I do still exist...

...although I've been neglecting this blog shamefully. Sorry about that.

First of all, thank you to all you wonderful people who've left messages of condolence on my previous post. Your thoughts and cyber-hugs and cyber-cups of tea mean so very very much to me.

I am doing well, adjusting to my new life, finally energized to really tackle all the sorting and organizing that's needed in my apartment, involved in writing and in an online writing community.

As for the organizing -- I'm amazed at how much I can get done when I actually do things! But, to be honest, in the past two years my focus and energy were given to my parents. That's as it should be, and I'm so grateful I had the opportunity to be with them as much as possible in the past two years. Now there's all kinds of time to do other things, and I'm glad I didn't focus on those other things then, and lose the opportunity to be with Mum & Dad.

All is well. I have my moments of sadness of course, but for the most part, I'm doing well, and for that I am grateful.

I'll try to keep up on this blog -- this is an important community to me, and I appreciate your friendship very much, never doubt that.

Thanks again for your messages of support and for your thoughts. Many hugs to you!
