My goal for GirlfriendologyToo – since this blog is about inspiring and celebrating creative girlfriends – was to celebrate National Craft Month with daily blogging. All went well until the middle of the month when I was hit with a difficult situation that, to be honest, floored me for a little while. As much as my girlfriends were there to lean on and send good vibes my way, my energy was zapped by the stress and pain of an unfortunate situation. (I wrote it about it on Girlfriendology.)

I retreated to other tasks at hand and neglected this blog for a week. I feel bad but I also know that I needed some time off to take care of me. Girlfriends should be able to do that, right?! I also didn’t feel that it was right to pretend everything was peachy and I was living a vibrant, happy, creative life. Blogs get personal. I just wasn’t at a place to share it, nor did I want to change my tag line from “inspiration, appreciation and celebration” to “desperation, frustration and aggravation”! This is meant as a positive place for women to rekindle their soul and rejuvenate their friendships. Thanks to you, I believe that is happening and I’m thrilled to be a part of it.

So, I apologize for the MIA status and ask for your input on inspiring creative women. I’m thrilled to have lots of creative girlfriends but I want to find out about others – women who are reaching their potential, striving for their dreams, following their bliss. Share your girlfriends and inspiration. We can all use it.

And to my kind, considerate, loving friends – thanks for being there girlfriends! You’re my rock. (And you rock!)

* See the next post I’m going to do about someone who is really following their bliss!
