I’m Back; Self-Care/Grief

On another note, I know I haven’t made a post since February.  I needed time for self-care.  I last wrote about my grief in losing one of my longtime Fashionably ill readers here; she died of autoimmune complications.  After that, I lost one of my good friends from college.  I needed time to grieve what while also keeping up with writing for my book and preparing my kids for the State Championship.  I coach high school debate.  (Now, the championship is over.)  So I am getting back into blogging.  Some of you sent me condolences after my reader passed away.  Thank you!
