welcome back?

So, I haven’t been around in a long time. I do intend on coming back though, really. Life has been very rough lately though and I’m hoping to eventually get back into things.

For those of you who don’t know, my dad passed away in July at 61 years old. He was battling lung and brain cancer for the past year. I was thinking that I’d maybe do some kind of tribute post as my first post coming back, since I have lots of great pictures to share, but I don’t have it in me right now, maybe later.

It’s been a pretty rough few months since then. I lost my mom eight years ago, when I was 20, so it was kind of double-hard, if that makes any sense.

A few weeks before my dad died, my husband’s uncle died from cancer as well. I only met him a few times, but I really liked him a lot. And then last week, a friend of mine was killed in a car accident coming home from a pro-life conference in Georgia. She was newly married and 5 months pregnant with baby Sophy.

The passenger in the car with Kortney died this morning. I didn’t know him, but the entire situation is so tragic.

Like I said, it’s been rough, but I would like to get back into things, and this was kind of my hump to get over to start posting again, so expect more (hopefully happier) posts here soon.

  • Very much sadness. I can’t believe all that has happened in such a short time. Love you.

  • Tsuki

    I’m so sorry for all the loss and heartache you’ve been experiencing. It’s good to see you back here.

  • Wow, that a lot to go go through in even a year.

    I’ve been meaning to ask if you are still doing SMAIP?

  • trudging through mud is not easy; at least that’s what it feels like for me sometimes in life. prayers for encouragement and comfort during these difficult losses and other discouraging times you’ve faced or may be facing. it’s good to see your posts again.

  • I’m newer to your blog, but feel so much for you. So much tragedy at one time is a larger dose than anyone should ever have to handle. Try doing small things for yourself when you can, to honor those people and your life and be sure to allow yourself the time you need. Some grieving last a lifetime, as I’m sure you know, but eventually we’re able to still move forward to a place of happiness again. Wishing the best for you. <3

  • I’m so happy to see you are back blogging, as I know that you loved it so much. *hugs* I can’t even begin to imagine what you must be going through. Saying sorry just doesn’t seem enough right now. I’ll just send lots of hugs and love instead.
