A few weeks ago my therapist said, you ready to start blogging yet? And I said, maybe. But really I meant no. Sure I posted a bit but I just haven't been driven to write, share or basically sit still for any amount of time to concentrate. I haven't been able to read anything without getting uneasy, coudn't listen to music as it would irritate me. She suggested I start working in some meditating but conveniently I have been too tired, or busy or you know how the story goes.
Well lately I have been missing the community I found via blogging. I miss the friends I've met out here and following the stories they choose to share. Hell, I miss the friends I had before blogging. I just haven't been HERE much, let alone there or over yonder or anywhere really.
So today I cleared out my RSS feedreader of the hundreds of posts posted over the last few whatevers (weeks, months, I dunno), so the number didn't look so daunting. I unsubscribed to some blogs I really don't have that much interest in reading anymore (sorry Dooce, but something tells me you'll do fine without me). Then I took a bit of time to catch up on those I have been really missing and commented on just a half a handful. I realize this makes me a lurker, and I will only get out of the community what I put in, but I'm taking baby steps here and trying to find a way to maintain the community without so much of the time. We'll see how it goes.
I'm going back to bed now, because this whole waking up at 12am, 2am, then give up at 3am to open up the laptop to write down that thing that is nagging me, just to forget what it was until now at 4:40am, will not make for a good day.

ACK, 4:24 am? Horrid.
Glad you're getting back into blogging, though. Take it slow, and only comment where and when you NEED to for awhile. :)
I hope you get some rest soon!
Oh, Cherry, I hope you get some better sleep soon, my dear!
Ditto what J said about blogging. Glad to see you have a new post up!

I hope you feel better soon. And Happy delayed Anniversary. I remember reading all about the wedding and the honeymoon that wasn't last summer. Can't believe its been a year.
Stop worrying!

It takes energy and time to blog. I'm glad to see you back, but don't sweat it - it shouldn't be a chore! The community is still here ;)
