For weeks, I have picked up my smart phone with the intention of tapping out this post – only to put the phone down again.
I have tossed words and sentences around in my mind, searching for accuracy in my meaning.
Only today has it occured to me that I have been waiting for insight and understanding before writting this post.
Since my last post, the ‘energy’ surrounding my blog writing has changed. For over 6 years I have blogged with the pure desire to share, inspire and to personally enjoy. Blogging regularly was never a chore or hard. However something has changed.
For days and weeks, I have struggled to gain meaningful insight as to the cause of the change with no avail. Therefore as I can’t share why, at least I can share the what – that for now I am taking a brake from GreenerMe blogging. Allowing myself the space and time to ponder my current energy and feelings.
When will I return? It may only be days or it may be months or potentially this may be my last blog post – truthfully I don’t know.
Thankyou to YOU. You my loyal, supportive, funny, joyous and kind readers – many of whom I consider friends, though we have never met. The rose below is for you (it is from my garden).
Finally, as always on a positive, I will of course be continuing in my many volunteering community and environmental roles. If you wish to continue following my journey, take a sneak peak at the Green Square Growers, Buxton Community Garden, MacArthur Seed Savers and CWA Piction Branch.
Thank you for sharing the photo of your pretty rose.

I am catching up with my long-neglected blogging buddies this new year’s eve – in between preserving an abundant fruit harvest and trying to stay cool through our second December 2015 heatwave in South Australia.
I too have struggled with blogging regularly this year and decided to just blog randomly when the inspiration to do so happens! I also started up-cycling discarded dolls this year, Sarhn. I just love the crafty/ creative/ waste reduction aspect. Recently, I started my ‘Blue Planet Dolls’ Facebook page and somehow managed to sell a few at a local market. It will only ever be a hobby but it’s nice to be able to cover my costs 🙂
One of my goals for 2016 is to return to blogging about living sustainably and perhaps make it more fun & less serious – less about Climate Change & more about an adaptation/ mitigation way of life.
Thank you for all your inspiring posts and all the best for 2016!

Dear Sarhn,
I was just wondering why I hadn’t heard from you in a while so I dropped in to check up. Then I read this. I hope all is well and you are finding a peaceful replenishing and re-calibration of your spirits.
Just wanted to let you know that you’re missed, but I totally get it. Do your thing!
yours,
James

Ohhhh my James, I have been meaning to respond to your comment for days (more evidence of my need to have time out from blogging). Thank you for your kind words and support in recent times – I value your contribution to this blog. Have a wonderful Christmas James 🙂

Good luck with the time out – better to have a break than to make it into a chore.

I adore blogging but for a time there I was lucky to write a post a fortnight. Now I’m going to try harder. I shall miss you and hope that you will return soon. I do hope that all is ok with you – but I understand. You take care and look after yourself! Hugs

Thank you Julie – you are one of those readers that I consider as a friend. There are plans maybe for next year to visit NZ (visiting family). Who knows maybe we might actually get to meet in person down the track. Hugs back my friend. 🙂
