Polimom’s received a number of emails over the last week or two, wondering if I’m okay, or why I don’t write more.
I’m embarrassed to admit that these friendly, and often flattering, notes have languished in my inbox… because I’m not, actually, okay.
I haven’t been able to come up with a way to explain what’s going on yet, but I’ve started taking some steps to “fix” things nonetheless.
The first of these is here.

Ahhh… Saturday morning. We have blue skies for a change, and the standing water in the backyard seems to have finally been absorbed by the hard clay just beneath the lightly tethered grass. (It’s beyond me how anything can grow …

My dear, I so understand. My daughter and my 6 yr old grandson moved in with us almost a month ago, and as you’ve probably seen, I haven’t written anything, although I have notes piled up over the monitor with things I want to write. I just can’t find the time between registering him for school, and responding to “Boba, look at what I can do!” It’s been a very difficult time here too, but I’m not giving up yet. I think, that although I loved Polimom, Too, that sometimes something has to give before your sanity does.
I’m trying to find that balance now.
I’m hoping you are doing better than I am with the “what’s wrong with me that I can’t balance it all” thing! Finding out at this late date that I’m not superwoman has been an eye opener!
I certainly understand your predicament, and you have my sympathy. I too have experienced this feeling, and have discovered that the care and feeding of a blog sometimes requires more than I am able to give.

Do you think that part of your “dry spell” had to do with the distinctly nasty turn some of the comments over at PM2 were taking? I am somewhat surprised that RWS is holding up as well as she appears to be — I am not sure I would last too long in that pressure-cooker myself!
