My poor ignored blog
I do sometimes feel that I should just gracefully retire this thing, and have done with it. I don’t post even a quarter as much as I used to, and most of the interaction that my friends and I had on blogs has been replaced by twitter – and this speed of response has enriched my life immensely. Plus I’ve made some new friends that way.
But, my blog is here. I’m here. It’s a useful venting tool, and, occasionally, I have some knitting to share. More often that not, though, that’s on ravelry…
It’s cold, winter seems to have no end in sight (I remember the last time it snowed on my birthday, it was about 20 years ago), I’m stressed and busy, and I feel like I cannot keep up, that I have perpetually forgotten something. I inadvertently offended someone at morris, who upset me immensely by their vehement, out of character, response. That upset that I left practice early.
I will be glad when Jo’s wedding is done – I’m now singing the responsorial psalm and the gospel response. In addition to everything else. I need to head over to my parents’ soon, there to spend time on the laptop pulling bits of Guidemin and Receptionmin together (please, please, God, let the blinking badge we’ve had made for the reception cabaret turn up in time). I’ve got stuck sitting here, writing nothing of any import, and, goodness, I need a bit more sleep. This won’t happen at my parents: Mum’s hearing is almost entirely kaput, and she likes the telly up loud in the room next to my bedroom. It’s almost easier to fall asleep on the tiny sofa in the sitting room.
Meanwhile, have an article from the Daily Wail about how to get rid of ear worms. It’s the best I can manage right.

Good Morning, Holly from across the Pond and hope you have a smashing weekend. Sorry you are down about your blog.
I read your profile and you are a very interesting person–never head of your religion. lol
Have a nice weekend and then tell us about it.
You are not a dizzy blond as you say in your Profile. You are obviously a very caring person.

Knitting photos ftw!
I would be interested in syncing up with you on twitter, especially if you decide to blog less or close this down.
I enjoy reading your blog though even if you don’t find yourself writing every day in it.
@redsangria - I’m hollyberry79 over there…
I can’t blog much less than I am already! I’m lucky, I feel, if I manage one weekend in two. Life is just too hairbrained, and, after I’ve stared at a computer all day, I have little desire to stare at it in the evening too.
You’re one of the few that I still enjoy coming back to Xanga and reading through, as most others I have on Facebook and/or Twitter. So keep blogging away, as sporadic as it may be. At least it’s much more often than me.
