All Apologies

My friends I am so sorry for not coming to say hello and read your words which always amaze me ... each of you have such talent.

July was another bad month ... My cousin died , then on top of this , as if my aunt did  not have enough to bear having lost two children before the third, her husband died - it was so heartbreaking- a 'double funeral'. She is still standing, somehow... July is a cruel month for me in so many ways.

My Donovan is now in kindergarten- it is so unreal! He loves school so far and is being tested for gifted and talented classes... his dad is making a huge thing of it because his girlfriend's son is in GATE - I told Donovan whether he was in this program or not he is gifted and talented - I do not want him to feel inadeqate or 'dumb' as he is neither.
Oh, and Dono will be a big brother in a few months, his dad and his lady are expecting.

All Summer I have been stressed and s tired, feeling a little sickish .. so please do not give up on me and do not think I am not interested in reading your writings and stopping to say hello... Universally speaking, I love you one and all and think of you each -
As for writing I have lost inspiration but just for now ... I missed you guys!

Stay safe, the weather is crazy all over... floods, fires, tornadoes, hurricanes and
everything in between... Peace and love to all .

Hi chloe, I was wondering what was happening with you. My deepest condolences to your Aunt and yourself in your family loss, to contemplate her and your suffering, is unbearable for me. Take strength in each other.

Brilliant news re Donovan! He is bound to be a talented child, having you as his mum. Can I ask, is it you who is his fathers lady then? If you are, that will account for your tiredness etc etc. Can you clarify please?

Not to worry about your inspiration, it will return, but right now you sound like you are pretty busy.

Big smile and hug from

Tai, all the way over the pond xx

I know each and every feeling you've described here...including death, for my friend died recently...still can't believe it's real... I have a gifted son as well, as difficult as that is to believe...but he's graduating this May, and need to know just how to say good-bye.... Damn, I'll never master that one... Stressed, tired, overworked single mom.... Chloe, please take care of yourself.... You know destiny cannot be altered, right? Blessings....

Hang in there Sweet Friend.....sounds so glib, but comes from a heart that truly cares about you! Life is difficult, and at times may become so overwhelming that we just want to get under the covers and hide forever!
Please know you are missed, and just take care of yourself!
We will be waiting for you to return!!
Hugs....lots of them!

No apologizes needed... Life happens. I am sorry for your loss and pains. We could not forget such a divine lady like you.
