I wrote awhile ago that I was struggling with several things, one of them being this blog. I haven’t been able to write much and when I do, it is often a struggle.
I know that people have said, don’t be too drastic, it is okay to just write once in awhile. However, I am going through a lot of health and personal issues and I feel I can’t be there for my readers if I am not there for myself.
I am not saying never, but the for unforeseeable future, I will not be continuing with Being Lydia. I want to thank everyone who has read it, encouraged me and been encouraged by my words.
I remember just after I started the blog almost 4 years ago that two people I got to know well decided that there wasn’t room for blogging in their lives anymore. I couldn’t fathom that at the time. Now I understand it fully.Ā
Thanks again,
Lydia!
Being Lydia! 
Dear Lydia, I send my warmest thoughts your way! I understand what you are saying, and you are right. You need to think about yourself first! But know that people here will always have open arms ready for you, whenever you decide to peek back š I sure will be on the look out! *Big hugs* lovely Lady! xx

Thanks, sweet friend. I believe you may still have my email address and if so, you are most welcome to use it (or the contact form here will remain open). I may still visit the cove from time to time as it is such a serene place to be!

Your health is the most important thing here and I know the decision did not come lightly. There has been times I have away from my own blog for a few months, but it is always nice to come back. Do take care.
