Hey, Folks...


Allow me to state the obvious. I’m back.

“Bold, bouncy and beautiful” as ever. Kind of like that L’Oreal commercial – but not. It describes luxurious, long curly hair which I possess only in my dreams.

In fact, none of those “B” words are particularly appropriate. I just thought it was an upbeat, catchy phrase to use to get back in the flow of things.

To be honest, it wasn’t so easy returning this time. I contemplated both a serious and humorous post. Neither seemed fitting. That other business is still ongoing but I wanted to come back. If I waited until matters were settled, I might as well throw in my blog towel. I’m not prepared to do that. This is a niche in life that is all mine.

Please bear with me while I catch up on your blogs and my comments.

Welcome back!! It's nice to see a photo with arms up in the air in victory!! I do that all the time when something I'm trying to do works out -- so I'm glad that you aren't throwing in the blogging towel and that you are keeping this little niche for yourself...and of course one of those b words describes you--beautiful. Silly goose.

Angel said...

I'm so glad you're back, and belive me, you are every single one of those words!!! My daily "blog walk" isn't the same when you're not here...

Let's hear it for niches that our all ours! Glad to see you back.

So glad to hear from you, you sound strong..love the optimistic photo you chose...makes me think things aren't going too badly anyway, all things considered...hang in there...glad your with us again, even if only for a bit.

Sherry said...

Me again!! I've left something for you at Sage today (Feb. 27th).

sherry:
The victory is in the coming back - something I decided to do for me.
And why does being called a "silly goose" by you seem like a term of endearment? (Because I certainly can be a true silly goose...)

beth:
Keep walking by my blog - as I do yours. We go way back...

mrs.g:
Was missing my niche - thanks for the welcome back!

oreneta:
Glad to be here again - and being optimistic is a must.

Rebecca said...

Yay! You're back!
You've created a monster by posting nearly every day, Beth. Other bloggers (like, ahem, me), can "disappear" for weeks at a time and not be missed.
Anyway, hope it all went okay.

Welcome back!
:)

Beth said...

sherry:
Will check it out ASAP.

rebecca:
Well, I miss you and I wish you'd post more often. And now you have that VERY important date coming up. You'll end up posting even less!

lainey-paney:
Thanks - I've been checking in with your blog and will continue to do so. Hope all goes well.

Welcome back Beth! The blogging world just isn't the same without you.

Cipriano said...

Really really GOOD to have you back in Bloggola-land.
Sometimes, you are my LAUGH-du-jour.
[And I don't even know French!]

Shari said...

Dudette, totally understand. Even with the schoolwork and stuff, I don't want to really "throw in the blog towel", though I do try to keep up with the my blog rounds. Hard to do so I just do it when I can. I'll still check in anyway. :)

Glad you are back in any shape or form-funny, serious, or just blogging.

The Guy Who Writes This said...

Oddly, you and Trish always take off from blogging at the same time. I'm starting to wonder if you are one and the same???

Beth said...

psychgrad:
Thanks - I missed being a part of this world.

cip:
Merci. Vous (not "tu" - we haven't even met) fournissez des rires pour moi aussi!

shari:
Your schoolwork comes first - but don't throw in that blog towel! You would be missed.

cheri:
Thanks for visiting. Mrs. G. is great, isn't she?

guy:
Someone finally caught on! Yes, Trish and I are one and the same - and it isn't easy keeping two blogs going. That's why we need the breaks.
(Where is that woman???)

Gahaha!

You guys are funny . . .

Beth said...

trish:
Yes, "we guys" (that would be Guy and I) are very funny!

Angela said...

What a great image to represent your return! Just what I needed to see and read today. Thank you for it. Many blessings on you, Beth. You are awesome!

Barrie said...

Welcome back, Beth! May the other stuff sort itself out properly. And may we enjoy loads of posts from you! :)
