May 10-17, 2011-Back Online Again!

     The eight days covered by this post are a blur to me now....snippets in time I will never get back or even remember specifically since I have no written words or pictures from those days to "capture" them in time, even in the most mundane of ways.  I could have written about them anyway in a Word document or I could have written in one of my many "pen and paper" journals stuffed in my bedside table drawers with just one quarter or one half of the pages full, but I didn't. I recognize now my dependence on technology, on being able to "hook up" and write my blog and complete my every day job, research, vacation planning, banking, saving/investing, and shopping occasionally.  It was like, "well, I'm off-line, so I can't do my blog." I honestly didn't even think about keeping up with it by writing each night in Word, then saving it to post all at once when I had a chance....maybe subconsciously I needed an excuse to take a break or maybe work and life got so busy and overwhelming that the blog fell to the way side (which is the most likely and plausible schedule), but whatever the reason, the important part is that I am back online again, looking forward to sharing life with you all once more!
