“It’s the good
advice that you just didn’t take”
Song
Title: “Ironic”
Songwriter: Alanis Morissette
Speaking of which,
Isn’t it ironic how the best laid plans sometimes just don’t
work out? Not that I’m not usually busy enough in my workaday world, but we
(the family) seem to have slipped into a veritable vortex of unfortunate events
which (it more than pains me to say) render me quite unable to continue this
year’s challenge with any confidence in achieving any semblance of blogging
entertainment. Sorry, folks. That’s not to say I can’t or won’t still enjoy all
the fantastic A to Z Challenge themes or the immensely interesting regular
posts of friends and fellow bloggers! In fact, I may finally catch up on my
visiting ;-)
In the meantime, love openly, smile often, and hug your
family daily, while you can.
So, how about that line? Does it call to mind a memory? Remind
you of an irony? Are you familiar with the song or songwriter?
There’s
a whole lotta blogging going on right here!
Hi, diedre!
ReplyDeleteI am very sorry to learn that unfortunate events are unfolding behind the scenes and, if I am understanding you, making it necessary for you to drop out of this year's grueling A to Z Challenge. Real life and family always come first. Blogging is a spare time thing, an opportunity to share a part of ourselves, build friendships, learn and teach. Your posts are always entertaining and informative and I remain committed to you if you do decide to finish the race, but taking care of yourself and family should be your priority and clearly you are making a wise decision.
Be well, dear friend diedre!
Thanks for understanding, dear Shady.
DeletedIEDRE, I hope things work out well for y'all and soon.

DeleteReal life before blogging - always. I'm sorry you're having difficulties, diedre and hope things will get better soon, for you and your family. No matter what, your true fans and friends will always be here for you. Whenever you're ready, that is. Take care and best wishes!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Debbie. I'll catch up with your blog soon as I can.

DeleteMy thoughts are with you Diedre
ReplyDeleteK day in Amble Bay!
Thanks, Keith. I'll check in with you and Arthur soon.
DeleteSorry to hear about your situation, but hopefully it's all meant to work out for the best. You can still take your time and finish at your own pace--or not.
ReplyDeleteSo much good advice I was given throughout my life that I refused to heed--usually out of outright stubbornness. My daughters used to love that song and the Morrissette album.
Take care!
