Future Perfect Tense.
I wasn’t purposefully offline when the blog disappeared a few weeks ago…I was having an, erm, argument with my hosting company. At least it seems to be resolved. I had no access to the blog either. Sigh. Time to back-it-up.
We were in California last week and found a house to rent. It’s not big on character, but it does have room (or rooms) and a huge backyard for the dogs and the girl. And a little guesthouse for R.’s office. And orange and lemon and grapefruit trees. Novel. And we found a great preschool for The Bee, small, with a wonderful flower-laden outdoor space.
It’s been two years since I started this blog, and it may be time for a break. The host site fiasco perhaps was a message–or I took it to be one. I feel my Singing Bird voice slipping into something new. Spring. A new state. With new weather. So to speak.
So, this may very well be happy trails to you and yours. Thanks for all the community you lent me along the way. Peace.
Awwww. Why not a vacation, and not a cessation?

Oh! You’re back! I was worried! Please don’t go–take a vacation, as Johnny suggests. I value your posts. Otherwise, keep my email handy, as I do want to keep touch.

There you are, and, there you go.
I will miss your blog. Yours was the one that introduced me to a certain PAP community I hold so dear.
I’ll hold you dear. You and R and the Bee…

Cha Cha Cha changes…… I hope all goes well for you all in your transition. I sure hope you will be back as I really enjoy listening to your singing bird voice.

Ooh, the new house sounds fun. Now if only it had *two* wee guest houses - one for you, too! Keep in touch, ya hear?

I will miss you. You gave voice to songs simple and difficult, joyous and frivolous and silly and sad, and in so doing touched my life with your story and Emme Lu’s. Good luck, and have a long and happy life.

I’m a little late to the party, which is normal and glad to at least see the blog back intact. I’m wishing you awesome vibes for your cross country move, it’s always been an adventure and a whole new world that opened up to me everytime I moved states.
Best wishes and thanks for fulfilling us all with the latest pics of the bee.
