Well, it's been almost three months since I've written anything here. I think that is a clear sign that it is time for me to hang a "Closed Until Further Notice" sign up.
I WANT to write but there is just too much going on.
I will tell you that my experiment in self-binding (see last post) was successful. I finished my master's project and now have a M.S. in Education, Reading. I am also teaching four classes this spring--two at the community college and two at the state university. With that load, I seriously doubt I will have time to write here.
You can find me on Twitter (www.twitter.com/MaryLUE). I have a protected account, so you will have to ask me to approve you. I am also blogging every other Monday at Sleeping with Bread, my blog for doing a form of the Examen.
It's been great, but sometimes you have to take a break from writing about Life, the Universe, and Everything to experience Life, the Universe, and Everything.
Until some unknown time in the future. . .

Congrats on being finished, and the teaching gigs.
Hope to see you at the book club!
I'm sure every single one of us that reads this can relate to feeling overwhelmed at some point, and if that means not writing here for a while, so be it. Do what you have to do and we'll be here, waiting for posts in the future when you come back. Congratulations on your M.S. and good luck with the classes you're teaching. :)

Peace on your journey......
Sad to see you go (for an indeterminate time). But I totally understand. Making it official takes the pressure off. ~smile~
Aw, Mary. I'll miss you.

HI Sweet Mary! I am officially your follower now. Hello Blog world! I never knew how to make comments on people's blogs before, but now that I am an official blog member, I figured it out!
Love you lady!
We're also a little overwhelmed by real life. Let me know when you start up again.
Hi Mary. It is true that sometimes we have to take a break from blogging about life, to experience life. My blog depends on us continuing to travel! I guess I need to tell Tyrone we have to travel more for my blog! Actually though, I have a lot of videos to still post from the past! I have to take a break from blogging to catch up on editing all of my video blogs! hope you are well.
