Crickets and Butterflies

I'm still alive.

I know most of you are worried about me - why I kept to myself for a month without notice, why I haven't answered your e-mails and comments, why I haven't visited your blogs and left comments as I used to. Be rest assured, though, that I am well and happy.

I'm currently nursing a cold though. But, other than that, I am doing great!

The break was something I didn't plan but I'm glad that I took it, nonetheless. It was a rather selfish thing to do - indulging myself, lazying around the house, living on take-outs, deliberately keeping away from social encounters, not keeping in touch with people, etc. - but I sort of needed it. I spent time with myself doing things I like and I felt like I know myself better. I haven't done anything like it until recently and I will be lying when I say that I didn't enjoy it because I enjoyed it immensely - much more than I should.

Ah!

So yeah, I'm back. Sort of. :)

I'm all for shutting off for the sake of mental health. :) I'm glad you're back. We missed you!

oh, i know how you feel. sometimes one can't help but isolate thy self for the sake of sanity. i'm glad you're back and it was all worth it, right?

i agree with you. solitude nourishes the soul and we need quiet times to hear our selves think. i'm so glad you're back gracey! it's not the same without you here.

Welcome back, Gracey!
I've missed the occasional updates on your blog, but I hear you, I, myself is in need of some quiet time too. I think we all do, once in a while.

Oh, I'm thinking this "break" sounds like a great idea as well - I'm really needing to get away.... I'm glad you had a nice time, relaxing and re-grouping! I sure missed your cute posts!
