and I do apologize for that. The past couple of weeks have been a doozy, but more so, this past week.
I’ve been stressed out by, what I call, a “Family” emergency. My dog, who some of you know, managed to swallow part of a fleece toy. I’ve been on poop and vomit patrol all week; constant phone calls to the vet, and including a visit.
I’ve been super stressed. Some of you know, I don’t have children. My dog is my child. Yes, I’m one of those crazy people. But I’m proud of that.
Life Got In The Way and I basically, abandoned My Girly Parts.
Now that it appears, the “emergency” has passed, literally via vomit, it looks like we are out of the woods and Life can resume back to my humble normalcy.
I did try to stay in touch via my Facebook page so if you haven’t LIKED it yet, you can know. My Girly Parts on Facebook . I also share some important discounts and other girly type news on there so you might want to check it out.
So now I ask you……
How do you handle your blog when something “out of the norm” happens in your life?
Do you just kind of abandoned it, like I did?
About Bren
So glad the issue got resolved, Bren. You must be SO relieved! Dogs have been my only kids too; so I’m another proud, crazy one.
Life gets in the way for all of us at one time or another. If I know there won’t be any time for the blog, then I will make a post to that effect; with sincere apologies and a promise to return soon. Did that last summer, but, that was before I really got into blogging in a big way. I suppose, there is a risk of losing some followers, but, first things first, yes? The loyal ones will always come back.
Thanks Debbie! You know what a relief this is not only for me, but Titan, my hubs, and my readers!
You’re right, things happen so fast at times, we don’t have time to think of our blogs. We’re thinking about the crisis at hand. I didn’t like neglecting this blog but I was so superfocused on P&M and the support I was getting from all our friends. It really meant a lot!
Glad everything is better. Life is more important than blogging and I think a lot of people forget that including myself sometimes.

Thanks Kita! Everyone’s support and understanding is greatly appreciated!
Life happens. If time allowed, a quick shout-out to say “I’m dealing with a family emergency, and will return soon” is fine, but not necessary.
I don’t think you have a set editorial calendar, which gives you even more leeway.
So glad Titan is feeling better. xoxo

Thanks Ellen! True, I know it’s not necessary but I guess I just assumed most people followed my other blog and knew what was up. Sheesh, hard keeping up with two blogs, two fb pages, and two twitters. Eeek! I’m glad he’s better now too! Now I can get back to normalcy
Hi Bren,
I hope that your dog is feeling better. I am sure that was very stressful. I’ve had a lot going on as well and have been less than perfect with getting my post out. I actually have a couple of people who write on my site so that normally helps except I have picture patrol.
Glad you are back!

I hope you you’re getting it all figured out on your end gf. Are you back in the states yet? Oh yeah, having Contributors or Authors definitely helps out in times of need.
Hang in there luv.
