Apologies and Appreciation

I'm still here. Really, I am. I just haven't been here here. Does that make any sense at all??

I feel that I should apologize for staying away for so long. I didn't do it on purpose. It just ... happened. I couldn't believe it when I noticed that it had been almost two weeks since my last blog entry! Gracious! Time does have a way of flying by, doesn't it. I truly did intend to post here every day, but when it came to actually coming over here and sitting down at the puter, I just couldn't. It's very difficult to explain. I guess it's just that .... I have so much to think about and deal with every single day, so when I have a moment to myself when I can actually sit and just chill, I do. I couldn't bring myself to sit here and think about everything all over again, and the last thing I felt was cordial. I'm so sorry. You have all been so amazingly wonderful to me! I just couldn't .... "be there", know what I mean? As I said, it's very difficult to explain.

I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your outpouring of love, encouragement and support. It means more to me than I can say, and is much more than I deserve. As I read through your beautiful messages to me, my eyes welled with tears and my heart burst with gratitude and appreciation. THANK YOU SO MUCH! smily

I wish I could report that things here are looking up, especially for my Mother, but I cannot. Fact is, it won't get better for her. There seem to be new hurdles every day, so my sisters and I keep jumping the best we can. I don't want to sit here bemoaning my problems, so I will just keep it at that. Please know how much we appreciate your good thoughts and prayers.

I promise that I will try to do better in the future with my posting, and also with my blog visits and emails. I absolutely think of you all every single day, and count my lucky stars that you are who you are, and that you care about me. Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH! I love you all!

Thoughts from others

Leigh, we're all here for you, whether you're "here" or not. You certainly don't need to make any apologies for not blogging, though. We all know you're dealing with a lot.

You, your Mom, and your family are all in my thoughts and prayers. Take care of yourself as best as you can, ok? *hugs*

Leigh, just take care of yourself :) :) We're here for you (but I'm glad to have you check-in once in awhile!). Your family is in my thoughts!

*BIG HUGS*
Take care of yourself!

You mean so much to us, Leigh... and if you have to take time for you, that's more than ok with us. There's no need to feel so bad about not blogging... you are needed elsewhere, and we know that you are dealing with a lot... remember, you are never alone. We are all here for you ^_^ Love you, Lady!

Glad to see you back on line!! just jump in and leave a frowney or a smilie or something so we know you are still in there. No need to write. Life is a bitch sometimes. I hope things get better for you really soon.

You don't have to apologise to us. We know you are dealing with so much at the moment and especially with regards to your mum. We all get into that phase where we sit at our computer and the words just don't come as we have thousands of thoughts crisscrossing in our mind. We understand and will continue to send positive thoughts and hugs in your direction. Promise us that you will treat yourself gently and with tender loving care, that you will nuture your heart and soul and your inner child. We love you too Leigh (((hugs)))

Oh my, I could post all the happy smilies on and on, but I'm jumping up & down in my chair, so happy to see you have posted something, I'm just so glad to see you back Leigh, we all have missed you soooooooooo much! Love you.... (((hugs))) xoxoxoxxox

i remember about twelve years ago, i was canoeing in Georgia. three other men and myslef were on a seven day trip. all water, little land, camping and such. one day, about five days into the trip, we were met with rain, a strong head wind, and the longest distance of water to travel from one camp site the the next. we paddled. i ached, my hands hurt, my back screamed and there was none of the pristine beauty, nor peaceful vistas of the days before to break the constant pain and effort. there was little to do but paddle another stroke, bend once more into the wind and heave the oar. that night we fought wind and rain as we made camp, ate cold food, and crawled wet and cold into the tent. the next day, the rain had stopped and the morning greeted us with a blazing red sunrise and the clear call of cranes, hearlding what would be the most wonderful day we had experienced in the trip.

Leigh, lean once more into the day...and may your 'next day, soon arrive.

Hi Girl,

I am sorry about your mom. . ((((big hugs))) Hang in there and don't worry about us. We will be here.

Take care of yourself.

You absolutely do deserve every single bit of friendship, love, support, encouragement, and good wishes. This wouldn't change whether you posted once a day or once a year. You're the kind of lady who leaves an imprint on the heart and are in our thoughts as often as you think of us.

It was so nice to know that you and your family are hanging in there, Leigh.

You said it Leslie! ;)

When I hit my darkest moments this past fall, I shut down and didn't talk to anyone. It was just necessary for me to heal enough on my own before I could talk to others.

Once I was able to talk, I couldn't stop. When you hit that moment, we are all listening. Hang in there.

Happy Birthday Leigh!!!! (Tuesday - March 16th) Just think you were almost a Shamrock!! Bahahhahaha!!! *wink* Love you dearly, and so happy to see you back! ((((hugs))) xoxoxox

I found you in a search for myself. I'm Leigh. My husband is Patrick. So this site popped up.

I just thought I would say hello and tell you I like your blog. You seem to have wonderful friends. That must bring you much joy.


Best wishes.
L.
