I’ve Missed So Much…
Obviously, I have been away for quite awhile now, lol.. or did you not notice? I know some of you did because you have sent me lots of really nice messages via comments on the latest posts and many via the contact form on the site. You all are so nice and I feel bad that I haven’t posted something sooner.
First off, and I suppose you can tell if you are reading this, I am indeed alive and kicking. When I first quit posting it was mainly because of two things, both of which had to do with real life intervening..
My grandmother became seriously ill, bed ridden and subsequently passed away. My mother had moved her into her house and needed all the help she could get, so I tried to step in where I could. During that time, it became quite obvious that I had a “stalker” issue going on that had me completely freaked out. It seemed my “sicko” cyber acquaintance was using the info I posted on here and by lurking at some of my other sites, to keep up with everything going on in mine and my children’s lives. It would have freaked me out enough if I was flying solo here, but when my children started being mentioned.. well.. hmmm.. I think you all can imagine how that affected me.
Other than the above, my kids have kept me jumping while out of school for summer vacation, we are selling our beach house which has required WAY too many trips to the beach over the last two months, honest to God, if I never see sand again as long as I live I will be one happy little buckaroo! Meanwhile, my oldest son got his driver’s license (yay him!!) and now I’m trying to teach him how to drive a manual transmission car (5 speed).. and let me just go ahead and say HOLY SHIT!!! I’ll tell you more about our attempts with that at another time.
You know, I just realized I summed up the past 2 months of my life in two paragraphs, lol.. damn that’s sad! Oh well whatever. I did realize while I was away however, how very time consuming it is to blog.. if you want to do it right that is, which of course I do, but simply don’t have the time to. So this is my revised attempt at fitting it into my life without it affecting other/previous obligations.. and hopefully without any sicko bastards lurking around this time. 
Okie dokie, I think that is about enough for now.. other than this…
I want to wish a lifetime of happiness and best wishes to two of my blogging buddies that got married while I have been away.. Michelle and Ryan. Of course, they didn’t marry each other, they each married their significant other and I just couldn’t possibly be happier for them. So this song is for the 4 of you.. “Ryan and Girlfriend Wife” and “Michelle and Montreal Photographer”. I want ya’ll to play it and dance with your new spouses.. to make me happy.
By the way, if anyone knows how I can find Michelle, I would appreciate the directions, lol.. it seems Once Upon A Time, her former blog is gone. Thanks!
I hope being the first one to comment here won’t make me appear creepy or stalkerish. I just missed you!
I’m so very sorry about your Grandma.
I’m glad you’re back.
Glad you made it back. So sorry to hear about your Grandma.
So glad you are back!! We totally missed you. You need to stop by the bloggy. So much you have missed. Gosh woman.

@ SoozieQ.. LOL, it doesn’t make you appear creepy at all! I’ve missed you too and have actually been to your blog several times while I’ve been away. I’m an insomniac too btw. :p
@ emilyhope.. Thank you! It’s good to be back!
Thank you both for your sympathy regarding my grandmother, it’s much appreciated.
@ Snowman.. I’ve missed you all too! You have a baby???? Okay either there’s something to that or it was the shortest gestational period in history, lol. I will definitely be stopping by to see what that is all about.
@ SmilingMom.. Thank you kindly! And I’m NOT having a baby either, lol.
@ tysgirl.. I’ve missed you too girl, however probably not as much haha.. I’ve been keeping up with your happenings.. nuts in the face *snicker*. That post had me laughing my ass off as I read it. And regarding the texting with SoozieQ.. is Tiger Beat still being published.. my God that hit me like a blast from the past!
p.s. I figured you weren’t having a baby yet since the sky didn’t fall or anything like that.
OMG! She really is having a baby! Snowman.. I’m so happy for you!
Congratulations to you and Wes!
It’s about fucking time you came back.
I’m not having a baby either.

Hope the rest of your summer is easing up!!!
@ limpy… Sugar, I am soooo glad to see you haven’t lost your way with words! You’re like a breath of fresh air to me.
@ One Tough Momma.. Thank you! LOL.. And girl repeat after me… NO!!!
@ JJ.. I love the new name which I guess isn’t so new anymore huh? LOL.. thank you so much for you kind words and for telling me about your move. I wouldn’t have known where to find you had you not. (btw.. I updated your link in my sidebar too)
well, look who’s back on the block! i had just found your site before you went into hiding. i was a lurker and now you’ve brought me out in the open. i feel so exposed. i am having a baby too….well, my son and his wife are. it’s a boy and i’m gonna be a grandma for the second time. yipee! welcome back!
Welcome back GL!! So sorry to hear about your grandmother. So sad.
