or not – I’m Back! – Kind of!
I guess I should have put up a “Gone Fishing” post.
I needed to take a break but I didn’t think it would be this long. I’m doing fine healthwise and I have actually gained a few pounds – might have to buy some new clothes. 
I’m still skinny but for one of the few times in my life, I don’t have a flat stomach. Last time I remember having a belly was 24 years ago when I was pregnant.
To everyone who has left me messages, sent me emails and tweets, I’m sorry if I’ve caused you concern.
I’m trying to respond to all of you personally but it’s going to take me some time to get through all the emails and read the comments on my blog.
I went offline in March and didn’t come back until the end of June. There was a lot happening and I may tell you about some of it another time.
For now I’m back but I won’t be posting every day. I’ll try for at least once a week and take it from there.
Thank you to everyone who is still subscribed and my new subscribers. Even though I hadn’t posted anything in 3 months you still took a chance on me coming back to my blog. Thanks again and I hope I don’t disappoint you.
You guys have been awesome with your concern and support and I feel like sh** for just leaving and not putting up a “Gone Fishing” post like my friend PiP did.
I’ve missed you guys and I’m looking forward to reconnecting with everyone.
There is nothing bugging me today!

Good to hear that you are okay. I follow a few blogs written by persons with compromised health, and when the blogs suddenly stop, usually it means they have moved on. Glad you’re still with us! And welcome back.
I’m so glad to see you back here Rose, we really missed you. That’s fantastic about putting on a few pounds, I know how much it will mean to you.

Thanks to everyone who has left me a comment – you guys are all so kind and caring.
For now It’s just going to be one reply to all of you in welcoming me back.
I’m going to take Joss’ advice and
I’m also going to take it easy replying to everyone. I’ve got a few comments on other posts that could use some responses too!
I figured a little bit of me is better than none of me until I’m back into the swing of things and have more time to spend on the Internet.
Thanks again guys.
I am so glad you are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope all is well, and I look forward to hearing more from you soon
xoxo
So glad to read that you are on the mend. Missed your posts.
Thanks everyone. I still don’t have a lot of time to spend on the Internet but hopefully that will change in a week or two when things settle down a bit.
No worries, Rose! I’m glad to hear you are doing good. I figured life took you down another path but am soooo glad to see that path turned you back here.
Take care of yourself and don’t sweat the small stuff. We are all thankful you decided to pop your head back in to say hello. */* Hurray!!
