I'm sorry..and I get it.<br />It is not for me to say, but rather than pulling the entire plug, you might let your blog sit and rest. I have. They don't spoil or "go bad". They have a way of just waiting for you until you're ready. I've gone many months just posting a scavenger hunt on Sunday and letting that be. Just recently I've been nudging myself back into it a little more. And yes, my blog has sat right here waiting for me.<br />You upcoming travels sound marvelous and I hope they will uplift you to a better place.<br />Happy holidays. Maybe I'll see you around.Simon https://www.blogger.com/profile/03844538179633976411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8652000138331690507.post-78541661690448197702012-12-22T20:45:42.866-05:002012-12-22T20:45:42.866-05:00Sorry to see you are stopping your blog, Linda.

Also best wishes to you and Dan, may your lives be happy and filled with people you love. This post that concerns your blogging and battling depression, you could have written for me. When you and Dan come back to Missouri and if you have time we would love to see you. Take care. I am so glad to have "met" you and may you and your family have a Merry Christmas and Happy and Healthy New Year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8652000138331690507.post-33089761021219795402012-12-22T17:29:03.298-05:002012-12-22T17:29:03.298-05:00All the best.

In light of what you have written though I can fully understand your decision. Maybe rather than quitting altogether, just shelving the blog for awhile might be an option. When in Ireland and Thailand you might feel the urge to display the wonders you find there. You could do so with no real routine just when it strikes you and not make blogging such as a job but more like a fun excursion every now and then. I for sure, and I suspect many others would enjoy seeing what you see in those countries for I will never be able to go there myself. Best wishes to you Linda in whatever road you take.John @ Beans and I on the Loosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09185975793295220723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8652000138331690507.post-2632584725094089632012-12-22T08:48:15.965-05:002012-12-22T08:48:15.965-05:00Sorry to hear your shutting down your blog Linda. ...Sorry to hear your shutting down your blog Linda.
