this is what i need. though on july 31, 2009, i promised to commit myself to 365 days of sunshine on this little blog of mine, i have realized that this is a bit too difficult at present. why?, you ask.

just as i have had to part with most everything else in my life, i am in need of a rest. a break from blogging, if you will. especially in this season of gratitude, i know the importance of being grateful. and i will not rest from my gratitude; do not fret. i may just be a bit less descriptive, a bit more private about my gratitude as i try and sort out my life.

my apologies.

i hope you're having the loveliest of sundays. i am going to try to enjoy mine here in sunny arizona, that's for sure.
