It's like life is this big, complicated, complex ordeal day in and day out ... and we keep dreaming up dreams about how we're going to make things better by changing this job, and making this move, and staying home, etc. etc....only come to find out that THAT new idea just has it's own set of challenges and issues! I SO get it ... but I'm cheering for you and hope that you will keep writing as you make your moves and try your new things. Because you certainly aren't alone in the way you feel ... and it's comforting in a totally random way to know that some total stranger in WI "gets" me : )Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18127200050091648905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8197179663823770853.post-31591349151016042142010-02-16T22:20:52.944-06:002010-02-16T22:20:52.944-06:00Colleen,

You, my friend, are far more famous!!! :)<br /><br />At any rate, I can relate to ur post on so many levels. It's sort of like you can't sort out the grass is greener scenario when you've been on both sides of the yard. And I think when you have the "best of both worlds" as imperfect humans, we can't help but question.<br /><br />As for the feelings of lonliness, I feel for you. I spent 10 months of Leo back and forth and it broke my heart. Not for me so much, but for my kids. I hated watching them say goodbye to him and not be able to tell them when we'd be living under one roof again.<br /><br />I got to TN and I gave up all my friends, moved further from family, moved to a town where judgements had been made because I grew up North of the Mason-Dixon. It was rough. I never felt so alone, even though we were all together again. I didn't want to blog. I wanted my old life back. I was downright depressed.<br /><br />But it is getting better -- and you will adjust and once the weather breaks it'll get better too. May be plan to meet a friend during the week with the kiddos for dinner to break up the monotony. <br /><br />And to me, you have been a bright spot. I love and adore your humor and am glad through this crazy thing called blogging our paths crossed. So, whether or not you choose to carry on (which I hope you do!) I'll still keep checking up on you!!!! :)<br /><br />Hugs!Kim H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12684666350821801488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8197179663823770853.post-69695828594650998122010-02-16T10:29:09.277-06:002010-02-16T10:29:09.277-06:001.

When it stops being those things - maybe it's time to start a new blog that no one you know, in REal Life, knows about - so you can get back to being able to 'get it off your chest'.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13024392628362568010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8197179663823770853.post-57018712621266877672010-02-16T04:26:32.692-06:002010-02-16T04:26:32.692-06:00blogging is supposed to be fun.

Except for the fact that the rest of the family forgets that you are actually working, or supposed to be. :-)<br /><br />Glad to hear that you and the family are doing okay, and I look forward to when you get that "I love to write" feeling back again.<br /><br />Until then, enjoy wearing the jammies and playing with the boys. :-)Roger Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01831602215904873587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8197179663823770853.post-19504011813290898312010-02-15T19:50:22.550-06:002010-02-15T19:50:22.550-06:00I'm with Tara.

There are days that go by without my ever leaving our house, or speaking to another adult other than my hubs.
