I know I did. And I appreciate your very thoughtful post. So many shout that blogging is no longer "the" way, that IG and FB and others are quicker and easier. I for one value having a place to share the stories and thoughts behind what we share and not just a single photo in isolation or a random phrase that could be read nine different ways. I am so grateful I found your blog many years ago and while we've yet to meet in person, I consider you a dear and trusted friend. Thank you for sharing yourself with us!Quiltdivajuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15593385265961892847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-92067881519991101092016-03-02T01:51:21.553-05:002016-03-02T01:51:21.553-05:00I've loved your writing since I found your blo...I've loved your writing since I found your blog--and you were one of my early supporters. I didn't realize you did most of your blogging at work! My theory about jobs is that boring jobs are the hardest--and certainly not having enough to do is boring. Glad you have found a much richer and fuller life elsewhere. More than pleased as punch that your blog will continue!

I'm also glad that your real life jobs have turned into something so meaningful and fulfilling. I've been following you for over 8 years now, maybe even longer than that.

Sometimes we enter the rewrite kicking and screaming, but it all works out.

I really see the value in a chronicle of your comings and goings -- and your trips have been so fun to read. I think I found you through Finn several years ago and was interested because of your quilting, but life as it happens is interesting as well. I'll be reading when you have the time to write.

Leaving from a job that pays well, that I've been good at for 26 years. And the school is a good place, just as you say. Maybe not such a good place for me anymore. I am hoping to be led to something just as fulfilling...

We each have our own reasons for blogging, and whatever yours may be, I have enjoyed following your journey. I recall the job transition and the upheaval it created in your life. I am glad you have found a happy place.<br />My infrequency of blog posts myself (65 my peak year) makes me less aware when someone else has slowed down, but it doesn't mean I don't value what you have to share!Janet O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05083607398709252597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-63062406038576264972016-02-29T16:58:20.646-05:002016-02-29T16:58:20.646-05:00Quality, not quantity.
