Greetings old and new friends

I am sure the old friends are a bit befuddled by my sudden disapearance yesterday.

After upsetting my husband twice over posts that I thought were perfectdly innocent I decided that while I have LOVED my blog, my relationship with him was more important.

So I deleted it. The whole thing.

I thought I would be REALLY upset over it..but strangely I am not. I am sad about it, but also know it was the right decision. I need to focus on my real life too.

However, be dammed if I am going to abandon the blog world all together. I am having too much fun and have made too many friends, who I hope to find again..or that they find ME again!

So I am going to scale back on the family stuff. There are lots of other things about ME that I can explore.

Two things that are really important to me is SQT's Fantasy & Sci-Fi Lovin Blog and Stewart Sternberg's House of Sternberg.

The first because I LOVE talking sci fi and fantasy with such a fun crew.

The second because Mr. Sternberg has given me the encouragement and permission to take his fun 'Writing Assignments' to hone our literary skills. I have done two of them and thoroughly enjoyed the process and the discussion that surrounds everyone's contributions.

This is good for me. I will post the two short stories I have already done when I dig em up from Word.

I have not given up the personal or 'mommy' blog. In fact I am working on and hopefully launching very soon Wet Coast Woman . This is going to hopefully be a meeting place for all the women bloggers lurking on BC's WestCoast.....you know who you are! So stay tuned.

So this new incarnation.....new for the NEW YEAR and all that.....will be a bit more esoteric. I think I am going to try and cover more issues and ideas, opinions and so forth.

I think I will still do the 'Inside the Brain of Adam'....people get a kick out of it and it cracks me up too.

I do hope this doesn't upset people.

I apologize to all the people who have linked to me.
I apologize to all the people that I have advertising 'deals' set up with.

I am sorry for the abruptness of it all.

I am sure people feel that I could have just 'edited'...but it just felt right for me to just sweep the old away.

I lay awake for hours last night thinking about this and realizing that it was the right thing to do and that I felt ok about it.

So. On with the new.

Happy New Year.