Sounds like you’ve been very busy. But I’m glad to see you’re alive and healthy!
Thanks… we are super excited.
oh and FYI there is a funny link down at the bottom in the google ads…
“Affairs Made Simple. Married Men & Women Seeking affairs discreet online forum. Free sign up.”
LOL Groovy lady what are you trying to promote here…lol
@ Annie… Thanks and I’m sorry for the abrupt departure, lol.. I’ve never been known for my “good timing”.
Congratulations to you one the impending grandparenthood! All this baby talk is making me want one too!
@ Dan.. Thank you! You’re right, life has certainly been busy and this week my little girl turns 7 (birthday is tomorrow) and school starts on Thursday.. agghh. Hopefully after that my otherwise boring life will be back to it’s normal boring state.
@ Snowman.. You are very welcome, I hope you have a wonderful pregnancy.. I loved being pregnant personally, well expect those first 6 weeks or so when I was gagging and throwing up nonstop.. other than that it rocked! LOL
About that ad, lol.. I don’t have that one (more’s the pity). If you see it again click on it and send me the link.. I could use it, hahaha.
She called me “sugar”!
-blushes-
I cannot express in words, how much we missed you. If you could see me now, you could see that I was crying and wiping my eyes with my little paws while trying to type this message. I am SO GLAD you are back.
.
I heard you were back! You were missed!
Is it a requirement here that I say I’m not having a baby?
Oh, there you are. We wondered. Glad to see you.
How did you get rid of him?
Sorry about the rest.
Be sure to start putting money away to buy that new clutch. (it will burn out, either from him not knowing how to shift or learning and enjoying it too much)
I am so sorry about your grandmother.
I am glad to see you back though! I’ve checked here often and was so happy to see a recent post.
Try not to stay away so long, ok?
Michelle is alive and well with a new private blog. I’ll let her know you are looking for her.
Darlin’!!!
I hear you’re looking for me
Dave came and told me… Thanks by the way, Dave.
SO…lots has happened to both of us this summer.
I can’t wait to read you!!
I am sorry to hear about your grandmother.
I hope you are okay.
And…do come by the new URL (same blog, different website).
Oh, and hon… we’re newlyweds, so bring a gift eh? LOL.
I just listened to “Our Song”… it’s totally sweet.
Why do you gotta go and give a woman goosebumps like that?!
(Hugs and thank you)
*Mwah*
THANK GOD YOU ARE BACK….jeesh…don’t ever do that again! ;-P
glad to see you back.
*hugs*
HOLY SHIT!!!!!!! IT’S ALIVE!!!!!
Welcome back… we both took a little ‘break’ on exactly the same day. Funny how that works.
I hope I wasn’t the one that was stalking you.
Thank you very much for the song. Next time I get home, I am going to corner wifey and play it for her. That was very thoughtful.
You were truly missed.
Yay! I had stopped coming here after days and days of hoping you’d write again, but seeing nothing. (And just now realized I could have subscribed to your blog, silly me!)
I am glad you are back!
I am also sorry to hear about your grandmother. Congrats on your son getting his license!
Next time you disappear like that, say something on your blog at least - we were all worried about you!
Hey Groovy Lady,
You crept back in without me even noticing!!
I’ve missed you and this blog a whole, whole bunch!
Now I can destress myself again by reading.
I’m glad you are OK.
And so sorry about your Grandmother.
Ohh…congrats to Michelle and Ryan whoever you are!
Thank goodness! I was in danger of getting addicted to goobers myself! I don’t want any more babies but I might consider a toy boy:)
are you back?
Good lord! Whole month and some passed before I even noticed you posted, woman! Shoosh!
Thank you for posting and summing up your crazy life in 2 paragraphs..lol
Can I tempt you to post 5 things we don’t know about you in reference to http://www.freelancemom.com/network/ ? Pfft…like there’s something we don’t already know about you! LOL!
sorry everyone i posted in the wrong area
Tysgirl is looking for you….I think she wants to tell you something. Her comments on this post are a tad ironic
Hope all is well with you. Seriously, if you’re having issues with that asshat who stalked you, the Freaktard and I will come out. He really hates people. Especially assholes.
Hi hon,
I thought I’d tell you that I’ve moved sites (again) in case you’ll ever come around again…
Michelle aka Mermaid.
good . that is the michelle problem solved, but you still seem to be on the hop. LOL. Hope you are ok.
That stalker mess is scary! Hope it is all resolved.
I would love to hear more about how you dealt with a cyber stalker. Please don’t let a bad experience move you to abandon your blog!
Jan
Happy Holidays wherevewr you are
and…HAPPY NEW YEAR!
