You may have noticed that things have been a little quiet around here for the past few months. After years of posting three times a week, this slid down to two, then eventually to one or even less. Like many (most?) people, 2020 was a very strange year for me, and living through a pandemic definitely affected my creativity and engagement with a number of aspects of life, including this blog.
Additionally, I had another, much more positive distraction, as I got pregnant last summer! My baby was born at the beginning of March, and is a healthy, adorable, very distracting new part of my life.
All pregnancy, I hoped I might find the time and the energy to come back to more regular blogging. Now that I have a newborn, I’m accepting the inevitable. I’m not closing down this blog, and I still intend to be here more regularly some time in the future – but I am stepping away officially for the next while as I adjust to the new normal in my life.
Thank you for ALL the wonderful support over the past ten years, and I expect to be “seeing” you again soon – perhaps with some new ideas and new features, as I create a new normal for Tales of the Marvelous too! ❤
Wow! How wonderful – I hope 🙂 I think babies are naturally 24/7 occupations, but if you find a quick half hour, that you haven’t 17 million other things to fill it with, we’d love to hear from you.
Hope all goes well for you and the little one.
Congratulations on this new chapter in your life. It can seem long in the day-to-day, but it also goes by incredibly fast as you look back on it. I’m sure you will find ways to express your creativity as your baby gets older. 😊
