Three Years

Dear Friends,
This afternoon, out of the blue, it dawned on me that today marks three years since my very first blog post.

When I realized this, I decided that I just had to write you all a letter. Lately I have been seriously absent from blogging. I haven't had time to put up posts on my own blog and I haven't been able to visit all of the beautiful and creative blogs out there that inspire and energize me! A few months ago several events happened, one right after the other. These incidents changed the circumstances of my life, leaving me with a number of new responsibilities.

I'm still trying to learn to juggle these new things. And I'm obviously not very good at it yet. Lately this little blog has been lost in the shuffle of those other obligations.

Oddly, my blog seems to have a life of its own. It continues to have visitors, google hits, and some dear returning friends and readers, even when it lacks my own attention.I want to thank all of you for being so patient with me! Thank you for continuing to check in once in a while to see if I've posted something new, thank you for looking at old posts, and thank you for thinking of homegrown countrygirl once in a while... this means so much to me!

I'm going to try to put up new posts more regularly... but even as I write this I know that I will occasionally be tardy. So I'm just going to appologize in advance. It will probably take some time for me to get the hang of how to juggle everything.

Thank you so very much for visiting!

love, homegrown countrygirl
