Apologies

Hi all,

 It's been while since I sat down to write a post for the blog. Sadly the last few weeks have been pretty hard for me - after two years battling breast cancer, my Mum passed away the week before Christmas. I haven't really been in the mood for reading or reviewing since and only a couple of prepared posts have gone up. 

 To be honest I've been considering if I want to continue with the blog or not...I'm still on the fence, but I thought I'd try a couple of posts over the next week and ease myself back into it and see if the bug is still there or not.

 Thanks to everyone who read or commented in the last couple of years. I really appreciate all the followers out there and will continue to read other great blogs. It's just the time and effort that goes into my own I've been reconsidering.

 Thanks
Mel xx

    i'm really sorry, i know what it like to loose one parents after an hard illness... it's normal you are not feeling like wanting to read etc u understand and i'm sure all of us do.

    just take your time, it can be long but you will also need to have something to support you could be reading and blogging could be something else but you will find it. just go at your rythm

    take care

    Sooo sorry for your loss. {{huggggs}}
    Everyone grieves differently, but it is perfectly normal to feel completely out of sorts right now and not be interested in doing anything 'normal'... be sure to surround yourself with family and friends who will love and support you through the rough spots.

    Very sorry for your loss.
    Don't worry about your blog. Maybe you should take a few weeks or even months off before you make any decisions. I'm sure your followers would understand.
