HONESTY

While I have been experiencing internet connection problems, they haven't been the sole reason for my lack of posts in almost a month. The truth is I've been going through some thangs. For one, the job I told you about here, well it has ended and now I'm faced with unemployment yet again. I had an interview at the end of January that seemed very promising but I haven't heard back. It's probably safe to assume I didn't get the job. So, the hunt continues. The whole thing is taking a toll on me and my ego and confidence are really taking a beating. Although I'm trying to keep the faith and stay positive, I must admit, it's getting harder to do each day.

Another reason I haven't been posting is that I've been busy planning for and hosting parties: Pity Parties that is. Lately, I've been having plenty of 'em and they've taken up a great deal of my time and energy. Bed lying, TV watching, binge eating, and spontaneous bursts of ugly crying can really take a lot out of a girl. Before I knew it, 8:30 am quickly turned into 3:00 pm and I'm up waiting on my baby to get off the bus and getting started on dinner. The time I could have spent being a productive blogger, among many other things, was lost and I just went with that.

Also, since I'm being honest, I must mention that lately I've been a little intimidated by many of the blogs I've been reading. It seems so many bloggers are posting either new items, high end designers, and/ or DIYs on a regular basis. Their posts are filled with large hauls, swatches of all the new and latest in cosmetics, room redesigns, etc. I, on the other hand, haven't really done any real shopping in a while, I don't own any high-end designer items, and my DIYing is minimal. Needless to say, I've been feeling a little like I don't have anything worth contributing to the blogosphere.

So, there you have it: the real reasons I haven't posted anything lately.

Now that that's over, stay tuned and/or tune in, I think I've got my mojo working again.
