All that, and more

You might have noticed: I haven't been here much lately.

I started this blog back in the year of our lord just-got-divorced-and-need-to-figure-that-out. I started it as a sort of whispering out into the nothing, rather than a bottling everything up. And it helped a lot. And what do you know, the nothing turned out not to be nothing after all. I met so many astonishingly lovely other whisperers.

The Blog Whisperers! On CBS! I think it could work!

As with all my good intentions, my posting here has become somewhat...spotty? Yeah, let's go with spotty. It isn't that I'm not writing, or venting, or even social networking (Facebook, you crack pipe, I'm talking about you). It's just...

Here's the deal, or as close as I can come to it. I started this blog because my heart was broken, and I didn't know where to put it while I tried to piece it back together. My hands were full, you see.

My hands are still full, believe you me. Probably fuller, all things considered. I own my own business now. I'm a few weeks away from finishing a novel, which I (not unlike that matchmaker from "Fiddler on the Roof") will then schlep around, trying to hook it up with its one true love: some nice man or woman who will have it and hold it and make an honest book of it. I'm the full-time breadwinner of a family of four and full-time everything-person of two small humans who, despite what they've been through, are still wildly amazing, growing, thriving little people.

So now the small era of my life that signaled the interim between "married" and "widowed"--if I get to call it that, and you know what, I think I do--has ended, and so too, I think, must this little blip of anonymity that helped me get through it. I think it's time to let this particular blog to go to God (as we say when we found something unidentifiable in the back of the fridge), or wherever it needs to go, along with that particular piece of my life. That seems best, don't you think?

So, thank you for stopping by, and thank you for being lovely, you marvelous crazy nuts you. If you and I have already made our acquaintances (i.e., you know my real name), I'm on Facebook (and God help me, Twitter--it's mostly useless just now, but then someone once said that about the Blogs). I'm also in the process of starting another blog, the contents of which might or might not resemble the types of things I wrote here. I will probably keep stalking some of the people you see listed over to the left. (Thought you were going to get out of that one, didn't you?) If you want to know where to find me, email me. I'll keep that address open.

Oh, and Dr. B? Peeps are still NASTY. Some things, my dears, will never change.

xoxoxo and Namaste,
PK

Crud. Cannot remember your last name and thus cannot find you on FB!

Orange said...

Omigod, you are not kidding about those hellbound Peeps.

So, we Facebook friends will be given the keys to the new kingdom?

Psycho Kitty said...

Uh, sure. Not much of a kingdom yet--more of a bare-cement basement?

I'm so sad to see your blog go - we started blogging around the same time & I've been here since the beginning!

Facebook... um, I'm 99% sure I know your real name, but I don't know which one is you.

BTW - my word verification is handwood. LOL!

I was so happy to see you post! Then, so sad to see that it will probably be the last time. Very best of luck and warm wishes to you and your family. I am not on FB (but my husband is) and I do not know your real name (?) I'd love to get your book when it's published. My email is ckennedy@evergreeninvestments.com, or perhaps you could get the word out in the comments to another blog? (Catherine Newman's)In any event, all the best to you. --Cathy K.

Aw, you. Get that book published ASAP, because I like reading what you write.

I also was glad to see you post...and sad to see you won't be posting again. I had such a great time talking with you on the phone a couple years ago when you were in town on business. Really, I hope you won't disappear. I've been wondering how you've been doing. Wishing you all good things... *hug*

Can't wait to follow you on your future fancy author's blog. :)

(Your world verification thingie now is "uncol" which is like "uncool" which is sort of appropriate to the natural end of this blog's life.)

Jessica said...

Hey, PK...just seeing this; what you write totally makes sense.

See you on the crack pipe.

xoxoxo

You put that peeps note there just because you knew Easter was coming, didn't you?

Happy Easter! Have a peep!
