That Maine Girl's Been Away...

Have you ever spent 45 minutes creating a post only to delete the whole dang thing with one incredibly stupid keystroke? Have you ever naively thought you could retrive it, since Blogger kindly saves your drafts every few minutes, only to discover that the last save saved your blunder?

Good grief.

It's probably for the best. I waxed on for several paragraphs about why I've been away from my blog (which I warned you may happen ). Rather dreary and mundane stuff actually. I think my unfortnate delete may have been a little message from God to "lighten up." It's probably enough to say that the last couple of months were a little difficult and I spent a lot of time focusing my time and energy on my boys and attending to various health concerns--mine, my husband's, and loved ones' near and far. Too many doctor appointments and hospital visits. Creative pursuits fell to the bottom of the heap.

The good news is that I recently got a clean bill of health. The not-so-good news is that others I love are still waiting for theirs. But, hopefully this will soon be behind us. For now, I have a little time to return to the Blogosphere.
