Oh boy, it's been a very long time since I posted anything. So long, in fact, that I barely remember how to do it. I'm pretty sure I should have a header here, and I should have something at the bottom with my picture and bio... but the idea of finding those things totally overwhelms me.
In fact, that is my big problem: I'm overwhelmed. Due to a series of unfortunate events (some that were my fault and some that just happened) my life is a bit messy right now. Which is why I barely got this scheduled post up, and why it's pretty bare-boned. But I'm doing my best to muddle through.
Sometimes, that's really all we can do. When life is hard, and it feels like even the simplest things are insurmountable, sometimes all you can do is take a breath... take one step forward, no matter how halting or tentative. And eventually, the steps will be easier, they will come closer together, and that limping, jerking movement will become a confident, albeit slow, walk forward to something new and better.

How Our Giveaways Work: The Official Rules
We, the ladies of Inkwell Inspirations, would love to give free stuff to everybody. Since we can't, we will often have a giveaway in conjunction with a specific post. Unless otherwise stated, one winner will be drawn from comments left on that post between the date it was published and the end of the giveaway as determined in the post. Entries must be accompanied by a valid email address. This address is used only to contact the commenter in the event that he/she is the winner, and will not be sold, distributed, or used in any other fashion. The odds of winning depend on the number of entrants. NO PURCHASE, PLEDGE, OR DONATION NECESSARY TO ENTER OR TO WIN. ALL FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND MUNICIPAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS APPLY. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.
Hi Jen! Glad to see you in the "Posting Chair" (or whatever we call it). I can totally relate to your post--sometimes showing up and taking a wobbly step is all we can handle. But it's a start--in writing and in life.
ReplyDeleteSending hugs and a virtual red velvet cupcake.
Jen! YAY!
ReplyDeleteIt's all about baby steps. And just when you think you're running full speed, something happens and you have to go back to baby steps. Maybe it helps keep us childlike... :) Glad you're back.
Don't stress. We've all been there. :::hugs:::
ReplyDeleteHi Jen! I'm so glad to "see" you! Baby steps. I tell myself that frequently. And I totally agree, eventually they lead us forward.
