Wishing all the Mom’s, Stepmom’s, Grandma’s, Nana’s, and dad’s who are moms, a very Happy Mother’s Day! And since I’m a mom, I’m taking the day off from blogging (except for my #DailyHaikuChallenge, of course) 🙂 See you tomorrow!!! Enjoy your day! ❤

Good afternoon (evening, morning) friends,
I will be taking a short break from the world of WordPress. Some of you may have noticed it is taking me some time to reply to comments, etc. My daughter has been ill and I will be spending my time caring for her, trying once and for all to get to the bottom of all of this! I also have my mom with me, who is recuperating from a fractured spine. To say I have my hands full, is putting it mildly. Thank the Lord I have an amazing man by my side, who holds me up. I keep wondering who holds him up!! But I also know, God has us in his hands, and we shall persevere!! ❤
I have scheduled posts to fulfill my obligations with #NaPoWriMo & Morgan’s Daily Haiku Challenge. Please understand that if you do comment, I may not be able to get to you for a bit. I really have no idea when I will actually return.
As always, you are bright spots in my days, and I love this community. I’ll be around when I can…
~Dorinda

Imagine my surprise when I checked my stats and found I have over 100K views! This never could have happened without you, my wonderful readers and friends! I am honored, and humbled, that you find yourself here, and I hope you will continually return.
When I started this blog, I was excited when I had one view. Who knew it would grow to be like this?!! The WordPress community is amazing, and I am thrilled to be a part of it. Thank you all so very much!!
Much Love ❤ ~ Dorinda

Hello Friends,
You may have noticed (or not 
), that I have been remiss in replying to your comments, as well as commenting on your posts. I do apologize, but it is with good reason. If you read my poem from today, “Overwhelmed“, you’ll get a feel from where I’m coming from. I apologize, and am slowly catching up with everyone, a little at a time. I am also battling some health issues, which I do not like to dwell on, but have been more of a nuisance than not, and as such, I am away from my keyboard more than I’d like to be. Please be patient with me. I love reading your posts, it will just take me a bit longer.
A side note ~ if you have a twitter account, please make sure your twitter ID is filled in on the Sharing page (settings -> sharing). I also use this as a way of telling you I loved the piece I read, especially when I don’t have time to comment!!
Love you all,
Dorinda
