This Week's Question Is:
THE QUESTION THIS WEEK IS: WHAT ARE YOU MOST THANKFUL FOR (IN THE BLOGGING COMMUNITY)?
I'm most thankful for the strong welcome back after my two year hiatus. December 7th 2014 my mom died very suddenly and I gave up on the blog. I couldn't read, I couldn't write and I wanted to delete Turning the Pages but I didn't. I did try to come back a couple times, but I wasn't ready and I only managed to post a few times but then I'd just stop. When I logged on to the blog on a whim on November 9th something just felt right. I was ready to come back and get blogging again. I didn't think about it I just did it. I like to think my mum gave me a push to start again, almost as if she thought I'd wallowed long enough and had to get living again. I love how loving this community is and how much support and awesome messages welcoming me back I've gotten. I feel thankful for you my wonderful readers, authors and fellow bloggers because you made me feel like I came home when I started back up again and I want to say thank you.
I am sorry for your loss but as long as there are people you love around you, you van move on. Happy Thanksgiving! Old follower.
