Bye-Bye
by Kym on March 12, 2008
For reasons of physical and mental well being, I’m taking a wee break from the computer. Things have gone through hectic and out the other side to a place I like to call Pandemonium. Packing needs to be done. There are mountains of laundry. Sticky spots on the floor. You know. That sort of thing.
I broke down and sobbed today. Notice I didn’t say cried. I said sobbed. Yes. A break is definitely called for.
I shall return Monday full of renewed vigor and with photos of my exploits (including a trip to see the in-laws this weekend…pray for me…I don’t travel well).

You are a busy woman, trying to pack and relocate and all! Heck, I had a big sob-fest today and I have just a fraction of your stress. So yes, take a break. And yes, I will be here when you get back! Love ya!

Best wishes, Sweetie! :) Hope you get some time for all that you need.

Cheers!

Blogging should be fun. When it isn’t fun, when it causes stress, STOP. It isn’t a job. Take a nice long break, until it feels like something fun again. Take care, sweet Kim.

I am saying lots of prayers for you! You can conquer!

Moving and packing always makes me verge on hysteria, and I don’t have 2 little rugrats. :D Breaks are good, enjoy it and I hope you can get to a point where you feel a bit organized or less frazzled. We’ll be here waiting.

I hope your trip renews you. I tend to blog every day in spurts and then take sabbaticals in spurts. I guess I’m just inclined to do whatever my spirit is up to at the time. Sometimes it needs a rest. Take care and look forward to seeing you again soon.

STRESSSSSS! Yes, you are entitled to a well-deserved break. Well, if break was actually what you were doing. Happy packing, dearie!

Ack! Now I’m kicking myself for not sending you an email sooner. I’m sorry! Thank you though for being the encouraging, uplifting, and faithful friend who always makes my day feel like there’s sunshine somewhere close. I will look forward to your return and will pray diligently for your time with the inlaws.
Oh, and enjoy your break. It’s rather nice, I must say, and may tempt you to stay away longer. I know it sure tempted me. But we’ll be glad to see you back after you get some time to pack, travel, and all that stuff. Here’s hoping and wishing that you’ll get some good rest in too!
much love, Sara

Ahhh hon, it’s about time you mad woman. You’re moving soon. Do what you need, pack, rest, cuddle, whatever, we will be here. Much hearting.

Enjoy your break and have a safe and fun trip. We, along with the internet, will still be here when you get back.

Be well, feel well. Blogging is supposed to be fun. No sobbing just fun. Enjoy your time, though. Bloggy vacations are sooo good for the soul.

Have a nice break! Good luck with the laundry and sticky spots and packing and everything else!
by Hillary on March 14, 2008 at 8:05 pm. #
I agree with what Sue said, if it’s getting to stressful to be posting on your blog, DEFINITELY take a break. I know I haven’t been here in a while, but I will keep checking back and reading the posts that I missed, and once that’s done, I’ll be waiting for you to come back. Hope you feel better when you come back!

I wrote the reminder on my letter-sized dry-erase board 18 years ago … My daughter (then 10) coloured all of the letters and background with EVERY dry-erase colour in the box. It sits next to me now. And says
“Be Still … And know.”

Be careful. Be safe.

Everybody is taking breaks – everyone! I hope you find what you need. Don’t be a stranger too long.
