LIfe can be sad or happy and sometime busy yet I find the dearest hearts are right here, blogging, making others smile with their shares.<br />I started blogging nearly 10 years ago but than my great cousin was blogging about our childhood and he challenged me. SO I did an entire 31 days of blogging about our childhood neighborhood. My cousin Kay went to sLOVEnia to research our grandparents and she has gone twice more since than. I started researching on line about our ancestors too. I can not travel as she can but I delight hearing stories and seeing photos. The same here. You re an encourager and a sweetheart when h=it comes to table setting. I know how hard it is when life throws you those curves but I hope I will see you here as you can. I like to think of my blog as a journal for my kids and grandkids and greats to follow. MUch love and the biggest Colorado hug I can send via blog world. XO Praying for you now and your mom as well. :-)My Tata's Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03316406149678154358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645394115430726687.post-29404774974451635902019-07-28T00:12:36.755-07:002019-07-28T00:12:36.755-07:00Cannot think of tablesetting blog-land without dea...Cannot think of tablesetting blog-land without dear Fabby.

I used to post a lot more but must admit that this entire year, I have been hosting parties but not many posts from me. It is not that I don't have posts to share, I just don't have time to get them ready for a post. But that's OK. I do what works for me and you should too. Your talescapes are incredible and we will all enjoy seeing them when you do have time to share. Taking care of your Mom is important even though it can be difficult <br />Take care my friend.<br />Hugs,<br />BevEclectic Red Barnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07526374597971388139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645394115430726687.post-81524676196017557112019-07-21T15:01:46.996-07:002019-07-21T15:01:46.996-07:00Love your blog !

Your hubby is right....do it for yourself and those that do come by, cause there are more than you think sometimes. I finally adopted that attitude cause my hubby retired last year and I don't have the time<br />I once did either, so I usually only post twice a week most of the time, and if someone<br />leaves a comment it is a bonus and if they don't thats fine too, cause I don't have a lot<br />of time to answer anyway. lol<br />Blogging might be a nice outlet for you right now with having so many other responsibilities and hey it's your blog you just post when you can or when you want to.<br />Sorry about your Mom, we have already been down those roads with our Mom's and they are<br />both home with the Lord now. So I sorta know how it is hon.<br />Blessings to you sweetie, Praying for you.<br />NellieNellie's Cozy Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619797669030115088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645394115430726687.post-82713985822238699662019-07-21T09:47:05.396-07:002019-07-21T09:47:05.396-07:00Fabby, I'm so glad you've decided to conti...Fabby, I'm so glad you've decided to continue blogging, and I adore your charming fish plates and lovely summer table!

That's the fun of tablescaping, creating beauty and respite for family and friends. The fish plates are cute, the fish bowl has such an interesting shape, the place mats are the color of sand and the menu sounds delicious!<br /><br />I haven't been blogging as long as you, but I can relate to the frustrations you're having. And sometimes life gets in the way of enjoying a hobby. But I love your style and your dishes and look forward to seeing your posts.

Oh, I know exactly how you feel about blogging. I almost gave it up but like you, I do love it and just can't. It certainly isn't like it used to be. Your husband gave you some good advice. Glad you're sticking around.

Last year when I was my mom's caregiver and then when she passes away and I had that to deal with along with being the executor of her estate I really pulled back from blogging. My heart wasn't in it. Now, as time has passed and I realize that I missed it and missed my blogging friends I have slowly started to get back in it. I love your posts, and hope you are able to continue on. You would be missed, but it is also important to do what is right for you. xo Laura <br /><br />P.S. I love your fish dishes.

I certainly would never have thought that if you did not mention it...And I love the place mats under the plates...it looks like fish netting!!
