend my time that way.

But I've figured out that I have to continue doing the things that bring me joy and fulfillment, regardless of what else is going on in my life. And I need this outlet to help me work through the emotional ups and downs that come with searching for a new job. So the posts you get for the next few months may be disjointed, or random, or downright incoherent. But they'll be there as regularly as I can manage.

And I think it's possible that the job hunt is looking up. More on that at a later date.

It's good to be back -- MWAH!

  1. Welcome back!!!! I probably would have noticed quicker if I was actually caught up on my reader. But, life has been going on, and my reader is full. LOL
