blogging break

(our beautifully frosted windshield early one morning)

It looks like these last couple of weeks I've taken an unintentional blogging break. Usually I get super anxious if I don't have something current up here - but lately I've laked a bit of the motivation and energy (maybe a mix of January blues, sickness, and being alone). Plus! Paul was in Guyana with the camera, and honestly not that much was going on here in his absense.

Writing and photos are something I really love, so this blog is really about giving me an outlet to use those mediums. Sometimes it feels like I'm just trying to catch up, and that's not what I want this to be. I guess I need to refocus my efforts here and blog for me and my memory more than for anyone else.

At the same time, I always appreciate great comments here and in person letting me know that people like seeing what we are up to - and being across the country from so much of our family and friends, it really is meaningful to me to still be sorta involved with those people. (And I love hearing the other side too! So, hey family and friends! Remember to update me on your lives too!)

So I guess what I'm saying here is sorry for the lack of posts, I'll get back to it as soon as I find my stride again. Look forward to some of Paul's amazing Guyana pictures and video. That boy is an adventurer.

PS I'm being a pretty consistant Instagram poster lately, if for some reason you are missing frequent updates of my life, you can find me there at christinecfrandsen.

2 REASONS FOR ME TO BLOG AGAIN:

Hi My name is Jodie and I saw in a post that your little boy had Infantile Fibrosarcoma. I to am the Mom of an IF child and would love to get to know you. I have met 7 other families with a child with the same rare Cancer so we are a pretty small group. Please get back to me at jml21178@gmail.com

Christine, I'm so sorry to hear about your son's cancer! (...?)
But you worded my thoughts perfectly! I always feel like I'm just trying to catch up, too--and that's not what I want my blog to be either! Yes, I want to document my life. But I don't want to feel rushed about it.
And it's always nice to get great comments and hear that people enjoy seeing what you've been up to. Thanks for wording that so great. Seriously. Win.
