I'll pick myself up and try again

It's true, I just stopped writing for nine months! I can't even say that I was pregnant, it would have been wonderful to have something to show after all this time. The only thing I have to show is a hurt ego. I thought it would be easy to start a blog. I like reading other people's blogs, surely it would be easy to start my own ...... Then I woke up from my dream.

I would love it if the words could just flow from my fingers. Unfortunately, everything has to be connected to my brain. Sometimes I would write something over and over, just because it didn't sound right. Yes, I have a little OCD - how did you guess?

The last time I wrote something, my kids were just starting the new school year. The year is just about finished now. My youngest is on his way to high school, that brings along a whole new set of  rules and changes in all my perfect planning!

One of the best things this year was going to New York to visit my daughter. She went over on 1 December 2013 and at the end of June this year I got the chance to visit her. What an adventure - mom and daughter alone in the Big Apple!

Everyone warned me about the heat that time of year. Boy it was hot, I really wasn't prepared for that. I thought I was going to melt. Even with all the heat, the sore feet, the running for trains on the subway (why is everyone in such a hurry?) and the incredible exhaustion, it was so worth it.

Now it's back to reality. I'm really going to try my best, I will get my blog going. I really enjoy writing everything down and then reading it at a later stage and seeing how things have changed in the end.

I will go into more detail about New York, the flight over, the crying and the laughing! Thank you for reading my blog and taking the journey with me :-)
