To be continued... but when?

I can't bring myself to do it.  I can't bring myself to shut down the blog.  I have no more readers.  I have no more time.  But I can't write the last post and officially close the door on this chapter of life. 

Just a few posts ago I was talking about my renewed desire to write and yet other, more pressing matters keep me away from the blog, as they should. 

But I can't say my final goodbye.  I like my username way too much.

You're right. Your username is 10 shades of cool. So don't hang it up just yet! Maybe all you need is a little month long break. Get some ideas and then come at it. You know sometimes the best way for me to write out a blog is with pen and paper. A little oxymoronic, I know, but sometimes my creative juices just flow better with pen and paper. Also, it gives you the freedom to write a few lines here and there when you're stuck in a waiting room or waiting for someone. I hope you don't give up!

I stopped once, but decided to limit this after some thought.

Why don't you just... do it as you can?
Why say goodbye, anyway, when you could just never come write again if that's where life takes you? Hmmm? No need to be all official about it, then feel tied to your decision...!

@saradisu - True enough... except that I've written before about what poor netiquette that is.  I get frustrated visiting blogs that never get updated, and think it's only kind to your readers to let them know where you're at.

Just write when you have the mood or the time. :) That's what I do.

Well, true fans would subscribe and get updates to their email accounts. Then they don't have the wasted time of looking at an empty blog! See?

Lori, I always come to your page when I am on Mark's computer and it's true I am a little disappointed when I don't see an updated page, but I get so excited when I do see one!  Do it when you have time, or take a longer break, see if you truly miss it and then commit to it again.  We all change as people and if you can't see yourself doing this or can't make the time for it, then maybe it's not where you are meant to be.  There's no shame in realizing that something must end; I think the tragedy would be continuing only with half a heart.
