Life as I Know It; Family; Lifestyle; and Healthy Living!

There are so many happenings on JU now that I feel totally out of the loop. I don’t spend as much time as I used to because of the demands of my life, but I’m still here fairly frequently and I thought I knew most of what’s going on.


Let’s see, Simon and Whip or gone, so’s Furry Canary, and now Marcie Helen? Am I right? Well, I dunno, that’s my count so far anyway.


And some of the regulars are still here, I think, some I don’t see in my neck of the woods anymore. But life goes on and so does JU.


Changes are often difficult for most people and we all handle it differently. Some better than others.


I sometimes wonder if I seem too impersonal because I don’t get totally immersed in the dramas that unfold. I do get involved enough to have my say. But I don’t go off cocked saying my peace and so I wonder if I’m just too out of touch, seemed unimportant, or just disconnected?


I still enjoy reading the bloggers whose blogs I frequent. I try to stay in the loop so to speak but I feel lost somehow. Either I’ve lost touch with what they write about or they’ve lost touch with what I’m talking about. Somehow, I feel like I’ve been putting my foot in my mouth lately. I’ve gone missing for a day or so and come back to even more drama, and in the meantime, there I go blogging about my life, which is important to only me, I know, while there is so much more going on, a lot more than I know for that matter.


There are hints to stuff being said or written about that I’m clueless to. Ah well, I just get the feeling as if I’m playing in a minefield and wonder if it’s still safe to come and play.



Well, I dunno, I’ve still got a lot to share about my life, and a lot I have yet to dismantle and put together, writing for me is a therapy and a way of sorting things out. And man do I have a lot to say. Yet I know I have not been blogging as much, I’ve been reading a lot yes, connecting to other’s through their writings, yes. But it’s not that I don’t have anything to say about me, I just wonder if it’s worth doing so anymore?


Well truthfully it is because I’m doing it for me anyway. Well, this is what I get for wearing the wrong clothes today, too much introspection!


Well, anyways, I’ll tentatively put my big toe out to feel the waters around here. It’s been cooler than usual; hopefully it will get warm again.

I'm glad you're still here foreverserenity, you're worth having around. And I can see that maybe I'm worth it as well. I'm glad to be here too.

jump in just watch out for the sharks - ha ha. I try to stay out of it but I just couldn't resist making a smart ass comment on one blog so now I'm probably in it. Oh well.

I still like to read your stuff and always appreciate your comments on mine. I guess that's because you've always been nice to me and I like you.

We're allowed be self-centered on our blogs if we want. It's for us, right?

MM grabs forevers foot and rubs it between hands so it gets warmer.

It's not safe, but then again, it's never safe. People are strange things and we react oddly at times (rarely we react evenly). But as far as I'm concerned your blogging would be welcomed.
And your list of people who aren't here anymore is missing the instigator of this recent drama, Lord Cap'n Xander Kittysnoggins. It's all his fault, I'm sure of it.

Thx Joe! The feeling is mutual. I can say I'm glad you're here too.

It's safe unless you intend to jump in only to splash water in the face of the admins and go back up on the beach to call them names and complain about the weather.

It has always been safe to write about whatever topic you want foreverserenity. If you post to the forums you are subject more to the admins discretion. If, however, safe means you expect to dish crap to Brad and the admins and have them say "thank you, may I have some more" then no, it isn't safe.

I've never seen anything from you that hinted toward that kind of behaviour though. I think most of the bloggers here have the common decency required. Plus, you said that you are blogging for yourself and that tells me you are going to continue to enjoy the place. You have your priorities in the right place whether you know it or not.

I felt much the same coming back after a few weeks of rarely getting in to read. Ah well... life goes on. I think we all go through phases of taking time away when life gets busy, and that's not a bad thing.

Glad you jumped back in forever, I always enjoy your stuff.

Foreverserenity: you're such a sweetheart, you'll always be welcome here! we loves ya kid! and if ya want a good giggle, I was gone for a day or so, had missed the drama and wrote a blog, rather blithely I might add, and it got put on the top? list or else maybe featured, not sure, however it showed how out of it I was! Like there was nothing happening here!
jeepers!
so blog away forever, I will continue to also

Good to know Doc, which means I won't get bitten.

I don't think it's nice to call anyone names at all. Too bad not many follow this rule eh?!


If, however, safe means you expect to dish crap to Brad and the admins and have them say "thank you, may I have some more" then no, it isn't safe.


Hehe, boy I would have to duck and run for that one Jill! No, I meant if all was calm and quiet now. It's like when you're young and your parents are in a bad mood and you do everything to stay out of the way. And with all the head rolling going on it feels as if something is missing somehow. It's just my impression, nothing more. But it's good to know that all subjects are still open for discussion.


You have your priorities in the right place whether you know it or not.


Thx!

Nope, that's not a bad thing at all. It brings some reality back into the situation.


Glad you jumped back in forever, I always enjoy your stuff.


Thx Tonya, ditto!

So appropriately stated... me too!

Nice to see you Serenity...I hope to jump back in myself again once the madness that surrounds my life right now slows down.

---I don’t spend as much time as I used to because of the demands of my life---

I haven't been in here as much either. Not that I wrote alot to begin with. My goal is to write an article every other week. 26 a year is a nice number.

Like you though I read as much as I can when I am here. I do miss your writings, FS.

btw .. you don't stick your big toe in to test the waters you're suppose to just dive on in .. it's okay there's a roped off area just for you.
