Self-Fulfilling Prophecy?

It's time to stop writing this blog.

I started it just over a year ago, and with the "blogiversary" a couple of weeks back, I'd hoped to end this one by launching my NEW blog, which I'm working on still. In the meantime, however, I was diagnosed with this autoimmune anemia, have turned a pronounced shade of yellow, and been put on medication that makes me feel, well, "unglued".

As I'm not feeling well enough to work in the studio, and would rather not bore you all with my medical details, I am officially putting an end to this particular blog, as of this week. If you'd like to find the new blog, check back here in a couple of weeks. I'll leave a "stub post" with a link to the new url.

Or, you can add your name to my mailing list. Most of you are on my mailing list already, and will receive an email when the new blog is up and running, like me. I hope it's soon.

Thanks so much for reading this blog. I've loved writing it, and really appreciated having your support. I'll be back soon...

In the meantime, I'm working on the name for my new blog... something more upbeat this time?

I'm glad it's only temporary, I LOVE this blog!
Maybe we can start an insomniac's club??

Thanks, Z.
I WILL be back.
Did you mean like an Insomniacs Blog? We can all be up posting like crazy at 3 am. I know a few people who would be up for that!

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear about your anemia/insomnia/jaundice/general health slump, Melissa.

Get lots of rest and don't push yourself too hard with setting up your new site... I'll come find you whenever it's ready... ;)

Thanks for checking in, Carrie!
I'm not pushing myself at all, at this point, except to nap. I'll get to the new blog when I can...
(I never did decide about Wordpress vs. Blogger!)

Yes, thanks; doing much better now!
No new blog in sight, but when I get back to work, I'm sure it will evolve out of that...
