Brief Note

I just wanted to post a message to say that due to personal family reasons I may not be around for a bit.

I wanted to post this so that folks didn't think I was abandoning my blog again, and most of all as a way to reach out to all my closer friends I email and communicate with privately too... I'm just not in a place to be able to contact everyone individually right now so apologies for this impersonal "blanket" message; you know who you are, and I will be in touch. Your friendship means a lot to me.

As to the blog, I've loved being "back" this past week and getting feedback again. I already set a week's worth of posts up to automatically post here on-schedule, so you may still see new stuff, and I hope you enjoy. Please continue to comment on old and new posts. Please continue to have fun here. I'd hate to dampen any enthusiasm or sense of enjoyment here, I just wanted to tell you why I may not be replying to everything right now.

Thank you to everyone who welcomed me back so warmly and kindly on my return, I feel bad about this but I have to prioritize. Yet you - my friends online, my blog readers, those I've met recently and those I've known for many years - are all very special parts of my life, and something I try to never take for granted.

I will be back.
