Well, I think it's quite obvious, three months later. . . . I blog no more. I never even started the so-called "private blog" back when I meant to escape an unfriendly. I didn't have the "ooomph".
I started blogging back in 2004 or 2005, I can't quite remember. I did it initially to stay in touch with my family in the great white north & my friends who swelter south of the Mason Dixon Line. I never thought I'd make and meet the friends that I did throughout my time at Texaconsin Diva. It's been lovely. And fun. But somehow and someway I got fulfilled from something in someway. I love to write, badly as it may be, but I also love to share, even if it was too much at times. I also started to write not for me, but for my readers, which is not to say a bad thing. It's just that I wanted to quit long ago, but didn't want to let anyone down. No, no, your life certainly doesn't revolve around me and mine. I get that. I just felt obligated to keep on keeping on. Then I stopped. Suddenly. And out of the blue, when I checked my blog 3 months later & still had nothing to share or write, I knew it was time to leave "Tales of a Texaconsin Diva" behind.
Besides, most of my extra time is spent in marathon training. Yep. I'm at it again. One more for the road. For some reaon, which is only known to the Gods that Be, I just can't quit running like a girl. . . . .
A great shout-out of thanks to those of you who came, read, supported and even felt compelled to comment every now and again. I've run my course here in this great blog-o-sphere of ours. I have enjoyed our time. But it is also time for me to fly. For some reason though, I'm still not able to fully close the door. You never know, I might just be back. . . . .
With that, I bid you adieu.

Sorry to hear you're not blogging anymore - but not too sad because we'll still get your news through that other web site thing. And one day, we may even meet in real life.
Adieu, lovely!! I know the feeling, wrestling with it myself. If you're ever on That Other Site look me up, happy to reveal to you my 'other' identity if you want another Online Friend. xxx
Yeah. There's a story here that I don't have enough of, but suggesting you write a blog entry about the whole 'unfriendly' thing might be counter-productive. Anyway, it's not like you're gone away, you're still here, but in different, shorter, but, if anything, more regular, forms. It's a fair trade.
I have been wondering about you, hoping you're doing alright! Sad to see you go, but totally understand it. Hope to hear from you, at least once in a while!!
Oh Good Grief you're giving it up too? Why? Why are all my favourite bloggers suddenly abandoning me like this?
I think that at some point priorities shift and blogging is almost always the first thing to slide down the list. Sorry you've decided to hang it up. Hope you wander by every once in a while. ;-)
Honey, I'm right there with you... as you know. It was fun while it lasted, but life has lead us in different paths of communication.
xo
I'm glad to have met ya, and good luck on your training. I'd hope that you will pop in to other blogs a leave a comment once in a while (or facebook).
Be well.
